Jake Paul won on points the highly anticipated show match against Mike Tyson, who returned to the ring at 58 years old. The young 27-year-old, who is also an actor and YouTuber, won the match with a unanimous decision from the three judges. At the end of the match, which lasted 8 rounds, the young boxer paid homage to Iron Mike by making a small bow towards the former world champion a few seconds before the final bell.
Tyson fought the match with a brace on his right knee in front of over 72,000 people who packed the Dallas Cowboys stadium in Texas. Among them also numerous personalities from the world of entertainment, cinema and show business. At the end of the match, preceded in recent days by constant bickering, the two indulged in a brief embrace. “Tyson is a legend, it was an honor,” Paul said. “I wouldn’t be here today without him. He’s one of the greatest who ever lived.” “I’m happy – Tyson’s words at the end of the match -. I didn’t have to prove anything to anyone, but only to myself”.
