Bleacher Reporter was the first to announce the news, indicating that the “medical scare” that Tyson recently dealt with onboard a flight is the reason behind the fight being postponed.
While recently traveling from Miami to Los Angeles, Tyson was on board and had been dealing with a “medical scare” that was later deemed to be an ulcer flare-up. This flare-up has now reportedly kept Tyson from being able to train fully, and will lead to the boxing match being put on hold.
