Logan Paul has warned Mike Tyson that he may not be aware what he is in for when he returns to the ring next week.
The social media sensation and WWE star will be ringside to watch his brother Jake Paul take on one of the most fearsome punchers in boxing history on Friday night. The pair will compete at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas in front of a crowd expected to be in the region of 80,000.
And the elder Paul, who himself has boxed against the likes of Floyd Mayweather, believes the task will be too big for an aged Tyson. The legendary heavyweight last competed in an exhibition four years ago, and professionally in 2005.

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul arrive in Dallas for massive fight week
After almost a year of build-up, one rescheduled date and even an entirely different Jake Paul bout, we have finally arrived at fight week for Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson. The duo have touched down in Dallas ahead of the mega-fight, which broadcasts live on Netflix.
The pair made their first appearances for a pre-fight photoshoot today, with Paul set to do a meet and greet with fans tomorrow. They will both step into the ring for an open workout on Tuesday, before a first face-off on Wednesday.
Tyson has looked solid in recent sparring videos, but Tuesday’s open workout will be the first time he shows off his skills in front of an audience. Meanwhile, Paul claims to have tacked on as much as 30lb from his July win over Mike Perry, so his workout will also be fascinating.
Logan Paul channels Jake Paul in comical message to Mike Tyson
During his bulking period, Jake Paul used to goad Tyson by dressing in a fat suit, complete with his recognisable set of tattoos. At his lowest during his pro career, Paul managed to get under 184lb and was eyeing a move down to 175lb to face Canelo Alvarez.
But he needed the towel to make the cruiserweight limit of 199lb for Perry, and has since continued moving up in weight. The 10-1 Ohio native is now said to be in the region of 230lb for his first heavyweight bout.
And his brother Logan copied his flow with a new video showing off his ‘dad bod’ after becoming a father earlier this year. He sported a gut of his own, with fast food and junk wrappers littering the floors around him.
But his message was not a joke, telling Tyson: “Let’s go Jake, Mike Tyson, you don’t even know. You messing with the Pauls bruh. Let’s go Jake, first round knockout, yeet.” In an additional story post he added: “@MikeTyson, ur cooked.”
