Hall of Fame fighter Tim Bradley has made his prediction ahead of Mike Tyson’s fight against Jake Paul on November 15.
The former heavyweight champion returns to the ring for his first professional fight in nearly twenty years next month when he takes on the YouTuber-turned-boxer who is over thirty years his junior.
The 58-year-old had to postpone the original July date due to an ulcer flare-up, but now insists he’s training better than ever and is vowing to end Paul’s fledgling boxing career.
Bradley, a former two-weight world champion, has watched some of Tyson’s training clips and told ProBox TV that he is backing ‘Iron Mike’ to knockout ‘Disney Boy’.
“Mike Tyson, knock his a** out, baby! At first, I thought about it, I was like this is kind of crazy but then I saw the rules. It said knockouts, knockdowns. It’s official, it can happen. Two minutes – that’s going to favour Mike Tyson.
Two minutes instead of three, no doubt about it. Think about it, two-minute drill. He comes out in the first four rounds like he’s always blazing, Mike Tyson, getting him against the ropes, banging him to the body, hitting him with power shots, come on, man. He has the potential to knock this man out. You know that the power is the last thing that leaves you. You haven’t seen those little training videos, those aren’t sped up.
This is Mike Tyson we’re talking about … Two minutes. That’s all it takes. He can get the knockout. Knock Disney Boy the hell out.”
The fight is now just under four weeks away and will be streamed live on Netflix as part of a standard subscription.
