Fans recently expressed their thoughts on Jake Paul’s unfazed reaction to Mike Tyson pushing him during their confrontation in the pre-fight press conference. The press conference was held on Aug. 18 at the Javits Center in New York during FanaticsFest.
Paul is set to take on Tyson in an exhibition boxing match dubbed ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’, on Nov. 15 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The two fighters were previously slated to face each other on July 20. However, an ulcer flare-up while traveling forced Tyson to withdraw from the fight.

A few hours after their press conference, Paul took to X to address Tyson. ‘The Problem Child’ expressed his belief that he would be teaching the former heavyweight champion, a “painful lesson,” writing:
”This is going to be a painful lesson for Mike Tyson. He likes to say he gave me my start in boxing. Well I’m going to give him his end. #PaulTyson”
Fans soon rushed to the comments section to share their reactions.
One fan wrote:
”I’m embarrassed for you”
Another fan stated:
”Jake, I think you’re not a bad boxer now and I respect you train hard! .. but Mike ended his career a long time ago.”
Other fans wrote:
”Mike is 58 freaking years old and probably needs the money. This is sad, very sad.””Congrats you’re fighting a 60 year old. You shameless loser”

The legendary boxer Mike Tyson came face-to-face with Jake Paul for the first time since their bout was postponed to Nov. 15. Tyson didn’t respond to Paul’s trash talk much, but when he did, it elicited a big reaction from the audience, who were in favor of the boxing great.
In response to Paul’s knockout claims, Tyson gave a strong warning to the celebrity YouTuber, saying:
”Is he really a young 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁er? We’ve got a YouTuber fighting the greatest fighter who ever lived. He may have been in the ring with people who have the same intentions, but the actuality, no. As soon as I catch this guy its going to be totally over, he’ going to run.”
