‘Disgusting’ – KSI brands Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul ‘elderly abuse’ in scathing post-fight reaction
Jake Paul's fierce rival KSI was 'disgusted' by the YouTuber's fight with Mike Tyson.
Paul and Tyson duked it out in front of 70,000 bewildered fans at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas in what will go down in history as one of the most-watched boxing fights of all time.
Tyson looked every one of his 58 years in the ring as he laboured to a unanimous decision loss while Paul, 27, appeared to be holding back throughout the sad affair.
In the end, the scorecards read 80-72, 79-73 and 79-73 in his favour.
Thankfully, Tyson survived to see the final bell.
Most felt the faded undisputed heavyweight champion was destined to get knocked out before the fight but he wore Paul's shots well and lost over the distance for the first time in his 57-fight pro career.

This comes after KSI wrote on X on the eve of the Netflix showdown: "Jake Paul will knock out Mike Tyson.
