During their faceoff, Tyson walked right up to Paul and slapped the YouTube star-turned-boxer. Security separated the two fighters before the situation escalated.
Paul told Ariel Helwani that he thought it was a “cute slap” before declaring he would knock Tyson out.
“I didn’t even feel it. He’s angry. He’s an angry little elf,” Paul said. “Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap, but tomorrow night I’m knocking you the f*** out. I’m f***ing him up.”
Before the scuffle, Tyson weighed in at 228.4 pounds, while Paul weighed in at 227.2 pounds.
