During the face-off at the official weigh-in for the clash between Jake Paul e Mike Tyson, which takes place this Friday (15), the former champion surprised everyone by delivering a strong slap to the youtuber's face. The situation required the intervention of security guards to prevent a fight from breaking out between the rivals.
Tyson later explained the incident. In an interview with 'The New York Post', the former heavyweight champion revealed that the reason for the slap was a foot stomped on by Jake Paul during the staredown, which, according to him, caused a lot of pain.

“I had socks on and he had shoes on. He stepped on my toe because he’s an idiot. I wanted to believe it was an accident. But now I think it might have been on purpose. I was in so much pain. I had to slap him back.” Tyson said.
