Watch: Mike Tyson Slaps Jake Paul

Mike Tyson Slaps Jake Paul

Mike Tyson struck first at the ceremonial weigh-in ahead of his worldwide event tonight on Netflix with Jake Paul.

Both men took to the stage looking focused ahead of their heavyweight professional bout in Arlington, Texas.

Tyson landed a slap on Paul right before they faced off at weigh-ins:

First blood to Tyson.

Paul didn’t flinch but it surely was not expected by him.

Tyson looked in good condition and Paul is not a natural heavyweight whatsoever.

It may have looked like an entertainment spectacle above but Tyson clearly is chomping at the bit, time will tell if he can land one single hard punch on a YouTuber, who can box a little bit by this point, granted, but who has made a career in pro boxing of fighting old MMA fighters mostly thus far.
