Like father, not like son.
Mike Tyson spent years being the most polarizing figure in boxing. Amir Tyson, Mike’s eldest son, has expressed interest in fighting Logan Paul and following in his father’s footsteps. Nevertheless, Mike said he doesn’t want his son entering the ring and would rather him get a real job.
“The oldest one, he’s 24, he wants to do this so bad … he wants to fight Logan Paul and those guys,” Tyson said on the “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson” podcast. “He wants to do that, but I said, ‘Just get a job. Get your real estate license. Just chill out, man. Why can’t you take advantage of your lightweight wealthiness? Just chill. You don’t want none of that heat, man, I’m telling you.’

He may have denied any rumors of fighting Paul, but he did fight Roy Jones Jr. back in November in an exhibition fight, which led to an unofficial draw. His next challenger will be Lennox Lewis with the fight scheduled for September this year.
