Mike Tyson slaps Jake Paul during weigh-in as fight approaches
Mike Tyson slapped Jake Paul during their weigh-in face-off on Thursday night, a moment that quickly went viral. The incident reportedly occurred after Paul stepped on Tyson's foot, prompting the slap. Despite the physical altercation, Paul downplayed the incident, comparing it to Chris Rock's experience at the Oscars. He later described the slap as a "pinch me moment" and shifted his tone from seeking revenge to a more lighthearted response. The fight between Tyson and Paul is set for Friday night, with both fighters weighing in just before the confrontation. Paul weighed in at just over 226 pounds, while Tyson was slightly heavier.
