Mike Tyson, known as "Iron Mike," is set to fight Jake Paul in November 2024. Tyson is 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs about 228 pounds. He is 58 years old, while Paul is 27 and stands at 6 feet 1 inch. The fight has drawn attention due to their 30-year age difference. Tensions escalated during the weigh-in when Tyson slapped Paul, who responded with taunts, claiming Tyson "hits like a bitch." Tyson's health has been a concern after a health scare in May 2024, but he has since recovered and resumed training. He is married to Lakiha Spicer and has several children from different relationships.
