I want to fight Joshua, says Mike Tyson
Boxing legend Mike Tyson (57) isn’t done yet. He’s set for a comeback fight against YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in November, but his sights are set on a bigger challenge – a charity exhibition match with Anthony Joshua.
Mike Tyson is in peak condition for his first fight since the 2020 Roy Jones Jr. clash.
Mike Tyson expressed his interest in a charity bout with Joshua to TMZ, saying, “I would love to [fight Joshua].
That would be mind-blowing.”

However, Mike Tyson has to conquer the younger Paul first. Joshua, a former heavyweight champion himself (34), is concerned about Tyson’s health in a competitive fight.
“He’s older now,” Joshua said. “I pray he comes out healthy.”
While the Tyson-Paul fight has divided fans, Joshua surprisingly supports it. “I think it’s really good,” he said.
He believes these exhibition bouts attract new audiences to boxing, ultimately benefiting the sport.
