Boxing icon Mike Tyson has launched a devastating verbal assault on YouTube sensation turned prizefighter Jake Paul, issuing a grave warning about their upcoming blockbuster showdown.
In an interview that has sent shockwaves through the sporting world, 'Iron' Mike didn't mince his words when assessing Paul's chances. The former undisputed heavyweight champion declared that the social media star is entering a realm of danger he cannot possibly comprehend.
"He's going to get killed," Tyson stated with chilling matter-of-factness, leaving little room for doubt about his intentions for the fight scheduled to be streamed live on Netflix.
But the 57-year-old legend wasn't finished there. Seemingly energised by discussing combat, Tyson then turned his attention to long-time nemesis Floyd Mayweather, reopening old wounds from their storied rivalry.
The animosity between the two fighting greats is legendary, and Tyson poured petrol on the fire with scathing remarks about Mayweather's character and legacy within the sport.
This explosive double-barrelled attack sets the stage for what promises to be one of the most talked-about sporting events of the year. The Tyson vs Paul spectacle continues to blur the lines between sporting contest and global entertainment, capturing the attention of both boxing purists and mainstream audiences alike.
With Netflix's immense global platform ensuring a record-breaking viewership, the pressure is mounting for both men to back up their words in the ring.
