Mike Tyson has set his sights on taking on some of the biggest names in the heavyweight boxing division as part of a comeback should his fight against Jake Paul go as well as he hopes.

Iron Mike will be back in the boxing ring for the first time in nearly 20 years in a few days from now when he takes on Youtuber Paul at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington in Texas, home of the Dallas Cowboys, on November 15.

Tyson last fought professionally in 2005 in the most recent of his 58 fights. Of these, he has won 50 and 44 have come by knockout, while five were by decision and another came through his opponent being disqualified.

Tyson is a former undisputed heavyweight champion who has experienced defeat only six times in his career, five of which were by knockout and the other being through disqualification, while a further two fights were no contests.

The bout pits 58-year-old Tyson against 27-year-old Paul, an age gap of more than 30 years between the two men.

Paul has 10 victories to his name, seven of which were by knockout and three were on decision, with his sole defeat coming against Tommy Fury in February 2023 in Saudi Arabia on decision.

With the fight taking place in Texas, which is being streamed live on Netflix, the state's Department of Licensing and Regulations has sanctioned the fight and means it will count towards both men's professional boxing records.

Tyson has now looked ahead to the future beyond the fight against Paul and confirmed he will seek to continue his comeback to the ring afterwards should the bout against Paul go well.

When it was put to him he could fight the victor of the upcoming rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, Tyson confirmed nothing was off the table.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, Tyson said: "Intriguing. Nothing will be excluded after I knock out Jake Paul.

"Listen. I’m taking this one fight, one person at a time.

"But if this one goes as well as I expect, then a full comeback is not off the table.

"As I said, anything and everything would be included."

Usyk and Fury are due to lock horns again on December 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Ukrainian fighter Usyk won the first bout between the duo earlier this year following a split decision after a close battle in which two judges scored 115-112 and 114-113 in Usyk's favour, while another scored 114-113 to Fury.

Usyk is undefeated in 22 fights while Fury's loss to the Ukrainian is the sole defeat of his professional career.
