It’s been more than a month since Jake Paul bagged his biggest career win against Tyron Woodley. The pair squared off in a rematch, wherein the YouTuber turned boxer hammered Woodley with a thunderous right hand. Ever since then, fans have remained curious about his next opponent. Many fans even drew a matchup between ‘The Problem Child’ and the retro heavyweight kingpin, Mike Tyson.
There’s hardly any relevance in this fight as there’s a mammoth gap between the duo’s age, skills, and more. Now, this fantasy fight may be off as Tyson poured cold water on it with his reaction.
When ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ was recently out for dinner in LA with his family, a reporter seemed eager to get his opinion on a potential Jake Paul fight. To everyone’s surprise, Tyson ignored this question and walked ahead.
