Summary

Jake Paul defeated 58-year-old Mike Tyson in an eight-round boxing match, with unanimous scores of 79-73 and 80-72.

The bout, widely criticized as a “stunted show,” highlighted Tyson’s physical decline, including issues with sciatica, a stomach ulcer, and knee problems.

Tyson, once a feared heavyweight champion, struggled to compete, while Paul’s performance lacked effort and authenticity.

Fans, initially supportive of Tyson, grew disenchanted, booing by the final rounds.

Tyson dismissed the fight’s significance beforehand, rejecting the concept of legacy as meaningless. The event was seen as a cynical, contrived spectacle.

    I actually saw this fight. I knew they’d rig it for Jake Paul just for the headline… but I was hoping they’d be less obvious about it.

    Mike Tyson basically just stood there doing nothing while Jake Paul tried to hug him, and while doing this “hug it out” routine wore himself out in the process… Dude looked like he was melting into a puddle of sweat while Mike Tyson just kinda no-sold the farce.

    I’m tired of the biggest douches in the world beating talented people in fixed fights…

      I’m honestly surprised anyone thought it wouldn’t go this way.

      Anyone who knows how big of a piece of shit Jake Paul is knew this was going to happen.

      Jake Paul is a piece of shit and so is his brother Logan.
