Jake Paul might have won his historic game against Mike Tyson. Surely, it will boost his boxing CV as well. But in reality, Paul is getting brutally trolled for his antics at the AT&T Stadium. Going the distance with the former boxing legend, Paul dominated for the majority of their matchup. Unfortunately, whatever transpired inside the ring was not taken on a lighter note by the fans and reputed boxing personalities.
Reacting to the victory, the grandson of the great Muhammad Ali, Nico Ali Walsh, took a hilarious dig at ‘The Problem Child’. Ali Walsh feared that if his grandfather had been alive, Paul just might have called him out as his next opponent. Taking to his X account, Nico Ali Walsh stated, “Jake Paul is an embarrassment to this sport… If my grandfather was still around, he’d call him out.”
This was a reference to how Jake Paul has been constantly fighting retired boxers. Even in this case too, Tyson is 30 years older than Jake Paul. And it really showed in his performance inside the ring. Tyson looked like a shadow of his previous self. After the initial two rounds, Tyson was seen to be panting and out of breath. Thus, winning over such an opponent also made the fans significantly angry.
