Mike Tyson predicted that Jake Paul will face “the devil himself” in the scheduled boxing battle on Friday night. At the weigh-in on Thursday, he provided Paul with a sneak peek.
Before the fight on Friday at AT&T Stadium, Tyson and Paul engaged in their final staredown. Tyson weighed in at 233 pounds. Paul, who weighed a career-high 220 pounds, sprang forward from a crawling stance to challenge the competitor who had previously held the title of heavyweight champion.

The YouTuber Jake Paul claims that he “didn’t feel it” when Mike Tyson smacks his opponent Jake Paul during the tumultuous weigh-in that takes place before their contentious heavyweight battle.
When Paul got a little too near, Tyson flung his right hand open and defended himself. While a large number of people were holding Tyson back, Paul handled it like a champion.
Following the events, Tyson informed Ariel Helwani that “all the talk is over” and subsequently left the scene. Paul responded by saying, “He must die.”
It was by far the most acrimonious portion of the entire affair, and it was very much in contrast to Tyson, who has been relatively calm in the days leading up to this event.
Paul has been the one to push the buttons, even going so far as to declare Tyson “boring” during the press conference that took place on Wednesday night. Despite this, Tyson remained relatively silent throughout virtually all of the conferences.
