Boxing legend, Mike Tyson returned to the sport in November 2020, in an exhibition fight against Roy Jones Jr., and is considering new alternatives for his future. In an interview with the show 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', the North American left open the possibility of measuring forces against Jake Paul. He still values the YouTuber's recent achievements as a 'noble art'.

“This could be very interesting. I never took it seriously, but yes, this could be very interesting. Jake (Paul) is skilled enough, yes. He is winning. Even if he's fighting guys you don't believe are good enough, they should be able to beat him, but they can't. He's hitting people he shouldn't be hitting. So you have to give him that credit. Furthermore, he is also doing good for boxing as he has millions of people following him every time he fights. He's helping everyone get money. Why are people mad at him?” Tyson said.
At 55 years old, Mike, who had been retired from professional boxing since 2005, returned to the ring in an exhibition fight against veteran Roy Jones Jr. On that occasion, the fight ended in a draw, but it 'kindled' a desire in 'Iron', which speculates on other duels in the sport.
Coincidentally, Jake Paul took his first steps in boxing on the 'Tyson x Jones Jr.' card, when he knocked out former NBA athlete Nate Robinson. Since then, he has had three other fights and passed former UFC athletes Ben Askren and Tyron woodley. He is still undefeated in five fights.
