Jake Paul is heading close to the biggest fight of his career. Amid the buzz for his clash with the former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva, a storyline about Paul vs. the former two-time heavyweight champion legend Mike Tyson’s fight captured fans’ attention.

Fans poured in their opinions when this fake video appeared on the internet.

How did fans react to a possible Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight?

A fan wrote, “Tyson throws one punch. Half connects. Paul is out cold.”

Notably, ‘The Baddest Man on Planet’ has earlier shown an interest in locking horns with the social media star earlier. On Jimmy Kimmel’s show, he said it would be an interesting contest.

“Round one all over Mike never even got a Sweat on”, another fan wrote.

Another fan wrote, “All Jake is doing making fast money but not on my money ,I’m a Big fan of Mike I hope he KO him quick.”

There is no doubt Tyson’s in-ring IQ stands far ahead of Paul’s boxing skills. But his age and an ailing health condition could not be ignored.

Another fan wrote, “no disrespect to Jake Paul Mike Tyson would eat your lunch back in the day buddy.”

“This fight would sell. Mike Tyson has nothing to lose he’s 56. Having said that Tyson would mash him”, another fan wrote.

“If Tyson trains and is 1/4 of what he was at his worst he still ko’s Jake. Jake has hands, good head and body movement, but not good enough”, another fan mentioned.

Another fan wrote,

“Mike says he loves them and he’s a good friend but once they step inside the ring I think all bets are off.”

If such a contest were to take place, it sure would be an entertaining prospect. But that’s all it will be limited to, as although Tyson can still pack a punch, his age will restrict him going all out for the given rounds. And Paul would still find it difficult to touch Tyson, even at this age, because of his unmatched head movement.
