In yet another news conference face-off ahead of their much-hyped Nov. 15 fight, Mike Tyson largely refused to respond in kind to a trash-talking Paul.
Jake Paul was greeted with sustained jeers during a Sunday press conference to promote his November boxing match against the legendary fighter Mike Tyson—and the 27-year-old social media influencer-turned-boxing sensation gave it right back.
“Boo yourselves. Boo yourselves, New York,” he added. “You’re just like Mike Tyson—you were good 20 years ago. F–k you, New York. Dumbass Democratic city.”Iron Mike was more subdued than his younger counterpart, who repeatedly baited him, including calling him an “old-a– motherf—er.” To jeers from the crowd, Paul said, “Yeah, you had to go on your little menopause break and postpone the fight.
In late May, less than two months before the original July 20 date for their fight, Tyson suffered a reported health emergency aboard a flight from Miami to Los Angeles. A representative characterized the issue as an “ulcer flare-up.”
