Mike Tyson and Jake Paul do not officially get in the boxing ring for hours, but Iron Mike has already landed the first shot.

Tyson turned his face off with Jake Paul violent when he slapped the YouTuber hours before they take to the ring for their bout.

Was this staged? We’ll never know, but it surely is entertaining.

Tyson slapped Paul in his face as the YouTuber recoiled before insisting he barely felt the blow. “I didn’t even feel it, he’s angry. He’s an angry little elf, and he’s getting knocked the f— out. I’m f—ing knocking him out. He hits like a b—-. It’s personal now; he must die.”

The 58-year-old is making his return to the ring almost 20 years since his last professional fight.

 

Paul made his professional boxing debut in 2020, knocking out fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib. He has since amassed a 10-1 record, with notable victories over UFC stars Ben Askren, Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, Nate Diaz, and Mike Perry. He also knocked out former NBA star Nate Robinson.

Mike Tyson Returning To The Ring For The First Time In Four Years

One of the more improbable matchups in boxing history is almost here as Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul goes down on Friday.

Tyson has not fought professionally since 2005 but stepped in the ring for an exhibition fight against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020.

Tyson was known for his brutal knockouts, and his first 19 fights ended early. At 58, we have no clue what he has left in the tank.
