“What You’re Betting On”: Mike Tyson Goes Shirtless to Win Fans’ Trust for Jake Paul Fight

On July 20th, in a once-in-a-lifetime match, Mike Tyson will face Jake Paul inside the AT&T Stadium, Texas. In this connection, while Jake Paul feels he has a chance to prove himself against the ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’, Tyson hopes to “finish” ‘The Problem Child’. As of now, the two are expected to fight in an exhibition match.

But, after the announcement of Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul, the boxing world thought it was absurd that the 57-year-old agreed to fight a 27-year-old opponent in Jake Paul. Among others, the CEO of Golden Boy Promotions, Oscar De La Hoya feared that Paul could be dangerous to Mike Tyson’s legacy. Meanwhile, analyst Stephen A. Smith had difficulty digesting that Tyson, who suffers from a nerve condition called sciatica, considered re-entering the boxing ring.

On the other hand, Jake Paul guaranteed he would outwork Mike Tyson for the fight in July. In this process, ‘The Problem Child’ even worked out with several boxers who qualified to represent the USA in the Paris Olympics 2024. At this, while some people expected Paul to exceed ‘Iron,’ the latter admitted he was scared to death to face Paul.

However, Tyson also admitted that he confronted anything which scared him. “Anything I’m afraid of, I confront it. I’m scared to death. But as the fight gets closer, the less nervous I become because it’s reality. And in reality, I’m invincible,” said Mike Tyson. And now, to solidify his fans’ trust in him, Tyson uploaded a shirtless photo to display his ripped physique.

“Yes I did go shirtless, to show you what you’re betting on,” he wrote on Instagram. In other words, Tyson wanted to tell his fans that he had been working hard for the fight and would confront Paul with the best version of himself. As expected, several people positively reacted to it.
