Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, 57, experienced a health scare midflight from Miami to Los Angeles due to an ulcer flare-up but is now reported to be 'doing great.'
The flight delay was caused by an air conditioning issue on the aircraft, not Tyson's medical attention.
Tyson is set to face social media star Jake Paul in a highly anticipated boxing match at AT&T Stadium in Texas on July 20, marking his return to the ring after nearly two decades.
The fight will feature eight two-minute rounds with 14-ounce gloves and will be streamed live on Netflix.
Despite initial confusion, Tyson clarified that the delay was not due to his health scare.
Fans eagerly await updates on Tyson's recovery and the upcoming fight.
