🚨 Jake Paul makes huge Mike Tyson fight claim but fans are not convinced

Posted by

Jake Paul comfortably defeated Mike Tyson at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

‘The Problem Child’ managed to coax the former baddest man on the planet back to professional boxing for the first time since his sad performance against Kevin McBride in 2005.

Many people in the sport felt the fight should not have been sanctioned as a professional bout given ‘Iron Mike’s’ health issues and age (58).

In the early hours of Saturday, Paul and Tyson finally collided but after the first two rounds, Paul took over and breezed his way to an easy points decision verdict.

Tyson looked very much like the same fighter that decided to end his career after his defeat to McBride.

At times it looked like Paul could step on the gas and knock Tyson out, but he’s claimed he ‘didn’t wanna hurt someone that didn’t need to be hurt’, suggesting he carried Tyson in the fight.

Fight fans reacted to the clip on X formerly Twitter.

One said: ‘Some will say it was all scripted.’

Another added: ‘nah he was throwing that right hand with bad intentions.’

A third replied: ‘Either he’s telling the truth and he fought a man he knew was too old to fight or he’s lying because he couldn’t knock out a 58 year old man.’

A fourth commented: ‘In other words “I couldn’t find the KO shot Vs someone that can’t even move”‘
