Tony Bellew threatened to “annihilate” three police officers after being kicked out of the final press conference ahead of Jake Paul’s fight with Mike Tyson.

Bellew stole the show by interrupting the press conference in a stunt organized by Paddy Power. He was accompanied by a pensioner wearing a dressing gown and boxing gloves, whom Bellew introduced as Paul’s next opponent.

As the ancient man began shadow boxing next to him, Bellew said, “Jake Paul, the biggest clown in boxing. If Mike lets you survive Saturday night, I’ve got your next opponent, Jake, here.”

Bellew was immediately ejected from the press conference and almost got into a fight with three police officers, with the former world cruiserweight champion threatening to knock them out.

He explained to talkSPORT: “They were all massive boys. One of them pushed me lightly and I said: ‘Just don’t touch me, I’ll walk around quite cheerful, boys, just don’t raise your hands. on me.” He said, “Okay.”

“When we approached the policeman with the gun in his belt, the guy lightly pushed me in the back. And I said, ‘You are an absolute coward.’ He must have been six feet eight inches elevated. I said, “Do you understand what I would do to you?”

“His partner said, ‘All the talk.’ I replied: ‘It’s not a conversation, it’s a promise. I would annihilate three of you at once. Please don’t do this».

“The policeman said, ‘You’re a fighter, aren’t you? I see how placid you were in the company of these massive boys». I replied, “I don’t really care about them, they don’t intimidate me.”

Time will tell whether Bellew will be in attendance for Paul’s match against Tyson, who is taking part in his first officially sanctioned fight since 2005. About 70,000 fans are expected to watch the fight, and it will be broadcast live on Netflix.

The event was widely criticized by boxing purists who are unhappy that the result will break Tyson’s professional record. Eddie Hearn has already confirmed that he plans to leave the arena before the main event, which he has no intention of watching.

The most significant event of this gala will be Katie Taylor’s fight for the second time with Amanda Serrano, who won her first fight by split decision two years ago.

Boxing fans spent a fortune buying a staggering £1.5million of VIP tickets for Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson. Six guests will receive incredible access to both fighters and a huge range of benefits over three days.

The package includes a pre-fight locker room visit and a custom-built ringside room to elevate the lucky winners above the rest of the crowd. They will also be on stage during the ceremonial weigh-in and will have private entry to all events.

In total, guests can enjoy 12 benefits, which also include a two-night stay at the luxurious Loews Arlington hotel. It is believed that the exclusive package was purchased by personal injury law firm TorkLaw and they will definitely be seen on Netflix due to the proximity of their suite to the ring.

However, early photos of the stadium suggest that guests won’t actually be able to watch the action unfold in front of them. Instead, there are television screens in the walled area that will show the fighting.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul will fight former undisputed world heavyweight champion Tyson on Saturday morning in Texas. Concerns have been raised over the huge 31-year age difference between the fighters.

Paul is in excellent sports shape at the age of 27, and Tyson is 58. Concerns were raised for the boxing icon’s safety and he revealed he even rejected his wife’s advice that he didn’t need to take the fight.

Both fighters are expected to earn huge amounts of money for this fight. Paul boasted that he could earn around £31 million ($40 million), although Tyson downplayed the figures, saying they would not change his life.

The full list of benefits available on the exclusive £1.5 million package includes:

• (2) ringside seats and (4) front row ringside seats
• Impressions in the ring after the fight with the opportunity to take a photo

YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has placed his entire $40 million (£31 million) bet on the outcome of his upcoming fight against boxing legend Mike Tyson. The fight, which will take place next Friday in Dallas, will be Tyson’s first professional fight in almost two decades.

Considering he is 31 years younger than the former undisputed heavyweight champion, Paul is the bookmakers’ favorite to win. During the pre-main event bout, Paul accepted bets from several undercard fighters, including Neeraj Goyat, who bet his $1 million house.

Katie Taylor, who is ready for a rematch with Amanda Serrano, went a step further. When Paul asked her how much she wanted to bet, Taylor replied, “Do you want to bet your wallet?” Without hesitation, Paul agreed, saying, “Yes, let’s put the bag down. Deal” and shook Taylor’s hand.

While many doubt whether the bets will hold, Paul insists that contracts will be signed before Friday evening. Earlier this year, Paul bragged about his earnings from his 12th professional fight.

When asked if he brought Tyson in to “legitimize” his boxing career, Paul replied: “I didn’t bring him in for any shit; “I’m here to make $40 million and knock out a legend I don’t want.” don’t worry about anything else, he wanted it to be a professional fight and he really will get knocked out.”

Paul doesn’t hold back before fighting the legendary Tyson, boasting to reporters: “You’ll see in his record: Jake Paul knocks out Mike Tyson; I’m not here to do shit except make a bag. Every time fighters sit across from me and watch ‘YouTuber this, Disney kid that’ and they end up on the canvas… this will be no different. I offered this deal to this ancient bastard he signed with Netflix and we brought him the deal, you’re welcome my son.

Meanwhile, Tyson made the pre-fight farce clear during his latest press conference, giving terse answers and showing perceptible irritation when asked about a possible loss to Paul. “I said everything I had to say,” Tyson declared, quickly trying to deflect further questions.

But not to be silenced, he assured firmly, “I’m not going to lose.” When pressed again, his patience wore slim as he repeated, “Did you hear what I said?” In a edged response, Paul joked: “That’s cute. I’m not afraid of any man, so I want him to be wild ancient Mike.
