Jake Paul won by unanimous decision of the judges (80-72, 79-73, 79-73), but the fight for which both fighters received a total of several dozen million dollars lacked any major emotions. The fans got eight rounds that were sad to watch. However, not everyone managed to do so. Netflix, which organized the fight, was unable to broadcast the event live.
Lennox Lewis briefly on the Tyson and Paul fight. Just a few words were enough
The fight lasted eight rounds, but it was hard not to get the impression that it was solely due to Jake Paul's courtesy. There were any major emotions only at the very beginning of this fight. Then it looked more like both men didn't want to hurt each other in the first place. Tyson was unable to keep up with his younger opponent. Jake Paul did not use his advantage over the 58-year-old. And such “stalking” lasted almost the entire fight.
Many people did not hide their profession. The fans booed the boxers. The fight between Tyson and Paul was briefly summarized by Lennox Lewis – one of the few who defeated Tyson during his career. Today, both men are friends. – I'm glad no one was knocked out – he said briefly. And the combat level? He himself assessed it positively. – It was a good fight. Great event, he said.
What's next for Mike Tyson? Although the 58-year-old boxer lost to Paul, he apparently enjoyed returning to the ring. He has already announced that this was probably not the last fight of his career – and he challenged Logan Paul, Jake's brother, to a fight. Tyson has already received an answer.
