I look up to him, I\u2019m inspired by him, and we wouldn\u2019t be here today without him. This man is an icon, and it\u2019s just an honour to be able to fight him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The opening rounds were fairly tame as the two boxers got acclimated to each other\u2019s fight styles.<\/p>\n<p>Tyson came out aggressively in the third round, clipping Paul early. However, Paul responded several moments later, catching Tyson with several well-thrown punches, appearing to rock the former heavyweight champion.<\/p>\n<p>The 58-year-old also started to show signs of fatigue for the first time in the match.<\/p>\n<p>Paul continued to take control of the fight from there, landing his combinations and giving Tyson trouble with his jabs. Tyson showed bursts of energy throughout the later rounds but never proved to be a real threat.<\/p>\n<p>Tyson was asked after the fight if he felt like he had proved to the world that he could go the distance despite his age.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t prove nothing to anybody, only to myself. I\u2019m not one of those guys that looks to please the world. I\u2019m just happy with what I can do,\u201d Tyson said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul defeated Mike Tyson via a unanimous decision Social media influencer-turned-boxer Jake Paul defeated former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson via unanimous decision in their highly anticipated professional bout on Friday night in Arlington, Texas.
