“I have nothing more to say, “I just want to fight”: serious, without half measures and with little desire for jokes, this is how he showed himself Mike Tyson during the press conference before the weigh-in.
And boy, is he not doing anything stupid. In the early hours of this Friday, at the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T stadium in Arlington, where the fight will take place in the early hours of Saturday to Sunday, the former heavyweight champion demonstrated it.
Jake Paul approached him and stepped on himgetting a response from ‘Iron Mike’ a slap on his face and this forced both fighters’ teams to intervene to separate themselves.
“The words are finished”repeated the 58-year-old former boxer, who will fight again almost 20 years after his last professional fight, before leaving the scene.
Paul, for his part, continues his defiant attitude: “I didn’t even feel the blow. The guy is angry and now it’s become a personal matter. must die“.
The fight will award a total prize of 60 million dollarsof which 40 will go to Jake Paul and 20 to Mike Tyson.
