Jake Paul and Mike Tyson entered the ring to stage a historic intergenerational boxing duel.
This Friday, the AT&T Stadium in Arlington (USA) saw one of the most anticipated matches of the year. Jake Paul and Mike Tyson entered the ring at the Dallas Cowboys stadium to stage a historic intergenerational boxing duel.
Although Tyson even managed to be offensive early in the fight, Paul’s youth became more effective as the fight went on. Managing to impose himself in the ring, the YouTuber ended up taking home the victory by decision of the judges.
The fight
The duel began with Tyson going on the attack and dealing with Paul’s dodges and escapes. The first round was characterized by the fact that the two fighters failed to connect their shots, which missed. Only in the second round did the former world heavyweight champion land a nice left on the YouTuber, who responded with a hook that went close to his rival.
A cross from Mike Tyson scored at the start of the third round and thrilled the fans at AT&T Stadium. Jake Paul would also have a cross that would shock the boxing legend and he would soon start dictating the pace of the fight, taking advantage of his age and better physical condition than his opponent, who had reduced the offensive pace from the fourth round onwards.
With Tyson’s “foot on the brake”, Paul tried to assert himself, striking and moving away to avoid coming into range of the veteran’s hand. Despite still having good movement and a good dodging game, the former world champion was no longer hitting as much as he could and became easy prey for his younger rival, taking a left punch that hit “Iron” once again. .
Jake Paul’s position was offensive, but without exposing himself to the risk of being knocked out by Tyson, always managing to strike quickly and escape. In the final stages the YouTuber showed that despite his opponent’s experience, he could not keep up with the youth of the social media star. In the last round, the legend of the noble art also had the opportunity to annoy Paul, but he continued to dictate the pace of the fight and dealt, in the last seconds, another good blow to his rival. And so he beat Tyson on points,
Whinderson Nunes loses in professional debut
Brazil also made its mark in Friday’s event in Arlington. In his first official fight as a professional boxer, Whindersson Nunes faced the Indian Neeraj Goyat and showed aggression in the first minutes of the fight at the AT&T Stadium, but his opponent, much more experienced than the Piauà native, tried to secure control of fighting using uppers and waistline strikes.
Keeping up the offensive pace, Whindersson responded and attacked Goyat in the second round, with the latter taunting the comedian. The Indian even brought him closer to the ropes, without taking the initiative to try to end the fight. The fight continued to be controversial, with both fighters going head-to-head and using the best they had. This despite Goyat, at a certain point in the fight, making obscene gestures by grabbing the Brazilian’s back.
Whindersson began to feel the fight and, although he attempted to attack Goyat, he let the Indian come and managed a head shot during the fifth round. However, the piauà continued to look for the opportunity to deliver the ideal blow, while the opponent continued to provoke the piauÃ. The comedian went to the end and the last moments were very competitive and had good exchanges, but in the end, for the judges, Neeray Goyat prevailed as the winner by unanimous decision;
