Lennox Lewis worried about Jake Paul

Former heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis is more worried about YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul than 57-year-old Mike Tyson as they gear up for a showdown in Texas on July 20.

Concern for Mike Tyson's health

Despite concerns over Iron Mike's health and safety, Lewis, who knocked out Tyson in 2002, believes that Jake Paul is the one who might be in trouble during the fight.

The upcoming fight will see Tyson and Paul using bigger 14oz gloves instead of the usual 10oz, and they will fight over eight rounds lasting two minutes each.

Jake Paul's boxing journey

Paul, with a record of 9-1 as a boxer, will face Tyson in his first heavyweight fight after defeating opponents like Tommy Fury's brother and winning three times since.

Potential boxing comeback for Lewis

While there were talks of a rematch between Lewis and Tyson under exhibition rules, Lewis, aged 58, has not ruled out a boxing comeback, stating that he would consider it if the offer is right.
