Jake Paul defeats Mike Tyson in lackluster fight in Texas

oregonlive.com

Jake Paul defeated 58-year-old Mike Tyson by unanimous decision in Arlington, Texas, on Friday night. The fight, which marked Tyson's first sanctioned bout in nearly 20 years, drew boos from fans disappointed by the lack of action. Judges scored the fight 80-72 and 79-73 in favor of Paul. Tyson started strong but did not maintain his aggression, while Paul struggled with efficiency, leading to a lackluster performance overall. The fight was originally set for July but was postponed due to Tyson's health issues. This matchup contrasted sharply with the co-main event, where Katie Taylor retained her title in a more exciting contest against Amanda Serrano.
