The long-awaited boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul was full of excitement and unexpected moments. Hosted at AT&T Stadium and streamed live on Netflix, the fight attracted global attention. It wasn’t just the fight itself that had people talking, but also the intense build-up, including fiery exchanges and a memorable pre-fight incident involving Tyson.
Before the fight, Tyson promised fans a “vicious win.” However, during a locker room interview, things took a surprising turn. As Tyson walked away from the camera, he accidentally exposed his naked butt. The moment quickly went viral, with Netflix sharing the clip on social media and captioning it, “Mike Tyson’s pre-fight interview got real cheeky. #PaulTyson.”
Fans were left in disbelief, with one joking, “I’ll be having nightmares tonight.”
The drama continued at the weigh-in, where Tyson slapped Paul after a brief confrontation. Video footage showed Paul accidentally stepping on Tyson’s foot, which clearly angered the 58-year-old boxer. Tyson responded by slapping Paul across the face and pointing towards the ground, a move that caused some tension before the two were separated.
According to Tyson’s close friend, Tom Patti, who spoke with USA TODAY Sports, the slap was a reaction to Paul stepping on Tyson’s foot. Patti explained, “Jake stepped on Mike’s foot, that prompted the reaction. I was there and Mike just told me.
