Mike Tyson claimed that he owed money from Roy Jones Jr's comeback fight.

Triller reported that it sold 1.6 million buys, which brought in an impressive PS60m in box-office revenue.

Iron Mike, 55 years old, is believed that he earned PS7.4m in return bouts but he has claimed the amount has not been paid.

Tyson was asked if he was paid by Nelk Boys' podcast. Tyson responded: "Most of the time, but there are still a few that have held up, and I can't even talk about this."

"Yeah, that was really difficult."

SunSport reached out to Triller in order for comments.

After Tyson's commercial success, he acknowledged that boxing had become more burdensome after his comeback.

He stated, "I don’t think I will [fight] but you never know."

"Every 12 to13 months, boom, there is something missing. It's like, something is missing. Boom, I am missing muscle mass. Boom, there's always something else.

"Guys want me to fight them for $100 million. I doubt I'll ever do that again.

"I wanted it to be fun and I did it the first time. It was fun for some people to take it to the next level and make it financially lucrative.

Tyson announced his intention to fight again quickly and was believed to be in talks to rekindle old rivals Evander Holyfield (59) and Lennox Lewis (56).

Logan Paul and Jake Paul, YouTuber stars, were linked to the youngest heavyweight champion ever.

SunSport reported that Tyson and Jake had reached a verbal deal for an exhibition in Las Vegas.

Iron Mike, however, admitted that the fight against the 5-0 social media sensation was dead.

Tyson stated that he was not interested in this work.

"If it was back in the beginning, yes. If we were fighting on the same cards and both active, I would do it. But it just turned out bad.

"It didn’t work out right."
