Mike Tyson makes heartbreaking admission following Jake Paul fight

Mike Tyson has made a heartbreaking admission following his loss to Jake Paul last month.

As neither could knock each other out during the fight, the winner was chosen by the judges based on points, which Paul went on to win by a landslide.

The Iron Mike only landed 18 shots during the bout, while Paul made a successful 78 blows to the former boxing heavyweight champion

Despite the defeat, Tyson bagged a whopping $20 million from the fight as Netflix revealing over 108 million users tuned in to watch.

Tyson has done a few media interviews following the fight, and speaking FOX Sports Radio YouTube channel recently, the fighter admitted to feeling 'kind of depressed'.

"That fight was such a big ascent-we were so up and high, we were so excited. The fight's over, boom. Wow, I'm kind of depressed a little bit. We got to get back [into] our living situation [daily life], back to living. [we were] training for it 9 months," Tyson said.

The 58-year-old went on to say he can't remember much from the fight and the night itself.

He added: "I don't remember the fight that much, I kind of blanked out a little [and] no I have not watched the fight.

"Coming back from the first round and then the next thing I remember Jake was doing some kind of, I don't know, a bow. And that's the last thing I remember. I thought he was gonna hit me, I thought, 'what the hell is he doing?'

"It was a real fight."

Tyson also questioned why he decided to take part in the fight, with many pointing out his age and previous health worries this year as a reason to stay away.

He continued: “I don’t remember it. But my body was really sore (after the fight). My chest, my stomach was really sore.

“The day after I woke up and said to my wife, ‘Why did I do that?’ I just don’t know what the hell was going on.”

Shortly after the bout, Tyson released a statement that indicated that he was happy that he participated, regardless of the result.

"This is one of those situations when you lost but still won," he said.

“I’m grateful for last night. No regrets to get in ring one last time. I almost died in June. Had 8 blood transfusions. Lost half my blood and 25lbs (11kg) in hospital and had to fight to get healthy to fight so I won.

“To have my children see me stand toe to toe and finish 8 rounds with a talented fighter half my age in front of a packed Dallas Cowboy stadium is an experience that no man has the right to ask for. Thank you.”
