“The Script” – Terence Crawford’s controversial take on the Jake Paul fight
Undisputed three-weight world champion Terence Crawford accused Jake Paul of writing a script for his fight with Mike Tyson.
Crawford summarized the Paul-Tyson fight.
“The Problem Child” fought Tyson in 2024 at AT&T Stadium in Texas.
The event aired live on Netflix during the historic night.
“Bud” recently appeared in The Joe Rogan experience and discussed the fight, claiming the former world heavyweight champion was forced to hold back.
“I think so [Paul vs Tyson] was written. I never saw Tyson bite his gloves and he had to do everything in his power not to hit him.
“It’s painful to see an icon continue in this condition.”
Tyson once ruled the heavyweight division. At the age of 20, he became the youngest heavyweight champion in history, defeating Trevor Berbick in the second round.
“Iron Mike” went down in history as one of the most recognizable and at the same time threatening players in the history of the sport.
His return at the age of 59 came as a shock to many, especially after the first fight with Paul was postponed due to “life-threatening” health complications Tyson experienced in the months before the fight.
Crawford continued and discussed the financial side of the competition.
“He shouldn’t have been there at all. There are other ways [to make money]”
There are rumors that Tyson pocketed a hefty sum of $20,000,000 and Paul received double the amount of $40,000,000, according to Sports News.
Crawford recently retired with an astonishing record of 42 fights and 42 wins, 31 of which came after a stoppage.
“Bud” ended his career with the best possible fight of his career against Canelo Alvarez. The event was also streamed live on Netflix.
He dominated throughout the 12-round fight, despite moving up two weight classes, to become the undisputed world champion in five weight classes and the undisputed world champion in three weight classes.
Crawford talked about a potential fight with Paul himself when he appeared on the show Club Shay Shay Podcast already in April last year. He initially ended the fight with Paul.
“No, (I wouldn’t fight Jake Paul). Yes, Jake is gigantic, but he does his thing, let Jake do what Jake does.”
Crawford jokingly changed his mind when he heard what the stakes might be for fighting Paul.
“I’m fighting Jake Paul. I’m gonna fight Jake Paul, come on Jake. Hey, Logan (Paul) I gotta fight your brother, man.”

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
