Famous British boxer Lennox Lewis weighed in on the upcoming fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, scheduled for November 16 in Arlington, USA.
Lewis stated in an interview with the YouTube channel TMZSports:
I would hope he would go into a fight where he would win. He’s a boxer, he knows how to protect himself, he knows how to throw body shots, he knows how to cut off the ring. I haven’t seen him lately to know if he can take it, but I have seen him looking muscular, so of course he can take it if he is in good shape.
Paul last fought against Mike Perry in July this year, winning by technical knockout in the sixth round. His boxing record now boasts 10 wins (seven by knockout) and one loss.
Tyson last stepped into the ring against Roy Jones in a special exhibition match in November 2020, which ended in a draw after going the full distance. Tyson's career record includes 50 wins (44 by knockout) and six losses.
