SKOR.id – Legenda tinju Mike Tyson membantah uang jadi motivasinya mau bertarung secara profesional dengan Jake Paul di atas ring pada 15 November 2024, meskipun ia akan mengantongi jumlah besar.

Iron Mike yang sekarang berusia 58 tahun terakhir kali bertinju pada 2020 dalam laga ekhsibisi melawan Roy Jones Jr yang berakhir draw

Tetapi pekan ini menandai duel profesional pertamanya sejak 2005, saat kalah dari Kevin McBride. Banyak pihak meyakini uang adalah alasan Tyson mau meladeni Paul, YouTuber yang beralih menjadi petinju.

Fans tinju merasa Iron Mike tidak perlu melakoni laga versus Jake Paul untuk menjaga legasinya. Wajar mereka merasa uang ada di balik alasan comeback mantan juara dunia kelas berat tak terbantahkan itu.

Kabarnya, Tyson menandatangani kontrak  yang diperkirakan bernilai 20-40 juta dolar AS (setara Rp315,2-630,5 miliar) dengan Netflix dan Most Valuable Promotions untuk duel melawan Paul.  

Mike Tyson telah berulang kali membantah anggapan tersebut. Ia kembali menepisnya jelang pertarungan yang bakal digelar di AT&T Stadium, Texas, Amerika Serikat, Jumat (15/11/2024) malam waktu setempat.

“Saya juga membutuhkan uang seperti orang lain. Tetapi, percaya atau tidak, uang ini tak akan mengubah gaya hidup saya,” ujar Tyson kepada jurnalis olahraga Stephen A. Smith seperti dikutip dari Marca.

“Saya akan tetap mampu melakukan hal-hal yang biasanya saya lakukan walaupun saya, katakanlah, tidak memiliki duel ini,” petinju dengan rekor 50 kemenangan dari 58 pertarungan itu menambahkan.

Mike Tyson, yang telah melawan nama-nama besar di kelas berat seperti Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis dan Buster Douglas, lalu menjelaskan mengapa dirinya merasa perlu untuk naik ring mengingat risiko besar bagi pria yang hampir berusia 60 tahun.   

“Faktanya, inilah yang ingin saya lakukan. Saya ingin keluar dari zona nyaman dan saya ingin menguji diri sendiri. Apa pun yang saya takutkan, akan saya hadapi. Itulah mentalitas saya,” kata Tyson. 

Duel Mike Tyson dengan Jake Paul nanti berlangsung delapan ronde dengan durasi dua menit setiap ronde. Keduanya akan menggunakan sarung tinju ukuran 14 ons demi memastikan Iron Mike tetap aman dari cedera internal ataupun trauma otak.

Pasalnya, kendati Tyson merupakan petinju hebat, harus diingat ia sudah tak muda lagi. Sedangkan Paul, lawannya, sedang di periode keemasan dengan 10 kemenangan dari 11 duel dan berusia 31 tahun lebih muda dari Si Leher Beton.
