Fans are convinced Mike Tyson will beat Jake Paul
BOXING fans are convinced Mike Tyson is going to beat Jake Paul when the pair meet in the ring after footage comparing the two fighters training went viral.
Former unified heavyweight champion, Tyson, is going up against Youtuber-turned-boxing opponent, Paul, in a controversial worldwide exhibition match in July.
The showdown between the pair who are separated by 30 years of age has drawn criticism from many athletes and pundits due to the dangers involved for both competitors.
However, the duo appear to be taking everything in their stride as they work through their training camps ahead of meeting in the ring at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Tyson recently shared a clip of his heavy-hitting drills that show the 57-year-old is training to be in prime condition, while Paul appears to be taking a more relaxed approach to preparations.
Fans now believe a clip showing the varying degrees of intensity involved in both camps could spell disaster for Paul when he steps into the ring with Tyson.
The video shows Tyson smashing pads with his training staff and throwing down medicine balls with frightening force as the former undisputed champion attempts to overcome the age obvious age difference. Meanwhile, Paul is filmed taking punches in the abs while drinking from a bottle, lifting weights and dancing inside the gym.
Reactions quickly began piling in as boxing fans gave their predictions that Tyson will emerge victorious against his younger and less experienced opponent.
One comment posted on X read: ‘The only reason Tyson losing this match if this was a set up.’
Another fan hilariously added: ‘If Iron Mike catches him with a solid right hook, Paul is going to start a cooking channel.’
A third supporter of Tyson’s stated: ‘Man, no one moves like Tyson. He stays so tight and compact but is so quick and powerful. Love to see it again.’
