Mike
Tyson
suffered
a
health
scare
while
in
midair
and
is
now
recovering
despite
having
a
major
boxing
event
coming
in
the
next
few
weeks.
The
former
heavyweight
world
champion
suffered
an
ulcer
flare-up
and
appears
to
be
expected
to
go
forward
with
his
bout
with
social
media
star
Jake
Paul.
As
seen
on
Deadline,
Mike
Tyson,
57,
was
on
an
American
Airlines
flight
from
Miami
to
Los
Angeles
when
the
flare-up
occurred.
As
the
outlet
reports,
flight
attendants
rushed
to
the
boxing
legend’s
aid
and
requested
the
assistance
of
a
doctor
on
board.
More
from
Deadline:
“He
became
nauseous
and
dizzy
due
to
an
ulcer
flare
up
30
minutes
before
landing,
a
rep
for
Tyron
said
in
a
statement
to
media
outlets.
“He
is
appreciative
to
the
medical
staff
that
were
there
to
help
him”
and
is
now
feeling
“great”,
the
rep
added.
Flight
attendants
reached
out
to
passengers
to
see
if
a
doctor
was
on
board
when
Tyson
revealed
he
was
in
intense
pain.
Paramedics
reportedly
boarded
the
plane
when
it
landed
to
assist
Tyson.
Tyson
is
set
to
take
on
Paul,
27,
in
Arlington,
Texas
at
the
Dallas
Cowboys’
AT&T
Stadium
on
July
20.
Paul
has
said
in
interviews
that
while
he
respects
Tyson,
he
isn’t
going
to
pull
any
punches.
Tyson
promises
that
the
fight
isn’t
a
money
grab
and
that
he
intends
to
bring
the
fight
to
Paul.
