In a live Netflix fight, Mike Tyson loses against Jake Paul
Paul emerged victorious from the eagerly anticipated bout between the YouTuber and the former world heavyweight champion.
The bout between boxing icon Mike Tyson and former YouTube sensation Jake Paul was postponed for four months.
After eight rounds on Friday night, Paul, 27, defeated the former world heavyweight champion by majority decision. He was younger than the 58-year-old, which worked to his advantage.
According to Sports Illustrated, Netflix had connection problems during the fight, but they appeared to be resolved by the second round, when Paul landed a number of powerful blows on Tyson that affected his performance.
For the remainder of the match, he maintained his lead and prevailed. He is currently 11-1.
Before the game, both athletes chatted a lot.
Earlier in the week, Tyson told a select group of ESPN reporters, “I’m bringing the devil himself [to the ring].”
Tyson, who referred to Paul as a “friend,” stated, “There are no feelings attached.” “If my own mother must enter the arena with me, she should exercise extreme caution. It’s over when it’s over. However, my goal is to harm him during the process. He is in difficulties, therefore I hope he has the same goals.
Yes, it’s adorable. I have no fear of men. At the last press conference before the fight, Paul stated, “I want him to be that old savage Mike.” He claims that he will murder me. I’m prepared. That murderer is what I want.
