AdvertisementPaul spent much of the fight dancing around Tyson with his arms arrogantly low, taunting the legendary knockout artist to come close. Hardly anyone, conversely, will be calling for a rematch of the main event between Paul and Tyson. The YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul was far quicker in his combinations, far twitchier in his reflexes and far more fluid in his combinations, using his three-inch height advantage to keep Tyson out of range. But despite the exhibition-like rule changes, the fight was certainly spirited, with Paul sticking his tongue out to mock Tyson at one point. At the weigh-ins Thursday, Tyson delivered a stiff slap to Paul after Paul appeared to step on one of his feet.

At 58 years old, Tyson will fight Jake Paul, the 27-year-old YouTube-star-turned-boxer who wasn’t even born when Tyson’s career was in its prime. It’s Tyson’s first sanctioned professional match since 2005. Lewis largely controlled the fight, as the champion survived Tyson’s round one onslaught and controlled the pace with strong jabs. The loss accelerated the end of Tyson’s professional career. His final professional bout — until Friday’s against Paul — came against McBride in 2005.
