Logan Paul has come under fire for his disrespectful behavior towards Mike Tyson. In the aftermath of his brother Jake's victory over the former heavyweight champion, Logan made a vile threat and mocked him. This has caused quite a stir in the boxing community.
Despite his clear defeat, Tyson is not ready to hang up his gloves just yet. The fight, held at the AT&T Stadium and streamed on Netflix, was scored in favor of Jake with a unanimous decision. This was Tyson's first fight in almost two decades, but in an interview with Netflix after the bout, he hinted that this may not be his last appearance in the ring.
When asked if he was retiring, Tyson responded with uncertainty, saying it all depends on the situation. He then added, "I don't think so." When pressed about a potential opponent, Tyson pointed out Logan Paul, who was standing in the ring at the time.
As the elder Paul brother was being interviewed by Netflix's Ariel Helwani, he made a savage comment towards Tyson, stating, "Motherf*****, I'd kill you Mike." While Tyson brushed off the comment, Logan received widespread backlash for his disrespectful behavior towards the boxing legend.
Former British fighter Amir Khan expressed his disappointment in Logan's remarks, stating that it is disrespectful to speak to a champion like that. He also believes that the rise of social media influencers in the boxing world is making a mockery of the sport.
Khan went on to say that it was a sad day for boxing, as Tyson did not need to take this fight, especially against someone like Logan who has only had four fights in his career. He believes that Tyson's legacy should not be tarnished by a loss to a YouTuber.
The former champion also expressed concern for Tyson's well-being, as he is not as young and strong as his opponents. He believes that at his age, he should not be taking hits like that. Khan also questions why Tyson would even need to take these fights, implying that it may be for financial reasons.
In the end, it was a disappointing sight to see one of the greatest boxers of all time in the ring against someone who is at the peak of their career. Khan believes that it was like a sparring session, but with Tyson still getting hit, it was a dangerous situation for him to be in.
