American boxer Mike Tyson is reportedly considering legal action against the global fashion brand Supreme over a design change in a planned collaborative collection. The collection, which also involved designer Martine Rose, was inspired by Tyson's boxing career and included a jacket.

According to Tyson's representative, the original jacket design featured the Israeli flag. However, without Tyson's consent or consultation, the flag was allegedly replaced with the Palestinian flag. Tyson's representative stated that the company altered the design without consulting him, dragging him into a political dispute against his will and constituting a blatant breach of contract.

Tyson intends to take the necessary legal steps to protect his reputation and rights. While the specifics of any potential lawsuit, including claims or damages sought, were not detailed, the dispute has led Supreme to cancel the launch of the joint collection. Consequently, the jacket that sparked the controversy will not be sold as part of this project.
