Fans concerned as Mike Tyson training footage resurfaces after ‘medical emergency’ ahead of Jake Paul fight
Footage of Mike Tyson on a treadmill has resurfaced following his ‘medical emergency’.
Fans are very concerned for Mike Tyson as training footage has resurfaced ahead of his fight against Jake Paul amid his ‘medical emergency’.
Tyson suffered a scare on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles as he suffered a ‘medical emergency’.
He received urgent medical treatment for an ulcer flare as he became nauseous and dizzy on the plane.
According to his representatives, he’s now ‘doing great’ as he looks to return to action against Paul on July 20.
But fight fans have expressed their concerns for the boxing legend after footage of him on a treadmill has resurfaced amid his medical incident.
Footage shows Tyson struggling on a treadmill, albeit not a normal machine.

People on social media made their feelings clear about his pro fight against Paul as they slammed the YouTuber-turned-boxer for facing the 57-year-old.
One X user wrote: “He is an old man and I hope he don’t get hurt. Against Roy jones they was both old but he’s about to fight a young strong man. Even if it is an exhibition the punches still hit.”
A second pleaded: “Oh my goodness… please cancel the fight.”
A third added: “Please stop this fight. I don’t want to see it anymore.”
A fourth wrote: “He’s so done Jake Paul should be ashamed.”
A fifth argued: “These aren’t normal treadmills. I looked just like Mike, my first time on one of these! They are very different and difficult. If you don’t train, you wouldn’t know.”
Tyson hasn’t had a pro content since June 2005 when he lost to Ireland’s Kevin McBride.
However, he faced fellow great Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition bout back in November 2020.
The former world heavyweight champion looks to be in great shape, having documented his training camp, showing off his legendary power and hand speed.
But fans are worried for when he returns to the ring.
