Jake Paul was asked if his fight against Mike Tyson is rigged while hooked up to a lie detector.

Paul vs. Tyson has been rescheduled for November 15 following the cancellation of their summer showdown.

The heavyweight bout will still take place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The postponement comes after 'Iron' Mike suffered an ulcer flare on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles.

He became nauseous and dizzy as he received urgent medical attention.

Despite the scare, Paul vs. Tyson will still go ahead amid the widespread condemnation from fans and critics alike.

It will be the boxing legend's first pro bout since June 2005 while the 27-year-old last fought in March when he stopped Ryan Bourland, and a fight against a former UFC star is reportedly in the works ahead of his November clash.

His boxing career has come under fire with some even accusing him of rigging his matches.

And in his latest video on his YouTube channel, 'The Problem Child' and his older brother Logan Paul answered a series of questions while hooked up to a lie detector.

Logan asked his younger brother if his fight against Tyson is rigged.

He asked: "For all the conspiracy theorists there, is this fight rigged?

The YouTuber-turned-boxer replied: "Absolutely not, that's a federal crime."

Paul's victories over Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley were subjected to rigged accusations.

But the 57-year-old is adamant his fight against Paul isn't scripted.

On social media, he wrote: “This fight isn’t scripted as some haters in boxing community want you to believe. This is a sanctioned fight and I’m knocking Jake out."

Paul replied: "I love you Mike. But you are the one getting knocked out. And (expletive) the haters saying it’s scripted."
