Mike Tyson’s latest stunt backfires ahead of Jake Paul fight

The controversy began when Mike Tyson shared a training video on social media, aiming to showcase his preparation for the fight. Unfortunately, the video raised eyebrows among fans.

In the footage, Tyson can be seen running in an overly cau·tious fashion, accompanied by audible groans as he reaches top speeds during a short sprint. The run for some seems very caricature and actually seems to be doing the opposite of what the video intended.

The caption, “I’m coming for you,” added to the intrigue, but some questioned whether Tyson was fully committed to his return to Boxing

Mixed reactions among Tyson’s fans

Fans have been divided in their responses. Some appreciate Tyson’s dedication and believe he’s intentionally playing mind Games with Paul. Others accuse him of “faking” his training videos, questioning his commitment to the fight.

In another sparring session video, Tyson squared off with a member from his camp in a Nevada parking lot. His quickness was evident as he delivered strikes to the trainer’s body and hands, including a powerful right hook.

Tyson and Paul are scheduled to face off on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The trash-talking has already begun, setting the stage for an intriguing clash between the seasoned veteran and the brash YouTube sensation.
