The controversial boxing sensation Jake Paul is itching to get into the ring and look for the sixth consecutive win. Unlike his previous clashes, this win would not be a common exhibition victory because if it turns real, then it would come against one of the greatest UFC fighters of all time, Anderson Silva. The duo agreed to meet on October 29.

Ahead of this highly anticipated clash, an interesting event surfaced on YouTube, which describes how the former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson reacted when he saw Jake Paul sparring in renowned coach Freddie Roach’s gym.

Speaking to FightHype.com, Roach said, “He came here with Tyson and Tyson looked at him and left. He Watched him 30 seconds and said Freddie can we go downstairs and look at the pictures. Because that’s where the real my gym and he knows that’s where the good pictures are.”

After telling this, Roach finally admitted that Tyson showed no interest in Paul’s sparring. Notably, the former professional boxer turned trainer Roach is one of the most successful coaches of all times. He trained several Hall of Famers, including ‘The Baddest Man on Planet.”

What did Hasim Rahman Jr. mention about Jake Paul?

Like Paul, the heavyweight division pugilist Hasim Rahman Jr. is also going to fight the MMA legend Vitor Belfort in the coming month. The son of heavyweight champ was all set to face Paul earlier in August, but due to the issue of weight management, that fight was ruled out.

But it made the rivalry between the two more intense. So when Rahman Jr. got an opportunity to mock ‘The Problem Child’, he immediately took to the Twitter and wrote,Ayo @MikeTyson watched Jake Paul spar for 30 seconds and said “Can we go downstairs and look at some pictures?” I’m CRINE S/O @fighthype.”
