The upcoming brawl between Iron Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is the most anticipated fight of the year.

Ticket prices are high, Tyson will be 58 years old, and Jake Paul is a relatively new fighter who hasn’t faced a man of Tyson’s caliber.

But Jake Paul is ready. In fact, he’s jacked. Positively yoked. He’s got his weight up. Check it out:

Jake Paul Ready for Battle

It’s a good think Paul has been living in the gym, because facing Mike Tyson is like bungee jumping. You will probably live, but you might not.

At least, that’s the impression I get from Tyson’s training videos. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be on the wrong side of the Baddest Man on the Planet?

It’s something like this:

See what I mean? Paul had better come yoked! He’s also seeming pretty confident these days.

“They call him Iron Mike Tyson, but I’m Titanium Jake Paul.”

“I’m going to show the world that I can outbox Mike Tyson, prove everyone wrong, and show that I will be the one doing the killing,” Paul said.

Tyson Not So Sure?

That’s a stark contrast from the mixed messages we’re getting from the Champ. Rather than sounding confident, Tyson sounds like a man who is about to turn 58 years old and took his fair share of shots.

“My body is s— right now,” he confessed at a press tour stop at the legendary Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York. “I’m really sore.”

That’s to be expected at his age. Most 58 year olds are counting down the days to Social Security, not the days to getting punched in the face by a giant man half his age.

But Tyson has been waffling back and forth in his confidence – and he admits that he has serious anxiety before every fight.

This doesn’t sounds like a man who is very anxious, though:

I honestly have no idea what to expect from this fight. It looks like both men are training seriously and both want to win.

I surely wouldn’t want to get in the ring with Jake Paul. But as I’ve explained elsewhere, I’d rather jump out of a plane without a parachute than square up against the greatest, Kid Dynamite.
