New Mike Tyson Video Shows Him Purposely Not Hitting Jake Paul
A new video that began making the rounds on social media late Tuesday night showed Mike Tyson purposely avoiding a clean hit on Jake Paul.
Given that a clip had already gone viral showing Paul seemingly signaling something to Tyson and a sequence seemingly confirming the bout was rigged, for obvious reasons this most recent video caused something of a stir.
Last Friday’s match between Tyson and Paul left a bad taste in people’s mouths for a number of reasons. The fact that a ring girl had her private photos leak out, a blonde woman having to knock out a man behind her in the stands, and the overall business of the Tyson-Paul fight itself rubbed many viewers the wrong way.
The talk of the match being fixed didn’t help matters. And neither did this video:

Tyson is an undeniable legend in the sport of boxing. And Paul is about as polarizing a figure as you can get in pop culture.
Those two things coupled with how their fight ultimately went down explains why there have been so many conspiracy theories floating around over the past few days.
That being said – unless someone comes out and confesses to something, there is really nothing anyone can say or do.
Was the Tyson-Paul fight rigged? Maybe. A real answer will likely never come out, though.
