Jake Paul Unsurprisingly Defeats Mike Tyson, Accepts Gervonta Davis’ Challenge To Step In The Ring

 

Jake Paul defeated an aged Mike Tyson in Netflix’s first-ever live sporting event leaving social media in an uproar.

Last night Netflix extended dominance in live streaming with the highly anticipated Jake Vs Mike Tyson global boxing event. Unfortunately, the live stream suffered buffer after buffer leaving many unable to watch on their smart tvs while iPhones and iPad reigned supreme. As the bell sounded it was evident to everyone with eyes Mike’s muscle memory was there but his legs however were not the same.

While Jake pulled punches on the boxing legend Mike was attempting to go for blood but couldn’t quite get himself in position. Towards the end, the usually cocky Paul coasted the icon to the finish line.

“Yeah, definitely. Definitely a bit. I wanted to give the fans a show, but I didn’t want to hurt someone that didn’t need to be hurt.” Paul confirmed when asked if he let off the gas after round three.

Paul also saw the backlash on social media and revealed he didn’t feel Tyson’s power, which likely prompted a change in the match’s game plan.

“I tried to give the best fight I possibly could, but when someone’s just surviving in the ring, basically it’s hard to make it exciting.” Paul explained. “So I couldn’t really get him to engage me or slip shots and do something super cool or whatever, but I don’t care about what people have to say. They’re always going to have something to say and that it is what it is.”

According to CNN, Paul’s unanimous win came with judges ruling 80-72-,79-73 and 79-73. While the fight was entertaining Mike had zero business in the ring. Immediately after the event Gervonta Davis wasted no time calling Jake Paul a “bozo” for stepping in the ring with Mike and not getting the knockout.

“To the bozo that shared the ring w Mike..you a whole bozo for this and you didn’t get the job done [sh*t emoji] head..” – Gervonta posted on Instagram. ”One more thing… ima beat the brakes off Jake when I catch em…upper cut jap jap left hook upper cut..hook. Watch.” wrote Davis in a follow up post.


This was a strategic play to make Netflix’s night about himself as he is the face of traditional boxing. Jake Paul surprisingly accepted his challenge responding “I mean I’d be down let’s run it” before taking a jab at Davis’ height. With the insane payday attached it’s only a matter of time before Gervonta or Conor McGregor step up to get in the ring with Paul.
