Mike Tyson suffered a medical scare during a flight from Miami to Los Angeles on Sunday, his representatives have confirmed.
The former heavyweight champion became nauseous and dizzy and flight staff even asked passengers if there was a doctor on board to provide assistance.
Paramedics boarded the plane, which had been delayed by two hours in Miami because of the heat, once it had landed in Los Angeles to give him treatment.
It comes just weeks before the boxing legend, 57, is due to fight Jake Paul in Dallas.
‘Thankfully Mr. Tyson is doing great,’ his representatives told The New York Post.
‘He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare up 30 minutes before landing.
‘He is appreciative to the medical staff that were there to help him.’
It comes after In Touch first revealed that Tyson ‘had some kind of medical emergency on the plane and paramedics boarded’.
It continued: ‘Before the paramedics arrived the flight issued an announcement asking for a doctor — the message even came on everyone’s screens.’
