Jake Paul's recent win over Mike Tyson was nothing short of dominant. The 27-year-old boxer cruised to a comfortable points victory against the former heavyweight champion in Arlington, Texas. However, amidst the celebration of his victory, there were some speculations that the fight may have been rigged. These claims were quickly shut down by Paul's promotional company, who were outraged by the accusations.
According to some, Paul's victory was too one-sided, considering he was fighting a man 31 years older than him with well-documented health issues. Former world champion Carl Froch even suggested that there may have been something in the contract to ensure that neither fighter took too much damage. But Paul's promotional company, MVP Promotions, was quick to clarify that there were no restrictions imposed on either fighter and that both men were free to use their full arsenal in the fight.
MVP Promotions further emphasized that rigging a professional boxing match is a federal crime in the United States and that the fight was sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations. They emphasized that both fighters entered the ring with the goal of winning the fight and that any suggestion of foul play is not only insulting but also goes against the rules set by TDLR.
Despite the fact that Paul was relatively untroubled fighting against a 58-year-old opponent, MVP Promotions stressed that trash talk and speculation are common in sports and that athletes and promoters need to tolerate nonsensical commentary and opinions. They also highlighted that the accusations of the fight being rigged are not only naive but also disrespectful to the hard work and dedication put in by both fighters.
Nakisa Bidarian, co-founder of MVP Promotions, also chimed in, stating that this is not the first time Paul has faced such unfounded skepticism in his career. He further added that these claims are just backhanded compliments to Paul's abilities and that he has continuously proven himself and set historic records in the sport. The event, which broke attendance and viewership milestones, is a testament to Paul's ability to deliver on the biggest stage.
In the end, MVP Promotions reaffirmed their support for Paul and their partnership with the world's biggest streamer, who made their first foray into live professional sports with Paul's fight against Tyson. They made it clear that they would never consider such a perverse violation of the rules of competition and that they embrace the doubt, as it only fuels Paul to work harder and achieve even greater success.
