Lennox Lewis considers a comeback

Former boxing champion Lennox Lewis is open to the idea of coming out of retirement for a rematch with Mike Tyson, but there's a catch - Tyson must first defeat Jake Paul in their upcoming fight.

Controversial clash on the horizon

Mike Tyson is set to face YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul on November 15 in a match that has faced criticism due to the significant 30-year age gap between the fighters.

Lewis keeping a close watch

Lennox Lewis has expressed interest in a potential rematch with Tyson and is closely monitoring the outcome of the Tyson vs. Paul fight. When asked about the possibility, Lewis responded, "Let's see how he makes out in this fight, and then I'll tell you after."

Paul's boxing record and Tyson's comeback

Jake Paul, 27, boasts ten wins and one loss in his boxing career, with his only defeat coming in a split decision loss to Tommy Fury. Meanwhile, Mike Tyson is returning to professional boxing for the first time since 2005, following an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020.

Back in the ring after two decades

It has been over two decades since Lennox Lewis knocked out Tyson in their 2002 bout, where they shared a £36m purse. Now, Lewis, aged 59, believes Tyson has what it takes to defeat Paul, who is 30 years his junior.

Lewis stated, "If he's in good shape he should be able to take it," showing his support for Tyson in the upcoming match.
