Mike Tyson will take on Jake Paul in a boxing match next month, but the 58-year-old's preparations have been far from conventional.
Mike Tyson could face a boxing ban if he adopts the same approach as his 2020 bout with Roy Jones Jr. The former heavyweight champion is set to enter the ring against YouTube sensation Jake Paul in Texas this November.
Initially planned for July this year, the fight was postponed due to Tyson suffering an ulcer flare-up, leading to a rescheduled date. Tyson has been candid about his consumption of marijuana and magic mushrooms, claiming they helped him recover during training and that he was under their influence during his fight with Jones Jr.
On a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Tyson was questioned about his potential state during the upcoming fight with Paul. The seriousness of Tyson's remarks remains uncertain, yet the Texas Commission has previously issued penalties for positive marijuana tests. Last year, lightweight prospect Keyshawn Davis faced a 90-day suspension on these grounds.
