Jake Paul was asked if his fight against Mike Tyson is rigged while hooked up to a lie detector.

Paul vs. Tyson has been rescheduled for November 15 following the cancellation of their summer showdown.

The heavyweight bout will still take place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The postponement comes after ‘Iron’ Mike suffered an ulcer flare on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles.

He became nauseous and dizzy as he received urgent medical attention.

Despite the scare, Paul vs. Tyson will still go ahead amid the widespread condemnation from fans and critics alike.

It will be the boxing legend’s first pro bout since June 2005 while the 27-year-old last fought in March when he stopped Ryan Bourland, and a fight against a former UFC star is reportedly in the works ahead of his November clash.

His boxing career has come under fire with some even accusing him of rigging his matches.

And in his latest video on his YouTube channel, ‘The Problem Child’ and his older brother Logan Paul answered a series of questions while hooked up to a lie detector.

Logan asked his younger brother if his fight against Tyson is rigged.

He asked: “For all the conspiracy theorists there, is this fight rigged?

The YouTuber-turned-boxer replied: “Absolutely not, that’s a federal crime.”

Paul’s victories over Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley were subjected to rigged accusations.

But the 57-year-old is adamant his fight against Paul isn’t scripted.

On social media, he wrote: “This fight isn’t scripted as some haters in boxing community want you to believe. This is a sanctioned fight and I’m knocking Jake out.”

Paul replied: “I love you Mike. But you are the one getting knocked out. And (expletive) the haters saying it’s scripted.”

Fresh fears have emerged that Mike Tyson may be forced to pull out of his re-arranged fight with Jake Paul.

The bout between YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul and former heavyweight champion Tyson will take place on November 15 in Texas, with the original date having been postponed.

The fight had initially been scheduled to take place on July 20 but Tyson, who turns 58 later this month, had to pull out due to medical advice after a recent ulcer flare-up.

“Although we had to postpone the fight, I will resume training shortly. I am thankful to the medical staff that treated me,” said Tyson last week. “While we have a new date, the result will be the same no matter when we fight. Jake Paul is getting knocked out.”

The Tyson-Paul contest has been sanctioned as a professional fight, but will only be eight, two-minute rounds while 14oz gloves must be worn, rather than 10oz.

Though the new fight date has been announced, head of communications for the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, Tela Mange said several tests needed to be conducted on both fighters before the event could go ahead.

As per Boxing News, Mange said: “They [Most Valuable Promotions, Paul’s team] have requested November 15, and we have approved that date.

“At this point, the fight remains an eight-round contest over two-minute rounds with 14-ounce gloves.

“As I think I’ve said before, the Department will stay informed about the health of the combatants and will obtain more information if needed to protect their health and safety.

“In addition to pre-licensing medical screening, TDLR’s ringside physicians also conduct pre-fight physicals before the event.

“TDLR rules state that licensure does not automatically authorise an individual to participate in an event if their health or safety could be compromised.”

An unexpected replacement has stepped forward to take Mike Tyson’s place in his fight against Jake Paul.

Mike Tyson, 57, and Jake Paul, 27, were set to meet on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, with the historic bout to be broadcast on Netflix.

However, the fight has now been postponed due to medical advice given to legendary boxer Tyson.

Last week the 57-year-old was taken ill while on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles and received medical attention.

It transpired that Tyson suffered an ulcer flare-up, which will prevent him from training properly over the next few weeks.

A statement released on Friday by Paul’s promotional company MVP announced the postponement of the fight until Tyson can return to full training.

The statement read: “Both Mike and Jake are in agreement that it is only fair to ensure that both athletes have equal training time to prepare for this important match and are able to compete at the highest level.

“The health and well-being of athletes is our top priority, and we fully support Mike in taking the necessary time to allow him to perform at the level he expects of himself.”

At present it is unclear when the eagerly anticipated fight will take place, but it seems unlikely to be cancelled outright due to the broadcast and commercial deals already in place.

However, in the even that organisers want the July 20 fight to go ahead, then Paul’s brother Logan Paul has offered to take Tyson’s place in the ring.

Reacting to the news of the postponement on Friday, Logan tweeted “So Mike Tyson’s out? I’ll step in and we can settle this once and for all.”

The relationship between the two brothers – both YouTubers-turned combat sport athletes – has become strained in recent months.

Last year, Jake admitted that his relationship with his older brother was ‘at breaking point’ after falling out over a number of issues.
