Although boxing legend Mike Tyson, 58, lost the fight to a 27-year-old blogger, he considers himself a winner because he "almost died" in June and had to fight to recover.
Writes UNN with a link to the page of the veteran boxer on the X platform.
Mike Tyson explained his health problems that initially delayed his fight with Jake Paul.
"I almost died in June. I had 8 blood transfusions. I lost half of my blood and 25 pounds (over 11 kg) in the hospital and I had to fight to get better so I could fight, so I won.
