27-year-old YouTube star Jake Paul defeated 58-year-old former Heavyweight Champion boxer Iron Mike Tyson in a unanimous decision Friday night.
The fight was originally set for July 20, but Tyson suffered a medical emergency in May, The Gateway Pundit reported.
Friday’s fight comes after things turned ugly at the weigh-in Thursday when Mike Tyson slapped Jake Paul, creating even more anticipation for the months-delayed fight.

Both men lasted the entire eight rounds without any knockdowns or knockouts.
Mike Tyson called Jake Paul a “great fighter” after the fight. Tyson further said he doesn’t think this will be his last fight and suggested that he would fight Jake Paul’s brother, Logan.
Throughout the fight, Tyson was seen biting his glove and when asked about the repeated biting, Tyson hilariously responded, “I have a biting fixation.” Recall that Mike Tyson famously bit off part of Evander Holyfield’s ear back in 1997.
Jake Paul shared a patriotic message, proclaiming his pride in the United States of America.
During the fight, a member of Jake Paul’s team was seen wearing a hat that read, “Make America Healthy Again,” a nod to Trump’s appointee for Health and Human Services Secretary, RFK. Jr.
