What was supposed to be just another staredown before the big fight turned into one of the most tense moments of the week in the world of boxing. On Thursday night (14), during the official weigh-in for the fight against Jake Paul, Mike Tyson starred in a scene that left everyone speechless: the former world champion delivered a strong slap to the YouTuber's face.
Wearing only underwear and a custom jacket, Tyson displayed a defiant stance. While Jake Paul, more restrained, awaited the face-off, the veteran approached with firm steps and connected a straight punch to the opponent's face. The reaction was immediate: security guards and team members had to intervene to separate the two.
