was left speechless after watching 's recent just weeks before the pair are scheduled to fight.

After uploading footage on his social media accounts, many fans were quick to have their say on how Tyson is looking ahead of the bout. Even Paul himself was quick to weigh in. That said, it seemed like the 27-year-old was far from impressed. In a story posted to , 'The Problem Child' shared 'Iron Mike's' video and accompanied the clip with four shocked emojis.

Many fans have noticed a few issues with the sparring video. One user wrote: "I think I know why there are so many jump cuts. You are going to be gassed in 20 seconds." Another commented: "I'm starting to think that dudes in some serious trouble. Hope his insurance is paid up. All that money will buy a nice wheelchair." A third posted: "We see these 10 second clips of furious power and speed …. It’s the 15mins of recovery afterwards we don’t see. Silly fight, with silly caveats in the contract to make it last but as well all know … money ru(i)ns this now." A fourth wrote: "I’ve yet to see 2 min of straight action lol."

That's not the only issues, though. One fan has suggested that Tyson may be carrying a slight knock, commenting: "Hope right knee is holding. Is it an injury?" Tyson can be seen wearing a knee support on his right knee - potentially implying that he may be suffering with a slight issue. As of yet, the 58-year-old is yet to address those claims with the fight just weeks away.

While a few have been left concerned by the video, some fans remain optimistic ahead of the heavyweight dust-up in November. "If anyone can turn back the clock one more time, it’s Mike," one user wrote. Another commented: "Let's go champ. Iron Mike aging like fine wine. Show them what we missed all these years and deliver a knuckle sandwich knockout." A third posted: "Can't wait either mate, I have not watched boxing since the early 90's, going to watch this one for sure." Another wrote: "Jake is f*****."
