The controversial situation occurred in the 5th round of the match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul on November 16. Specifically, in an exchange of punches, “Iron Fist” Mike Tyson threw a left hook that hit his opponent’s jaw.

However, Jake was not hurt after this blow. The 27-year-old YouTuber even stuck out his tongue to provoke Mike Tyson.

Jake’s actions have angered many people. Fans believe that Jake needs to respect a legend like Mike. In addition, this Youtuber is only as old as Mike’s “grandchild”, as he is 31 years younger than Mike.

“This is so annoying. Doesn’t he know that he is standing in front of the greatest legend in the boxing world?” one person said.

“This action is unacceptable. He was flirting with someone 30 years older than him. Remember, when Mike became the world champion, he wasn’t even born yet,” another account said.

However, Jake regained some sympathy when he bowed to Mike at the last second of the match.
