Boxing legend Mike Tyson suffered a medical emergency while traveling from Miami to Los Angeles on a cross-country flight on Sunday. The incident occurred last night as Tyson was boarding the plane. Reports indicate that Tyson became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing. Paramedics were called, and an announcement was made asking for a doctor. The flight took off two hours late, and it is unclear if Tyson was on it. Tyson's representatives have confirmed that he is now doing great and feeling much better. This incident comes just weeks before his scheduled fight against Jake Paul on July 20th.
