Unexpectedly, Jake Paul and Mike Tyson got into a furious fight that has since gone viral during the last weigh-in for their eagerly awaited boxing match. The event took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, when Tyson slapped Paul across the face after Paul stepped on his foot. Paul’s dramatic declaration that “I’ll kill Mike Tyson” in response to the slap has turned this tense moment into a heated verbal skirmish.
The Incident
Originally intended to be a ceremonial occasion, the weigh-in swiftly descended into chaos. Paul stepped on his foot during the bout, and Tyson, 58, responded by giving the YouTuber-turned-boxer an unexpected open-handed smack. Tyson’s close buddy Tom Patti attested that the slap was a clear response to Paul’s behavior.
Patti clarified, “Jake stepped on Mike’s foot; that prompted the reaction,” highlighting Tyson’s spontaneous rather than planned reaction. Unfazed by the event, Paul minimized the smack on social media. He called Tyson a “angry little elf” and claimed the blow didn’t hurt him. He was unreserved in his declaration of intent for their forthcoming bout, though, saying unequivocally, “He must die.”
