Mike Tyson Slaps Jake Paul During Weigh-In, Sparks Heated Exchange
In a dramatic turn of events, boxing legend Mike Tyson slapped Jake Paul during their ceremonial weigh-in on Thursday night. The incident occurred as the two fighters faced off ahead of their highly anticipated bout at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
The tension escalated when Paul, who weighed in at 227.2 pounds, appeared to step on Tyson's foot. Tyson, weighing in at 228.4 pounds, responded with a swift slap to Paul's face. The altercation prompted immediate intervention from both fighters' teams.
Paul, known for his brash persona, quickly retaliated with strong words. "I didn't even feel it. He's angry. He's an angry little elf," Paul said. "Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap, buddy, but tomorrow you're getting knocked the fck out. It's personal now! He must di-e!"*
The slap has only heightened the anticipation for the fight, which will be streamed live on Netflix. Fans are eagerly awaiting the showdown between the 58-year-old former heavyweight champion and the 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer.
