While some boxing enthusiasts fear that Paul's youth, athleticism, and recent activity may overwhelm Tyson, the 58-year-old is eager to put on a spectacle at the AT&amp;T Stadium in Arlington, confident in his own abilities to secure victory.Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn famously labeled the match a "freak show" that "not one boxing person" wants to witness, yet Tyson seems to relish the idea of a late-career revival. At a press conference in May, he said: "Hey, this has been pretty fun. Maybe we'll do it again, yeah."He was quick to dismiss any specific opponents at that time, adding: "Can I take care of Jake first, please? " However, "Iron Mike" has previously mentioned that there are some historic bouts he might want to revisit, as well as several current stars he might wish to challenge.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=0kxW6l_0wFhKTPu00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0kxW6l_0wFhKTPu00" width="1200" height="800" ><figcaption>Jake Paul is more than 30 years younger than Tyson (Image: Getty Images)</figcaption></figure>In a 2020 talk with Fox Sports, Tyson admitted he was open to the idea of a trilogy bout with Evander Holyfield: "Absolutely. Holyfield, Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder."But when probed about competing for a heavyweight world title again, Tyson clarified emphatically: "Hell no, I'm talking about exhibitions man. Helping people and stuff, that's bigger than a title. The title's nothing man, it's not even real gold - it's tin and metal."Tyson endured defeat by Holyfield in an iconic WBA title match in November 1996, succumbing to a 11th-round TKO. Their heated rematch instigated more controversy; Tyson found himself disqualified for biting off a piece of Holyfields ear in round three.Don't miss...

Roy Jones Jr. has also hinted at a possible rematch following their 2020 exhibition dubbed "Lockdown Knockdown".The two combatants faced off in a fiercely contested eight-round match at the Staples Centre in November 2020, ending with the WBC declaring it a draw after they battled to the final bell. Although Tyson seemed satisfied with the result, Jones Jr conveyed his sentiments to BT Sports Box Office: "I don't do draws man, but I understand why they say certain things are buckets lists, because when he hits you, if it's his head, his punches, his body shots, it don't matter."Everything hurts. For me, I thought I did enough boxing on the outside, but I'm cool with the draw. We might have to do it again."Despite fan hopes, a repeat match-up between these legendary fighters has not yet taken place. As for a potential rematch between Tyson and Paul following their next month's spectacle, Tyson could be left hanging.That's due to the latter stating last week his intention to step back from the sport shortly after their imminent clash. The 27-year-old revealed to streamer Adin Ross: "I feel like I'm gonna take a little break. I'm gonna pull an Adin Ross and just disappear, man. I'm just gonna go off-grid."I'm gonna keep fighting for sure. But I think my plan is to just get through November 15, have the best performance possible, knock Mike Tyson out and then just see how I'm feeling based off of that."</div></body>
