Mike Tyson sends message to Tyson Fury with boxing star open to another retirement U-turn

Tyson has made it clear that his ambitions extend beyond the Paul fight, refusing to rule out future matchups against top-tier opponents.

The highly anticipated clash will take place at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas, with an expected crowd of 80,000 spectators.

The bout was originally scheduled for July but had to be postponed after Tyson experienced an ulcer flare-up.

This will mark Tyson's first appearance in a professional boxing match since his defeat to Kevin McBride in 2005, though he did participate in an exhibition match with Roy Jones Jr four years ago.

Speaking to Mail Online, Tyson declared: "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," the former heavyweight champion added.

When asked about potentially facing fighters like Fury, Usyk, and Dubois, Tyson remained open to all possibilities, stating: "As I said, anything and everything would be included."

This isn't the first time Tyson and Fury have discussed a potential showdown, with previous negotiations falling through over financial terms.

Speaking to IFL TV, Fury revealed: "Mike was talking about $500 million figures [half a billion], but what came back to us on paper was a joke."

The Gypsy King explained he had received a $10m offer from ESPN for an exhibition match, but declined due to concerns over public perception.

"If he had won, then people would have said I was rubbish because a 53-year-old beat me," Fury said.

"If I had beaten him, then I would have been a bully."

The boxing community has expressed strong opposition to Tyson's ambitious comeback plans, particularly regarding his upcoming fight with Jake Paul.
