There is a 29-year age gap between the pair and Tyson has not fought since November 2020, but he did not rule out a bout with the YouTuber.

Tyson fought Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition match the last time he put on the gloves, and this match-up could follow that set-up.

And when asked on Yahoo if he would be able to take on Paul, Tyson replied: “Are you talking to me about taking him (Paul) on?” before bursting out laughing.

He added: “Maybe, I’m an old man you know I don’t know what I can do now.

“Anything is possible. By doing this…the charities win both ways.”

Paul fought a lot more recently than Tyson, holding his own in an eight-round exhibition bout with Floyd Mayweather in June.

And the internet star was involved in a brawl this week – slapping a heckler after being confronted outside an LA nightclub.

The person approached Paul and asked him: “Are you a p***y or what?”

Tyson also has a history of getting involved in confrontations with members of the public, and recently admitted he would punch fans in the face when they asked him for autographs.
