Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has revealed he feels “kind of depressed” following his high-profile boxing match against Jake Paul last month.

The fight, which took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, marked Tyson’s first professional bout in 19 years.

Paul dominated the bout, landing 78 punches compared to Tyson’s mere 18 throughout the contest.

“I was in the bathroom throwing up blood. I asked the doctor, ‘Am I going to die?’ He said, ‘We have options,'” Tyson told New York Magazine.
