According to The Sun's Ryan Parry and James Desborough, Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are talking about an exhibition in Las Vegas.
Tyson fought to a draw with Roy Jones Jr. in his last fight. He has defeated Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley.
A source said Tyson and Paul brokered a verbal agreement on the general details but that the details still need to be worked out. The event can generate up to $36 million according to the involved parties.
During an appearance on the Full Send Podcast in October, Tyson said that it would be easy to knock out Paul. He would feel uneasy because of his family's feelings for Paul.
He said he would be against his family. They love this little white motherf--ker. You know what I mean? He has balls.
Tyson might be able to put his mind at ease with a large amount of money.
Paul will face a different challenge than Askren and Woodley did when they faced the 25-year-old.
Tyson's last professional fight was back in 2005. The former champion has punching power.
The 6'1" Paul won't have a bigger advantage than Tyson. Both Askren and Woodley won their classes in MMA.
Iron Mike would likely be the toughest test for the Ohio native in his burgeoning boxing career if the fight happens.
