Mike Tyson may be 58 years old but he looks absolutely shredded just a day away from his fight against Jake Paul in a special boxing event airing live on Netflix.
During the official weigh-ins Thursday, Tyson hit the scale looking like he really put in a hard training camp to get ready for his first professional fight in nearly 20 years. There’s no word on how much Tyson weighed because the weigh-ins were closed to the public and the media with Paul’s company Most Valuable Promotions responsible for releasing the info, per the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.

In the days leading up to the fight, Tyson has stayed rather stoic while insisting that he’s just interested in getting back in the ring rather than going through any further promotional bluster. Now he sits just over 24 hours away from throwing down with Paul in a special eight-round fight.
Meanwhile, Paul also looked like he was in great shape as he moves up to the heavyweight division for the chance to face a legend in Tyson.
Paul often joked during his training camp about the amount of weight he was packing on for the fight against Tyson.
Now with the official weigh-ins completed, Paul and Tyson face off one last time at the ceremonial weigh-ins, which are scheduled to kick off at 7 p.m. ET on Thursday.
