Mike Tyson is a man with a plan. The former world heavyweight champion already has a strategy mapped out to take down Jake Paul in their fight on November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. And the influencer-turned-boxer should be worried.
Once known as "The Baddest Man on the Planet," Tyson was a knockout machine during his prime. He won 50 of his 58 fights, lost six, and had two no-contests. Out of his 50 wins, a staggering 44 were by knockout, with 24 of those knockouts coming in the first round.
Mike Tyson's devastating strategy to obliterate Jake Paul revealed
If that isn't enough to make the younger Paul nervous, Tyson holds several of the fastest knockouts in boxing history, two of which stand out for their sheer speed and power. In 1985, "Iron Mike" flattened Robert Colay in just 37 seconds, and in 1986, he obliterated Marvis Frazier in 30 seconds.
So it's no surprise that Tyson's strategy heading into the November 15 bout is simple and ruthless: bombard Paul with one powerful shot after another until he's down. That's how one of the former champ's team members described it.
Tyson's missiles
A recent video posted by Tyson's team on YouTube shows the ex-champ hitting mitts during a training session. Each punch echoes through the gym, as a team member confidently states, "If the fight were today, Jake Paul would be done."
"He throws missiles, not just one bomb," the trainer explains. "The bombs, they come one after another." The video is intimidating enough on its own, but the trainer's words make it clear what Paul should expect come fight night.
In short, Jake Paul is heading into an all-out war. "We're not looking to throw just one bomb. We want to throw missile after missile," the trainer emphasized.
Paul's response
Amid the looming threat, Paul isn't resting. He's been following a strict training regimen, as shown in the impressive physique he regularly flaunts in videos on his social media.
But Paul remains true to his influencer roots, keeping the humor alive even as the fight approaches. In a recent video, he wore a fat suit, mocking Tyson's earlier jibe, where the boxing legend called him "fat." The clip shows Paul running on a treadmill and jumping rope, catching deodorant cans thrown at him, and playfully using them as props.
Many fans and analysts are worried about Tyson's health, citing the 30-year age difference between the fighters. Others still believe it's all a publicity stunt and doubt the fight will even take place. The truth will be revealed on November 15, when Tyson and Paul finally square off in one of the most talked-about bouts of the year.
