Dana White Refuses To Talk About Mike Tyson Bailing On Jake Paul Fight – ‘I Know A Lot About It’

The UFC head honcho was speechless about the cancelation of Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul.

On Friday (May 31, 2024), Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) announced on social media that the upcoming “Tyson vs. Paul” Netflix special has been postponed because of “Iron Mike’s” recent ulcer flare-up (details here).

Logan Paul offered to step in and fight his little bro, and he accepted.

During the UFC 302 post-fight press conference (watch here), UFC CEO Dana White reacted to his friend Tyson’s removal from the fight and was left pretty speechless.

“100% [it shouldn’t be rescheduled]. Yeah, obviously, I know a lot about it, but I’m not going to talk about it publicly,” White told reporters. “Yeah, you know. Yeah. I, for the first time probably ever in my life I have no comment on something. That’s Mike’s world, and you know, he gets pissed at me every time I talk about that stuff. Good for him, and they’ll figure it out.”

White and Tyson are close friends and like White mentioned he has been critical of Tyson boxing at his current age. He didn’t want Tyson to fight Roy Jones Jr. in 2020 but was elated when he won.

Hopefully, White can convince Tyson to give up on the “once-in-a-lifetime” matchup with Paul.
