Former heavyweight world champion Mike Tyson, ahead of his fight with blogger Jake Paul, stated that he does not feel his age of 58.
Tyson said in an interview with Henry Cejudo:
People design their own calendar, so we don't know how old we are. Our man's biggest downfall is to believe we have limitations and that's what we do, we believe we're a certain amount of age. I don't think I'm 58. Do you think I feel 58 when I'm fighting these young n------ in the gym. You think I feel 58? Young 30, 28 year old mother------.
The showdown between Tyson and Paul is set to take place on November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, USA.
