DAMN! Mike Tyson Is ACTUALLY Scared Of Jake Paul Before FIGHT…

Jake Paul’s latest podcast episode had his brother Logan as a guest, and it didn’t take long for the upcoming Mike Tyson fight to take center stage of the discussion.

On the BS w/ Jake Paul podcast, Jake had his brother, Logan Paul, on the show to talk about everything going on in the combat sports world.

Naturally, only minutes into the show, Logan asked whether or not Jake was nervous about fighting a former boxing champion of the world.

And not just any former champ — the ‘Baddest Man on the Planet.’ Jake provided an honest assessment of his feelings as the Mike Tyson Netflix match fast approaches.

“Yo, when you see Mike Tyson hitting them pads, do you get a little nervous?” Logan asked.

After a slight delay, Jake replied, “Yeah, I do,” which caused everyone to begin chuckling. But he explained why nerves aren’t necessarily a bad thing. “But, it’s motivating. And I think it’s good to carry fear into the ring and with you on a daily basis when you’re training because it makes you better.

“It excites me that I have my toughest, craziest, and most powerful opponent to date. And the challenge of going up to heavyweight is kind of fun.”

Although Jake believes he is a worthy competitor for Tyson, he sees all the predictions that claim ‘Iron Mike’ will put the YouTuber-turned-boxer to sleep with a single right hook.

“I will say people are underestimating me, though. Because when I go to his comments, people want to do everything they can to discredit me,” Paul remarked.

“They’re just saying that if Mike loses, then fighting is rigged. That’s basically every comment because they see how good he looks on the mitts.”

Then, Jake looked directly into the camera to address Tyson. “But Mike, looking good on the mitts is not even half the battle. You have to face me in the ring.”

Logan chimed in with a ringing endorsement for his brother. He says that when he’s watching a Jake Paul fight, he can tell from those in attendance that they are shocked by how hard ‘The Problem Child’ hits.

“There’s a moment, I can see it watching from the side. They all go, ‘Holy s***, this YouTuber hits much harder than I thought.’

“You can see that change in their eyes, but I’m not sure Mike will have that moment. I think Mike, contrary to your belief, is not underestimating you.”

The two men will share a ring on July 20 in front of a packed AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas. Will Jake’s promise of victory come to fruition, or will Tyson prove the Paul doubters correct?

Jake may be nervous, as he admitted in the podcast, but make no bones about it: He’s chomping at the bit to get in the boxing ring with a living legend and show fans what he can. Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are gearing up for what could be a record-breaking bout just a couple of months away.

The question on everyone’s mind: who has the advantage given their significant age difference? Oddschecker produced figures which showed how the early betting line looks ahead of the fight.

Who is the favorite?
Last month, Jake Paul surprised the world by announcing a summer showdown with Mike Tyson, setting the stage for what could be one of the most-watched boxing matches in history.

While Paul has been steadily building his boxing career over the past year, this match marks a drastic departure from his usual opponents. Tyson, on the other hand, last fought in November 2020 against fellow veteran Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition match.

Before that, Tyson had been retired since 2005. Despite the long hiatus, Tyson impressed in his comeback appearance and has shown that he’s still in formidable shape.

The looming question is whether Paul’s youth and athleticism will be enough to counter Tyson’s seasoned experience in the ring. The odds have been shifting as the fight approaches, reflecting the evolving dynamics of this matchup. Worried boxing fans have said Mike Tyson’s latest training video is “honestly so sad to watch” ahead of his fight with Jake Paul.

Tyson vs Paul was confirmed last month ahead of their bout taking place on July 20.

The one-of-a-kind event will be streamed on Netflix in a first for the platform.

There is a stark 30 year age difference between Tyson, 57 and Paul, 27.

Tyson, one of the most legendary figures in the history of boxing will turn 58 two weeks before the fight takes place.

And his latest training clip has caused concern for fans that think he is too old to get back into the ring.

Tyson was seen in sprint training as he looks to develop his explosive power for the bout.
Netflix is co-promoting the event with Most Valuable Promotions, cofounded by Paul in 2021. The 27-year-old social media personality and rising boxing competitor will face the 57-year-old former world heavyweight champion, who last fought in ’20.
