YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul beat former heavyweight world champion Mike Tyson takes on points in one of the biggest exhibition fights of all-time.The contest took place at the 80,000-seat AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the United States.
Tyson’s last professional fight was in 2005, but he’s competed in a series of exhibition fights, with his most recent being against Roy Jones Jr on November 28, 2020.
Al Jazeera commentary:
It was one of the most anticipated sporting events in history as a social-media celebrity turned boxer faced arguably the greatest to ever enter the ring.
The wonder and curiosity of just what would lie in store drew in the crowds, but Tyson walks away with his head held high, while for Paul the world of boxing, as well as celebrity, is now at his feet.
