Jake Paul is a man that thrives off attention, whether that be positive or negative.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer faces the biggest test of his professional boxing career tonight as he takes on Mike Tyson.
This will be Paul’s 12th professional fight and he will be looking to make it five wins in a row whilst ‘Iron Mike’ will be returning to the ring for the first time in four years and competing in his first professional bout since 2005.
There has been plenty of tension in the build up to the contest and on the eve of the fight, Tyson slapped Jake Paul around the face.
As the two arrived for the fight, both entered the arena to very different receptions.
Jake Paul booed by fans as Mike Tyson given hero’s welcome
Paul has promised to turn up in style for the fight, but as he arrived to prepare for the biggest night of his life, it was a reception he was probably expecting.
After stepping out of the car and appearing on the big screen the 27-year-old, who was donning a blue suit, was audibly booed by large sections of the stadium in Texas.
He will be hoping for a better reception later in the night after Paul revealed that he had spent $1m on his ring walk outfit.
Moments later it was Tyson’s turn to arrive on the big screen and unlike his opponent, was greeted with huge cheers from everyone.
It’s fair to say we know who everyone is rooting for.
Fans troll Jake Paul outside AT&T Stadium before Tyson showdown
It wasn’t just inside the stadium that the fans let their opinion of Paul be known as some other supporters decided to take it one step earlier.
Parked outside of the AT&T Stadium was a truck with a screen which read: “He’s 58. Jake Paul, shame on you”.
The ‘Problem Child’ has been criticized for choosing to fight an ageing Tyson. One of those who called him out was former welterweight Tony Bellew, who labelled the security as ‘absolute cowards’ after they removed him from the Paul vs Tyson press conference when proposing that the 27-year-old fight the self-proclaimed ‘champion of the care homes’.
