Mike Tyson responds to Jake Paul's controversial health claims with a cryptic social media post, adding intrigue to the ongoing debate about his well-being.

It was then that Paul made a shocking claim: that the toad venom helped Tyson’s diagnosis with Parkinson’s disease and helped him get back in fighting shape. “Toad is what cured Tyson’s Parkinson’s so that he could come back and fight,” he said to a shocked Ross. “You smoke it. You smoke the frog venom. Toads from the Sonoran Desert in Mexico.”

The Tyson-Paul fight had to be re-scheduled from July 20 to Nov. 15 after Tyson had a medical emergency on a plane during the lead-up to the fight, and he was diagnosed with stomach ulcers. The boxing legend said after the fight that he nearly died in July and he had to get multiple blood transfusions.
