Paul has been waiting for his fight against Tyson for quite some time now. The bout was scheduled for 20 July but had to be postponed because of Tyson's health. Currently, the encounter is set for 15 November, and as of now, there are no visible complications regarding its materialization.

Despite 'Iron Mike' being his upcoming rival, Paul had no hesitation in providing him with the No.1 spot, leaving aside the four other names provided. 'The Problem Child' also didn't showcase much doubt about placing Muhammad Ali at No. 2 after giving the No. 3 spot to Tyson Fury. Here's how he ranked the others:

"Evander Holyfield - 4. George Foreman - 5."

Mike Tyson's past comments don't align with Jake Paul's ranking

Jake Paul and several other boxing pundits may consider 'Iron Mike' the greatest heavyweight of all time, but 'Kid Dynamite' has always kept Muhammad Ali above himself in his books. In 1989, Tyson shared the stage of the Arsenio Hall Show with 'The Great'. It was during that episode when he claimed that Ali was better than him, also labeling him "the greatest of all time".

"I know I'm great, but can I tell you something? In this situation, every head must bow, every tongue must confess, [pointing to Ali] this is the greatest of all time."
