Jake Paul and Mike Tyson faced off in a press conference promoting their upcoming boxing fight. The event, which took place in New York, saw the two men exchange words and physical contact as they hyped up their controversial match set to take place at Texas's AT&T Stadium on November 15.
Despite being 31 years older than his opponent, former heavyweight champion Tyson was not afraid to get physical and pushed Paul multiple times on stage. In response, Paul playfully mimicked Tyson's moves and made high-pitched noises, seemingly poking fun at the older boxer's attempts to intimidate him.
A short clip of Paul's impression was shared on social media, causing a stir among fans and followers. The fight between the two was originally scheduled for July 20, but was postponed due to Tyson's health issues. During the press conference, Paul took a jab at Tyson for his "menopause break" which delayed the fight.
But Tyson, who is known as the "Baddest Man On The Planet," made it clear that he is ready and willing to fight Paul. When asked why he was going through with the match, Tyson confidently replied, "Because I can. Who else can do it but me? Who else is he going to fight to make this happen?"
Despite being cheered by the crowd, Tyson acknowledged the unusual nature of the event, stating, "We've got a YouTuber fighting the greatest fighter that ever lived." Meanwhile, Paul continued to stir up controversy by shouting expletives at the audience and comparing them to Tyson, saying, "You're just like Mike Tyson, you were good 20 years ago."
As the press conference came to a close, the two men made it clear that they are both confident in their abilities and ready to put on a show for their fans. The fight will be broadcast live on Netflix's YouTube channel on November 15, and Paul is determined to prove his doubters wrong and become the modern-day Muhammad Ali. With a record of 10 wins and 7 knockouts, Paul may just have a chance to make history in the ring.
