Jake Paul admits \u201cruthless\u201d Mike Tyson could \u2019embarrass\u2019 him despite massive age gap YouTube: The Journey \/ IMPAULSIVEJake Paul has said he won\u2019t \u2018take it easy\u2019 on Mike Tyson, as the YouTuber-turned-boxer believes \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike could very easily \u2018embarrass\u2019 him in their upcoming superfight. It\u2019s been two months since Jake Paul and Mike Tyson announced that they would, finally, be fighting in July and the criticism around the fight hasn\u2019t exactly died down. Plenty of boxing fans, pundits, and fighters have pointed to the 31-year age gap between the two fighters, with many being concerned that \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike is stepping back into the ring as a 57-year-old. With every Jake fight, there have been claims that the YouTuber-turned-boxer has a script for the match-up, and that it would be \u201crigged\u201d in his favor \u2013 especially given that it\u2019s going to be broadcast by Netflix. He has, again, played down those claims, especially given that the fight will be contested under professional rules. Jake has also admitted that he won\u2019t \u2018take it easy\u2019 on the Heavyweight boxing icon, especially as he believes \u2018Iron\u2019 Mike could \u2018embarrass\u2019 him if given the chance. \u201cAbsolutely not because if he has the same opportunity you know damn well he is going to finish me in embarrassing fashion So, I have to reciprocate that same energy. But Mike Tyson is a killer. He\u2019s ruthless,\u201d the YouTuber-turned-boxer told TMZ Sports after being asked if he\u2019d have any \u201chesitation\u201d to knock him out. Timestamp of 4:40 \u201cHe\u2019s the most vicious champion ever. So, I have to channel that Mike Tyson energy to finish him. And the legend must fall,\u201d Jake added. The 27-year-old also noted that the fight is \u201cwild\u201d and \u201cdoesn\u2019t make any sense\u201d because of how big it\u2019s become. He\u2019s expecting the viewership to be in the \u201chundreds of millions,\u201d too. That is a bold claim, but its what Jake has become known for. And, he\u2019s typically backed things up in his boxing career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
