Mike Tyson admits he isn't feeling 100% as he prepares for his Nov. 15 boxing match against Jake Paul.
The former heavyweight champion recently told USA Today's Josh Peter that he's been training three to four times per day, which has made walking a struggle for him.
"It's hard to walk right now," Tyson said. "But two months from now, I'm going to be perfect."
The 58-year-old was originally set to square off against the 27-year-old Paul on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, but the fight was rescheduled after Tyson suffered a medical scare on a flight.
Paul said earlier in September that Tyson is "super healthy behind the scenes" and that there's no backup plan if he withdraws from the fight.
