Jake Paul believes Mike Tyson is avoiding a fight with him over concerns that he would knock out the YouTube star.
Paul is currently preparing to face Hasim Rahman Jr at Madison Square Garden next month but had indicated previously that he would like to set up a bout of some description with Tyson. The pair are friends, becoming close when they shared the card for the former heavyweight champion's comeback fight with Roy Jones Jr in 2020.
That night, the pair combined to sell a monstrous 1.8million pay-per-views, and have maintained a close bond in the years that have followed. But rumours continue to swirl about the duo eventually joining forces for another major PPV, this time as opponents.
