Mike Tyson had to be attended to by paramedics on a cross-country flight after suffering a 'medical emergency' on Sunday evening.
The 57-year-old was on a plane from Miami to Los Angeles when he required medical attention.
According to In Touch Weekly, a message was issued asking whether there was a doctor on board the flight.
Tyson is said to have suffered an ulcer flare up 30 minutes before the plan was scheduled to land.

“Thankfully Mr. Tyson is doing great,” Tyson’s representatives told the New York Post.
“He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare up 30 minutes before landing.
"He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him.”
An eyewitness told In Touch Weekly: "Mike had some kind of medical emergency on the plane and paramedics boarded.
"Before the paramedics arrived the flight issued an announcement asking for a doctor — the message even came on everyone’s screens.
"There was a lot of buzz when he left the Admirals Club and got to the gate.
"A lot of fans recognised him, and a few people got pictures.
"He was very accommodating and then he was escorted away from the gate because the flight was delayed because the gate person said that the plane was too hot because it had been sitting all day and had to cool down."

The incident comes just weeks before Tyson is set to step into the ring with YouTuber Jake Paul.
The bout has caused controversy due to the 30-year age gap between Tyson and Paul.
Speaking last week, Paul said he won't be holding back against Tyson when they eventually face off.
