Roy Jones Jr. was the last person to face off against Mike Tyson, and he gave some insight about the former heavyweight champion ahead of his bout with\u00a0Jake Paul\u00a0over the summer.<\/p>\n

\"Jake<\/p>\n

Jones and Tyson were among the best of their respective eras. But the two didn\u2019t get to fight until their exhibition bout in November 2020. Paul was also on that card, knocking out former NBA player Nate Robinson.<\/p>\n

Five years later, Tyson will square off against Paul at AT&T Stadium on July 20 in Arlington, Texas. Jones recalled getting hit in the stomach by Tyson and made clear that the former champion still packs a punch.<\/p>\n

“The first time he hit me in the chest, it felt like a mule had kicked me in the chest,” Jones told\u00a0Shane Mosley\u00a0on his YouTube show. “If he hits anybody with a shot like that, they are either going out or down, especially guys who are not used to being hit like that. With these types of people like Evander Holyfield and Lennox Lewis, these guys are bigger and can take it.”<\/p>\n

“But\u00a0Jake Paul, I don\u2019t think he\u2019s going to be able to take that. It might hit him on the chin like that, we\u2019ll see, but it\u2019s going to be tough.”<\/p>\n

Despite\u00a0multiple social media posts\u00a0showing his training sessions, Tyson told\u00a0Fox News Channel\u2019s Sean Hannity\u00a0this month he was “scared to death” going into his fight against Paul.<\/p>\n

“I have a weird personality. I don’t think it’s weird though. Whatever I’m afraid to do, I do it. That’s how it is,” Tyson said. “I was afraid of the [Roy Jones Jr. fight in 2020].<\/p>\n

“I was 100 pounds overweight, I was, however, old \u2013 54, 53 \u2013 and I said, \u2018Let\u2019s do it.’ Anything I’m afraid of, I confront it. That’s my personality. Right now, I’m scared to death.”<\/p>\n

But that’s what pushes Tyson to get back in the ring.<\/p>\n

“I always believed that adversity and nervousness pretty much catapulted me into success,” Tyson said. “If I didn’t have these feelings, I wouldn’t go into this fight. I have to have these feelings to fight. Without them, I would never go in the ring.”<\/p>\n

However, when “reality” sets in, Tyson will be all business, and the butterflies will float away.<\/p>\n
