In a recent interview, former world heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson declared that if he wins his upcoming bout against YouTube star and professional boxer Jake Paul, he will donate half of his prize money to the poor in the United States.

 

Tyson, known for his powerful punches and aggressive fighting style, stated that his aim is not just to win in the ring but also to contribute to the fight against poverty. “I’ve fought many battles in my life, but the fight against poverty is one of the most significant,” Tyson remarked. “This donation is part of my effort to give back to the community, and I hope it will make a real difference.”

Jake Paul, who transitioned from a YouTube celebrity to a successful career in professional boxing, expressed his respect for his opponent. “Mike is a legend, and I am honored to have the opportunity to face him,” Paul said. “His goal to donate to the poor just shows that he’s not only a great fighter but also a great person.”

The match between Tyson and Paul is expected to take place in Las Vegas later this year and will be broadcast live on major streaming platforms. With Tyson’s latest declaration, the event is set to capture the attention of not just boxing fans but also those interested in social issues.

Should Tyson emerge victorious, this substantial contribution will enhance his reputation not only in the sports world but also in the community, aiding in the collective efforts to combat poverty and inequality in the US.
