Mike Tyson recently opened up on the medical emergency that forced his bout with Jake Paul to be pushed back.

Originally, Paul vs. Tyson was scheduled to go down on July 20. The fight was ultimately pushed to November 15 after the ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’ suffered a medical emergency during a cross-country flight in May.

Recently, Tyson opened up about the incident and revealed that the situation was a lot more serious than initially reported. 

“I went to the bathroom and I threw up blood,” Tyson explained on Countdown: Paul vs. Tyson. “The next thing I know I’m on the floor. I was defecating tar.’’

According to Tyson, he was suffering from a 2.5 inch bleeding ulcer and lost an incredible 26 pounds during the process of removing it. 

“I asked the doctor, ‘Am I going to die?’“ Tyson continued. “And she didn’t say no. She said we have options, though. That’s when I got nervous.”
