Jake Paul has issued a fierce warning to Mike Tyson after the boxing legend slapped him during their final face-off.
Things heated up during the pair’s final encounter before their highly anticipated boxing match. After weeks of build-up, with delays from Tyson’s side, the big fight is finally happening tonight.
Tyson seemed unable to hold back from Paul’s provocations. After the weigh-in, the 27-year-old taunted Tyson by crawling across the floor, then rising to meet the “Kid Dynamite” face-to-face. Standing on Tyson’s foot, Paul pushed his luck until Tyson retaliated with a slap. Tyson appeared ready to go further, but a scuffle broke out as his team intervened.

As the YouTuber hyped up the crowd, he shrugged off the slap, saying, “I didn’t even feel it. He’s angry, he’s an angry little elf. Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap buddy, but tomorrow you’re getting knocked the f**k out.”
Things escalated further when Paul delivered a harsher warning over the mic: “I’m f**king him up, he hits like a b*tch. It’s personal now, it’s personal now, he must die.”

Reactions on social media were mixed. One user commented, “Telling a (near) 60-year-old legend ‘he must die’ is wild.” Another noted, “Jake comes in emotional, swinging for the fences and gassed out. Mike knows what he’s doing. Emotional fighters don’t perform well.” Some remarked that the “slap spun Paul’s whole neck around” and predicted, “Tyson is going to knock him out.” However, Paul has his own share of supporters who are backing him.
Jake later tweeted:
“This is a pinch me moment. I got slapped by Mike Tyson.”
