Mike Tyson retired from professional boxing in 2005. After his retirement, the boxing legend participated in a couple of exhibition bouts. However, his recent fight against Jake Paul marked his return to professional boxing. Interestingly, many people in the community expressed concerns about this matchup due to the significant age difference between Paul and Tyson.

I don’t remember the fight that much, I kind of blanked out a little… Know what I remember? I remember coming back fromthe first round, and Jake is doing some kind of, I don’t know what he was doing (a bow). That’s the last thing I remember.
