Former world champion Carl Froch isnât convinced by the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul clash.
Despite a huge 30-year age gap the pair will battle it out on November 15 live on Netflix.
Last week the heavyweights met at the press conference to promote their showdown but Froch has pinpointed moments in the event that show it is all scripted.

âMike Tyson I think he is just playing his role,â he said on his YouTube channel.
âIn my opinion, Mike Tyson has probably got the script. Because when I saw that press conference there was a half-hearted shove. Jake Paul stood there stern-looking and didnât even say anything so to me it all just look contrived and fake.

âItâs not even pantomime, it is worse than pantomime because for me as an ex-pro boxer it is just not enjoyable to watch. We want to see Jake Paul get flattened, that is the appeal. Can Mike Tyson render Jake Paul unconscious, but unfortunately in the real world that will not happen. I just think it is a shame that Tyson is getting in the ring with this idiot âFake Paulâ. It is just clown world. It shouldnât be happening, I donât like it but I hope Tyson can go in there and not get hurt and make a few quid.â
