British boxer Aloys Junior feels Mike Tyson's fight with Jake Paul 'may get stopped' for health reasons.

Controversy currently surrounds the upcoming bout, with the two men due to lock horns on November 15.

Tyson suffered an ulcer flare up earlier this year, forcing the pair to reschedule their fight - having originally intended to do battle on July 20.

There are concerns that he could suffer serious injury when he faces Paul, who is 31 years younger than his rival.

Tyson, for his part, insists he's 'feeling great' as he prepares to return to boxing after a four-year hiatus.

Yet Junior, speaking to talkSPORT, believes the bout 'may get stopped' to avoid any issues.

"I think he may get stopped to be honest with you," he said.

"He is just too old, your body has declined too much at that age.

It is not good for his boxing legacy, especially if he gets stopped like that by Jake Paul.

"I wouldn't want to see that at all but who knows, he was one of my idols.

"If the fight ever happens we don't know, I just wouldn't like to see that."

Tyson and Paul are set to attend a press conference on August 18 where they'll provide an update on their upcoming showdown.

Paul will go into the fight on a high after recently beating Mike Perry via knockout.

And though there are concerns over Tyson's health as the fight approaches, the 58-year-old doesn't currently intend on withdrawing.

It will be his first fight since his clash with Roy Jones Jr back in 2020, with that exhibition ending in a draw.

The common consensus seems to be that Paul's power and youthful energy will swing the pendulum his way later in the year.

However, with Tyson one of the greatest heavyweights of all time, the 58-year-old will fancy his chances of reigning supreme.

Former boxing star Butterbean, meanwhile, has claimed the fight will never take place - while also labelling it a 'scam'.

"Him and Tyson are never gonna fight," he said during a Q&A.

"That has been a scam from the very beginning just to boost Jake's name - and it has!

"This guy, everybody's talking about him. But he's never gonna fight Tyson.

"They were never planning on fighting each other, because a promoter would never let him fight anyone else in between a fight.

"Never - not that big of a fight. So, it's been a scam from the beginning."
