The much-anticipated fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is approaching. The old legend vs. rising star gimmick might have created some backlash. Nevertheless, the fighting community is eagerly awaiting this compelling showdown. In fact, Tyson’s disciple Francis Ngannou has even shared his bits on the upcoming Tyson vs. Paul boxing bout.

Francis Ngannou recently appeared as a guest on a podcast episode with Jake Paul. During the episode, he shared insights into his life story, discussed the controversy with Dana White, and touched on various other topics. The conversation even delved into the upcoming Tyson vs. Paul fight. At one point, one of the co-hosts asked Ngannou about his thoughts on the potential of Iron Mike scoring a KO victory.

Either way I think Mike Tyson will beat you (Jake Paul) up… We are talking about Mike, bro. Mike is something else. Mike will move from this side to this side without you knowing… I mean knowing Mike, I think Mike, I just believe that Mike will beat him…Francis Ngannou via BS w/ Jake Paul

Francis Ngannou seemed quite confident in Tyson’s capabilities even at 58. However, unlike Ngannou, several prominent individuals in the community feel Iron Mike’s stamina will betray him against Paul. Interestingly, the former UFC champ has even trained with the boxing legend. As such, this might be one of the reasons why Ngannou is positive about the outcome of the fight in favor of Tyson.

Jake Paul has frequently verbally attacked the 58-year-old Mike Tyson. Their recent altercation took place at the NYC Fanatics Fest, where they even pushed each other in front of the crowd. Interestingly, this isn’t the first time Francis Ngannou has predicted Mike Tyson’s victory over Jake Paul. Although Paul didn’t have much to say this time, he was visibly upset after Ngannou’s initial prediction.

The Tyson vs. Paul fight is scheduled for November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Ahead of that intriguing matchup, there are several unattended questions. As such, the 58-year-old’s health concerns are one of the top puzzles ahead of their fight. Meanwhile, the former UFC heavyweight champion thinks otherwise.

Ngannou recently attended a PFL press conference ahead of his debut for the promotion. During the conference, reporters asked Ngannou about Mike Tyson’s upcoming fight. Ngannou confidently stated that the 58-year-old is currently performing well in the gym and predicted Tyson’s victory. However, Jake Paul found Ngannou’s statement amusing and discussed it in a recent interview with TMZ.

‘The Problem Child’ also mentions the threat that Tyson possesses. As such, Paul believes he will have to play out the early rounds strategically. As of now, both boxers are quite clear with their game plan. Now, it remains to be seen who implements it better on their fight night.
