Mike Tyson remained still on why he punched Jake Paul during their fight, but warned his rival that he was “ready”. The heavyweight legend seemed to take offense as Paul crawled up to him and then jumped in his face after the weigh-in.

Tyson punched Paul before security guards and band members intervened to separate the pair. When tranquil was restored, Tyson simply stated, “I’m ready,” sinking to describe his actions.

Paul shot back: “I didn’t even feel it, he’s livid. He’s an livid little elf.” He continued: “Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap, dude, but you’re gonna get knocked out tomorrow. Fuck him, Ariel, I’m fucked *hits on him. It hits like hell… It’s personal now, personal now. He must die!”

Tyson was still all week and barely spoke at Wednesday’s press conference, but he came alive after stepping on the scale yesterday. He weighed 228.4 pounds, six pounds heavier than Paul, who had bulked up from the 200-pound cruiserweight limit since he knocked out Mike Perry in six rounds in July.

Paul has an impressive record of 10 wins from 11 professional fights, with his only defeat coming at the hands of Tommy Fury last year. He bolstered his fighting resume with victories over former MMA stars such as Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz.

Additionally, he secured a knockout against former NBA player Nate Robinson during the undercard of Tyson’s 2020 exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr, which ended in a stalemate. The upcoming fight, rescheduled for July, will be officially registered on Tyson’s professional record, although it will consist of eight two-minute rounds and wearing 14-ounce gloves instead of the standard 10-ounce gloves.

At a recent press conference, when Tyson was asked about critics downplaying the fight, he replied: “Oh well. The people (here) speak for themselves. I don’t have to answer.” Faced with the potential impact of loss, the legendary “Iron Mike” bristled with confidence, asserting, “I won’t lose,” and doubling down on his meaning, “I won’t lose. Did you hear what I said? ?”

Despite the significant age difference, Paul is 27 years aged and is the favorite. However, Tyson remained unfazed, stating: “Thank you. Hey, I’m fine, everything’s fine.” Tyson stated: “I’m only interested in this fight. “I’m not talking about fighting anyone, just Jake.”

He had previously engaged in verbal sparring, calling Paul a “fabricated killer” in comparison to his self-proclaimed “born killer” status. However, during the pre-fight media event, he appeared dejected, simply remarking, “Yeah, that’s what I said, that’s what I said.”

Carl Froch believes the Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight was “scripted” to give Paul a win.

Froch has been critical of Paul for years, and he’s not holding back on Friday’s fight between the YouTuber-turned-boxer and Tyson on streaming giant Netflix.

“Iron Mike,” who will turn 59 in June, will end a nearly 20-year hiatus to face the 27-year-old at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The two fight over eight two-minute rounds in a professional fight, but “The Cobra” believes the fight will go to Paul.

“I think it’s a scripted fight and will last three or four rounds,” he told GB News via Casino.org.

“Jake Paul will definitely win; Tyson may start well, but then he will fall.

“Paul cannot lose. It’s in the contract, he can’t lose.

“He’s a useless idiot.”

The American rivals were supposed to fight on July 20, but the fight was postponed due to Tyson’s injury ulcer exacerbation.

Tyson, the former undisputed heavyweight champion, was questioned about fighting someone of Paul’s caliber, but Froch does not believe the outcome will have an impact on his legacy.

“I don’t think so, no,” he added when asked if the defeat would impact his legacy.

“I think it’s unlikely he would grab the microphone and start bragging after beating up an elderly man.

“If so, he really has more illusory energy than I thought.

“Mike Tyson is an iconic name after what he achieved in sport when he was physically fit and capable, but not at the age of 58.”

Tyson remained mute at Wednesday’s final press conference, insisting he was ready to fight for the first time as a professional since his 2005 loss to Kevin McBride.

Even Paul was left to handle most of the promotional issues during the press conference confrontation with those on the bottom card who chose a Brooklyn legend to beat him.

Both pairs will face each other for the last time at the weigh-in on Thursday at 6:00 p.m. Polish time.

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.
