Mike Tyson has already made his presence felt ahead of his fight with Jake Paul, slapping his opponent across the face at their final face-off before their big bout. The intense moment was captured on video, adding to the growing anticipation surrounding the fight.

The confrontation took place after the Thursday weigh-in, where the two fighters stood face to face. Tyson, known for his explosive energy, slapped Jake Paul across the cheek with a right-hand punch. It didn’t stop there, as Tyson appeared to throw another punch below the belt, which missed its target. Paul, ever the provocateur, taunted Tyson, seemingly daring him to land another blow.
