Mike Tyson is currently preparing for his fight against Jake Paul, which will take place on November 15 at the AT&T Stadium in Texas. Initially scheduled for July, it had to be postponed due to Tyson's health issues. In one of the podcasts, Mike revealed he has trouble distinguishing Tommy from his famous brother, Tyson Fury.

Recently, the showbiz world was rocked by the news of the breakup of a popular reality TV pair - Tommy Fury and Molly Mae Hague. When Mike Tyson, a boxing legend, appeared on Logan Paul's podcast, he couldn't help but share his opinion on the topic in a rather unexpected manner.

Especially since Tyson will be facing Paul's brother, Jake, in the ring this November. As a result, his conversation gained additional significance.

Tyson, also known as Iron Mike, clearly confused, mistook "Molly" for the street slang for the drug "MDMA". His response, quoted by the newspaper "The Sun," shocked many: "Who the hell is Molly? I think of getting high. I am in the drug stage of my life."

His directness amused Paul. But that's not all. Tyson also showed that he has trouble distinguishing Tommy from his famous brother, Tyson Fury, adding some of his reflections on the heavyweight champion's loneliness.

The correct facts were clarified only after a while. Paul emphasized that Tommy and Molly met on "Love Island," were together for five years, and have a child. Tyson, astonished, reacted with playful disbelief: "Seriously? Stop joking with me, man."
