News about Mike Tyson

Undisputed world super-bantamweight champion Naoya Inoue recovered from the first knockdown of his professional career to stop Luis Nery in devastating fashion. The 31-year-old Japanese, who has held world titles at four different weights and two undisputed, went down in the first round, but picked himself up to secure a sixth-round victory after putting his Mexican opponent down for the third time with a brutal right hand. Nery stunned both the champion and a 55,000 sell-out crowd at the Tokyo Dome in Japan, where Buster Douglas shocked Mike Tyson in 1990, when barely two minutes into the fight he floored Inoue with a swinging left hook.

Young people under the age of 27 believe old age hits you in your late 50s, with retirement primarily involving sitting in an armchair (20 per cent) and 'pottering' around (16 per cent). But Boomers believe 60 is the new 40, with two thirds of participants saying they felt more youthful than they are. One in five Boomers feel up to 20 years younger than their true age, according to the study, with a fifth (18 per cent) saying they're having the time of their lives. Boomers are the most active generation, typically spending four more hours outdoors outside of work hours compared to young adults and Millennial workers. And they're most likely to enjoy travelling and exploring new places, and are more likely to spend time exercising (56 per cent) compared to 18 to 27-year-olds who were least likely (39 per cent).

Mike Tyson admitted he constantly blew money on lawsuits after 'getting caught up in a vortex of destroying' during his newfound fame during his initial rise in boxing. Tyson won his first world championship at 20, less than two years into his professional career.  And he did so in dazzling fashion, winning 26 of his first 28 professional fights via knockout. 

The sanctioned professional fight features a glaring age difference between the 27-year-old Paul and Tyson, who will be 58 by fight night. Still, many fans believe that Tyson's knockout power and killer instinct from his prime will transcend youth and lead him to victory. However, De La Hoya sits on the other side of the fence. In an interview with TMZ Sports , The Golden Boy warned Iron Mike to 'be careful.' 'I'm gonna pray for Mike Tyson, 'cause I love Mike Tyson,' De La Hoya said. 'I think Jake Paul, look, he's a real fighter. He really is. It's a dangerous fight. Mike Tyson, be careful, please.'

Legendary heavyweight Tyson (left), 57, is continuing to gear up for his one-off return to the ring against Paul (inset), the YouTuber-turned-boxer, at the AT&T Stadium in Texas. The exhibition bout will be broadcast live on Netflix on July 20, a first for the online streaming giant, and will see the two fighters, who have a 30-year age gap between them, lock horns in front of a capacity crowd of 80,000 people. Tyson has not fought since scrapping with fellow icon Roy Jones Jr across eight rounds in November 2020 and is looking for marginal gains to earn himself a potential advantage over Paul, who has fought professionally on 10 occasions. Indeed, he has abstained from sex with his wife Lakiha Spicer (bottom right) and cannabis (top right) since the fight was announced.

There is a 30-year gap in their ages but boxing icons have cautioned Paul about his opponent's immense power. Jones Jr fought Tyson in 2020, a split decision draw which was billed as the 'Lockdown Knockdown' and generated over £63million in revenue.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW BY DOMINIC KING: The numbers and anecdotes that will boggle your mind will arrive in due course but first Sir Anthony McCoy wants to explain his apprehension. A landmark birthday is approaching - he'll be 50 next Saturday - and saying the number out loud leads to a grimace. In his head, he feels no different to the young man from Moneyglass in County Antrim who arrived on these shores aged 20 in August 1994, driving "my little Peugeot 205" into Toby Balding's yard burning with dreams and desire. McCoy could control almost everything in his life, from championship races to the kind of pain that would make most of us faint, but not the ageing process. Nor will he be able to shape events at the Tottenham Stadium this afternoon, something that will leave this Arsenal devotee tormented.

A bizarre viral moment from boxer Mike Tyson led to concerns from fans of his as he prepares for a fight against Jake Paul in a few months. Tyson's running form in a video captioned 'I'm coming for you' had some worried about the health and physical shape the former heavyweight champion is currently in. But the boxer's ex-trainer, Brad Rowe, told USA Today Sports that there's no need to fear for Tyson's health.

Jake Paul is doubling down on his $10 million MMA offer to Jorge Masvidal and the Problem Child's former boxing opponent, Nate Diaz. After moving from YouTube stardom to boxing and the promotion-side of the sport, Paul now has his eyes on making his MMA debut - and he wants to do it against someone with some name power within the sport. Paul has publicly offered to pay $10 million to either Masvidal or Diaz for the chance to fight them in the cage, but the former responded dismissively on the MMA Hour: 'Are you kidding me? You can't even box. Now you're going to fight in MMA?' Now, on his own podcast, Paul has doubled down on the offer despite Masvidal's comments.

The survey, conducted by The Athletic, saw Clark beat out names like Patrick Mahomes, Mike Tyson, Shohei Ohtani, and Lionel Messi.

Boxing remains one of the most unpredictable sports in the world, and fans and pundits alike were left looking foolish once more this weekend when Ryan Garcia pulled off a stunning upset win over Devin Haney in New York. Garcia's talent has never been in question, but few gave him a prayer of beating the ultimate professional Haney on Saturday night, and with good reason. His pre-fight preparations could be summed up in one word - chaotic. Garcia and Haney shared three wins apiece when they fought each other in the amateurs, but since turning over to the professional ranks their careers had gone down very different paths.

Jake Paul has offered $10m (£8.08m) to two UFC legends to fight him in an MMA battle, despite having the Mike Tyson exhibition boxing bout to prepare for.

Conor McGregor has told Ryan Garcia's detractors to 'stay out of our ears' before lumping praise on the 25-year-old fighter, after he stunned the boxing world, to claim a majority decision victory against Devin Haney in Brooklyn on Saturday.  Bedlam ensued in the Barclays Centre arena after the boxer - whose bizarre and troubling antics in the run-up to the fight had concerned many within the sport - knocked the WBC super-lightweight champion to the canvas three times. Ahead of the fight, the Californian native was seen preparing in his locker room with a string quartet playing in the background. Garcia also posted a video of boxing legend Mike Tyson, who is set to take on Jake Paul in July, dropping by his dressing room to wish him good luck.

During the preliminary fights, DAZN's coverage featured both Garcia and Haney's backstage preparation as they gear up to take the ring in the headliner. Garcia, whose bizarre social media activity has concerned fans in the buildup, added another layer to the intrigue by warming up to classical music. The Victorville, California native had a string quartet playing while he stretched and got his hands wrapped. Shortly after, Garcia posted a video of Tyson stopping by his dressing room as the musicians scored his preparation.

Mike Tyson brawled topless with Shannon 'The Cannon' Briggs after a street reunion in Brooklyn - as the pair were surrounded by fans. Tyson was revisiting old sites from his history ahead of the summer's highly anticipated Netflix fight against YouTuber Jake Paul. Iron Mike moved to Brownsville, Brooklyn, as a ten-year-old, and continued to live there much through his childhood, finding himself scared to leave the house because of the neighbourhood's reputation and his own family's struggles with poverty.

Netflix 's crackdown on password sharing might have been bad news for many of us still lurking on our friends' accounts. But for the streaming giant, the risky move has now translated into soaring profits and record subscriber numbers. In the first three months of 2024, Netflix added 9.3 million new customers, bringing its total subscriber base to almost 270 million thanks to big hits like Society of the Snow (top right) and Fool Me Once (bottom right). And with subscription prices on the rise, this has given the company a quarterly profit of more than $2.3bn (£1.85bn) - up from $1.3bn (£1bn) in 2023. However, the company also revealed that it will no longer be reporting its subscriber numbers from next year, sparking concerns that growth may soon slow.
