Paul vs. Tyson was supposed to take place earlier this year until the boxing legend, 58, suffered an ulcer flare.
Speaking in a documentary promoting the heavyweight bout - via the Independent, he revealed his reaction to the fight postponement, saying: "When I received the news that he was out and not able to fight, I was just numb.
"I was just like, 'f**k...' I'm the type of person who likes a schedule and likes to know what I’m doing. This just threw a wrench in all of that. There was nothing I could do, it was out of my control.
