The Jake Paul-Mike Tyson mega fight on Nov. 15 hit another gear in the build up, as the two squared off in a press conference Sunday that saw a crowd booing Paul and cheering Tyson.
That’s the latest development in the fight, which was initially scheduled for July but had to be back after Tyson faced a health scare caused by an ulcer.
Paul fought Mike Perry instead and had little trouble with the bare-knuckles fighting champ.
The rescheduled fight against Tyson in AT&T Stadium had to work around the Dallas Cowboys schedule, as they have a home game three days after the fight.
