Mike Tyson Shows Jake Paul What He'll Be Facing In Wild POV Footage

Before any major prize fight in boxing, it’s common for one of the combatants to issue a call out of some kind. Mike Tyson took his call out to a completely different level before his fight with Jake Paul.

The 57-year-old Tyson is training for his July 20th bout with the 27-year-old Paul. This isn’t some minor event either, the two were able to book AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX as the location for the fight and it will be streamed live on Netflix.

Some may think that the former undisputed heavyweight champion has lost his boxing ability with his age. However, Tyson showed the world on social media that Paul is going to have his hands full later this summer.

Tyson posted a video of himself training for the fight on social media. But it wasn’t your standard workout montage paired with some intense music.

Instead, Tyson’s sparring partner placed a camera on his person to video what it was like to withstand punches from the former fighting champion.

In case you were wondering, it’s incredibly intimidating.

Don’t be fooled. Even though he’s nearly 60 years old, Tyson still packs a lot of punch in his, well, punches. Paul certainly is a capable fighter, but I’m sure even he’s a little frightened by what he just saw.

I’m sure Paul has a plan on how to handle his opponents' gameplan. But as Tyson once said, "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." 

We’ll see if Paul can withstand one of those punches.
