Mike Tyson is breaking his silence following his headline-making fight last night with Jake Paul.
The Netflix-streamed fight brought in over 60 million live views as the living legend emerged from retirement at age 58 to fight the 27-year-old former YouTuber.
The fight which took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas also peaked at 65 million concurrent streams.
While Paul was declared the winner after the eight-round match, Tyson says he was the real victor for bigger reasons.
The legend took to his social media accounts on Saturday to reveal his reasons for taking the fight which he says was his “one last time,” and revealed some shocking news regarding his near-death experience earlier this year.
“This is one of those situations when you lost but still won. I’m grateful for last night. No regrets to get in ring one last time. I almost died in June. Had 8 blood transfusions. Lost half my blood and 25lbs in hospital and had to fight to get healthy to fight so I won. To have my children see me stand toe to toe and finish 8 rounds with a talented fighter half my age in front of a packed Dallas Cowboy stadium is an experience that no man has the right to ask for. Thank you 🙏 #PaulTyson”
