Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson is facing a $1.5 million lawsuit filed by a Cyprus-based company, according to a recent court filing.

Medier, a promoter for betting company Rabona, has filed a lawsuit in London’s High Court against Tyson and his company Tyrannic. The suit alleges that Tyson wrongfully terminated a promotional contract signed in January in favor of a fight with social media influencer Jake Paul.
