Mike Tyson reveals training details for fight against Jake Paul

According to the former heavyweight world champion, training is taking its toll on Mike Tyson.

Tyson, 58, said things are “a little shaky” as he prepares to fight 27-year-old Jake Paul.

“Right now, it's hard for me to walk,” said Tyson, who mentioned that he trains three to four times a day. “But in two months, I'll be perfect.”

Tyson, who was sidelined for several weeks after suffering a stomach ulcer, spoke Friday about preparations for his Nov. 15 fight against Paul, answering personal questions and providing commentary during an event hosted by Cage Wars, a mixed martial arts promotion.

The MMA fight took place in Schenectady, New York, just an hour after Tyson became the youngest heavyweight champion in boxing history.

Mike Tyson is scheduled to fight Jake Paul in November.

One of the regular Cage Wars commentators told Tyson that Friday's event would start three hours earlier than usual.

“Is this so you can get a good night's sleep and get up early tomorrow to start training for Jake Paul?” the announcer asked. “We're trying to get you out of here a little early tonight?”
