Iron Mike's legendary mentor and coach Cus Da'Amato, who once trained Ali, was also born on that day.
Tyson, 55 years old, couldn't believe the news when YouTuber informed him that he shared the same birthday with two of the most important names in boxing.
Paul, 24 years old, said that Mike Tyson was smart and wise when he sat next to him on his podcast. He spent 20 minutes preaching knowledge and was sat beside me for almost 20 minutes.
"And he says, "Bro, you're GOAT, January 17th People are not to be played with."
He was astonished when I told him my birthday. He was a bit freaked out. He was literally terrified and said, "I see it now." It all makes sense."
Paul is now 5-0 as a professional fighter and recently defeated Tyron Woodley (39), who he beat for the first time on points in August.

Tommy Fury was supposed to be his opponent, but he pulled out with a broken bone and was replaced by Woodley.
Paul refused to fight Fury upon his return next Year.
He stated that he didn't know where the next step was on his roadmap. I've done everything, I've achieved what I want.
"I need to stop, I have been doing this non-stop for over a year and half and it's a lot.
"I'm tired, I need to spend some time with my family at Christmas, and then go on vacation. I haven't been on vacation since I was 18, so I'm not sure what to do.
"I said to myself, "Not until you feel like your life is in a place where you can afford a vacation." And I am.
"This will be my first vacation without any obligations. I've been on vacations that required me to film, vlog, interview and get up at a specific time for work.
"I'm on a real vacation, doing backflips in the water. I'll return whenever I feel like it."
