Jake Paul won a unanimous decision by two scores of 79-73 and a 80-72 shutout as the former world champion was unable to land telling blows

Summary

Jake Paul defeated 58-year-old Mike Tyson in an eight-round boxing match, with unanimous scores of 79-73 and 80-72.

The bout, widely criticized as a “stunted show,” highlighted Tyson’s physical decline, including issues with sciatica, a stomach ulcer, and knee problems.

Tyson, once a feared heavyweight champion, struggled to compete, while Paul’s performance lacked effort and authenticity.

Fans, initially supportive of Tyson, grew disenchanted, booing by the final rounds.

Tyson dismissed the fight’s significance beforehand, rejecting the concept of legacy as meaningless. The event was seen as a cynical, contrived spectacle.
