The moment Jake Paul told Mike Tyson to “take it easy” is thought to have been captured on camera, despite claims that the bout was “staged.”
‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ and ‘El Gallo Dorado’ squared off in one of the year’s greatest boxing bouts on Netflix.
In front of 72,000 spectators at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and millions of viewers worldwide, the two engaged in combat over the course of eight two-minute rounds.
In spite of the fact that Tyson is 58 years old and 31 years older than his opponent, some fans thought the event, which was intended to be a night of action and adrenaline, was “underwhelming” and “disappointing.”
Paul ultimately prevailed by unanimous decision, solidifying his reputation in the sport by defeating one of the greatest of all time.
Two days after the major bout, many people are still perplexed as to how Tyson, who is renowned for his knockout strikes, found it difficult to keep up with the 27-year-old YouTuber.
Naturally, many could only think of one explanation—the fight must have been “staged”—rather than examining the stark age difference and the reality that Tyson hasn’t engaged in professional combat in 19 years.
One user posted a video of Tyson striking Paul in the face on X (now Twitter) to demonstrate when they thought this was real. The celebrity responded by sticking out his tongue and glancing up at the veteran.
“Jake Paul is telling Mike to relax.”
Others concurred.
Yes, that was staged as f***. Tyson is a beast, even at the age of 58. Jake wouldn’t be alive if Tyson gave it his all. And to anyone who has a different opinion, join him in the ring and observe how things work out. This user remarked, “This fight was such bulls***.”
“That was an easy combination KO in waiting,” someone else said.
A third added: “I firmly think they came to some sort of understanding because everybody who has ever watched boxing knows that Tyson caught this guy with one combo and he would have been really injured. Tyson must need the money, I suppose.
Another notion was that Tyson continued to bite his glove to tell Paul to loosen up and slow down. “And biting the glove was Mike’s signal,” someone else stated. (Tyson has, however, responded to the biting in his own words.)
But not everybody was in agreement.
“He’s literally signaling that the weak hit did not affect him. “This is referred to as a ‘taunt,'” the individual noted.
What are your thoughts?
“This is one of those situations where you lost but still won,” Tyson wrote on X following the match. Thank you for last night. To get in the ring one last time, there are no regrets.
He went on: “I nearly passed away in June. received eight blood transfusions. In the hospital, I lost half of my blood and twenty-five pounds. I had to strive to recover so that I could fight, and I prevailed.
The renowned fighter then talked candidly about how important it is for his family to attend his show on Friday night.
“To have my children see me stand toe to toe and finish 8 rounds with a talented fighter half my age in front of a packed Dallas Cowboy stadium is an experience that no man has the right to ask for,” he stated. “Thank you.”
