Their face off got heated as Paul and Tyson faced off following media questions, with the former heavyweight champion throwing a joking punch before a Tyson shoved him. It looked like Tyson was trying to get a reaction out of Paul. That tactic it seemed like it definitely worked later on.
Jake Paul was unloading verbal assaults on Tyson throughout the press conference but Tyson didn’t engage too much but did issue this warning to Paul He told Paul that he had better arrive in shape because his “health depends on it”.
Without a doubt Paul did not appreciate that comment by Tyson and let him know who is responsible to the format for the rounds.
“You’re the one that wanted eight, two-minute rounds,” Paul told Tyson after he was warned that he better arrive to the fight in shape. “You want ten threes? Don’t talk to me about shape, that’s the thing, everyone is all talk.
Paul became heated and took a shot a Tyson’s city which was met with a ton of boo’s from the home crowd. “Hey New York, shut the f*ck up New York. Boo yourselves, boo yourselves New York. New York, you’re just like Mike Tyson. You were good 20 years ago, f*ck you New York, f*ck you! Dumb a** democratic city.”
