Mike Tyson, 57, suffers medical scare during flight to Los Angeles – just two months before fight with 27-year-old Jake Paul

Mike Tyson suffered a medical scare during a flight from Miami to Los Angeles on Sunday, his representatives confirmed.

The former heavyweight champion, 57, became nauseous and dizzy and flight staff even asked passengers if there was a doctor on board to provide assistance.

Paramedics boarded the plane, which was delayed two hours in Miami due to the heat, after it landed in Los Angeles to treat him.

There are just two months left before the boxing legend faces Jake Paul in Dallas.

“Fortunately, Mr. Tyson is doing well,” his representatives say told The New York Post.

‘He became nauseous and dizzy due to a flare-up of a stomach ulcer 30 minutes before landing.

“He is grateful for the medical staff who were there to help him.”

It comes next In Touch unveiled for the first time that Tyson “had a medical emergency on the plane and paramedics boarded.”

Sources claim that the cabin crew “made an announcement 30 minutes before landing asking for a doctor and the message even appeared on everyone’s screen.”

“He was in first class, but we sat in a row near the exit,” the eyewitness added.

“They asked us to stay on the plane and it landed so paramedics could get in. [The stewardess] said something like, “He’s a very important passenger, so we want to make sure he’s okay.” “I knew it was him, but I just said the words ‘Mike Tyson’ and she nodded yes.”

Once the plane landed at LAX, there was another delay of about 25 minutes while paramedics treated Tyson.

Tyson turns 58 on July 20 when the fight against Jake Paul takes place at AT&T Stadium.

The fight has been marred by criticism in recent weeks, mainly due to the huge age difference between the two fighters.

‘I don’t see many people who are critical of it. Look at this,” Tyson said at a press conference earlier this month.

When a reporter suggested there were critics, Tyson said, “Who? Name me someone. You? WHO?’

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation classifies the fight as a professional fight, but it will be eight two-minute rounds instead of ten or twelve rounds of three minutes each.

The gloves will be heavier (14 ounces instead of 10), which should reduce the force of punches.

Tyson retired in 2005 but recently fought Roy Jones in California in a November 2020 exhibition, which would not declare it a pro fight.

Tyson was particularly annoyed by the scene and the questions, even when he was asked what it meant to have the opportunity to fill AT&T Stadium.

“I did this years ago, so this is nothing new to me,” said Tyson, who won 50 fights with 44 knockouts before retiring. “This is new for this young boy here.”
