Description
Iron Mike took the first shot. And that was 24 hours before the opening bell.
Boxing legend Mike Tyson, 58, and internet star Jake Paul, 27, squared off Thursday night for their weigh-in ahead of their massive Netflix-streamed fight at AT&T Stadium on Friday night. And as the two brash fighters stood nose to nose, Tyson took his right hand and slapped Paul across the face.
Security pushed Tyson away, as Paul -- to his credit -- seemed unfazed, tapping his cheek as he stared back at Tyson. Paul then started laughing as he faced the crowd.
“The talk is over,” said a 228-pound Tyson as the event came to its rather abrupt end in the wake of his slap.
Before storming off stage, the 227-pound Paul screamed his own perspective on the matter into the microphone: "Now, it's personal."
