Jake Paul defeated Mike Tyson by unanimous decision in a controversial fight held in Texas, which raised questions about its legitimacy as a professional match. Paul admitted to slowing down the pace to avoid hurting Tyson, who is 31 years older than him. Tyson, despite landing only 18 punches compared to Paul's 78, attributed his performance to a knee injury but refused to use it as an excuse. The fight's classification as professional has been challenged by some, including former boxer Carl Froch, who pointed out Tyson's lack of a license and the unusual fight format.
