Paul, who has previously voiced support for former US President Donald Trump, reiterated his backing during the event, highlighting concerns like inflation and wages.
He extended an invitation to Trump to attend the fight at AT&T Stadium in Texas, recalling Trump’s history as a promoter for Tyson.
The match, rescheduled for 15 November, was originally set for July but was postponed due to Tyson’s health issues. Now 58, Tyson has confirmed he is ready for the fight, which will take place under professional conditions in the 80,000-capacity stadium.
