Mike Tyson takes on Jake Paul on November 15.
The fight was originally scheduled for July 20th but was rescheduled after ‘Iron Mike’ suffered an ulcer flare-up forcing him out of the fight.
Much has been made of the huge age gap between the pair with Tyson turning 58 just two days ago and having not fought professionally since 2005 when he suffered a sad defeat to Kevin McBride.
But former world champion, Ricky Hatton believes the the former baddest man on the planet is capable of knocking the YouTuber turned boxer into the ‘middle of next week’.
Speaking to Prime Casino he said: “I do think if Mike hits Jake Paul, he will knock him into the middle of next week, but at 58 years old – he looks explosive on the pads – but can he maintain that in round two, three and four.
“He may well be able to dish it out but is he going to be able to take what’s coming back?”
Paul now takes on former UFC star Mike Perry on the July 20th date before his clash with Tyson at the end of the year.
