On April 2, Mike Tyson opened up about his upcoming return to the ring against Jake Paul during a chat with Fox News. While his interview included various eye-opening statements, like him saying he was scared to death over their match, fans found a particular issue with the rules of their fight. “This is called an exhibition, but if you look up exhibition, you won’t see any of the laws we’re fighting under,” Tyson explained. “This is a fight. I don’t think he’s faster than me.”
Shortly after Tyson’s interview hit the airwaves, viewers took to social media to express their skepticism over the fight. One fan on X, formerly known as Twitter, wrote, “Respect Mike and his awesome career, but this is scripted. It’s a fake fight.” Another person added, “Why not be honest and tell it like it is: exhibition for the money.” A third fan echoed similar sentiments, stating Tyson was trying his best to sell the fight for money. “He just wants a bag. There’s no other reason for it,” they concluded.
While various fans have questioned the legitimacy of Tyson and Paul’s fight, the former appears to be taking his impending battle seriously. “I’ve seen a YouTube video of him at 16 doing weird dancing. That’s not the guy I’m fighting,” the legendary fighter exclaimed in his aforementioned interview with Fox News. “This guy who’s going to try and hurt me, which I’m accustomed to, and he’s going to be greatly mistaken.”
