Jake Paul Joins Jesse Watters To Promise A Mike Tyson Boxing Defeat
Jake Paul feels confident about his upcoming boxing match against "Iron" Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium.
Streamed live on Netflix on July 20, the marquee fight between Paul and Tyson is expected to crush ratings as the YouTube influencer braces to embarrass the 57-year-old boxing legend.
People are bound to tune in — whether to catch a major upset or watch Jake Paul (9-1) get pummeled by the former heavyweight champ.
Does Jake Paul have what it takes to beat Tyson?
Fox News host Jesse Watters welcomed Jake Paul for an interview Wednesday, a week after Tyson appeared on "Hannity" to taunt Paul.
The 27-year-old gave his respects to the great Tyson (50-6, 44 KOs) but gave his promise that he'll be the winner on July 20.

"I think he's underestimating me," Paul told Watters. "I truly think that. It's a heavyweight fight; he's the bigger man, but I'm the faster man. He's stronger, but I'm fresh."
"He looks like a beast," Paul continued, "He's a 'dawg, he's 'Iron' Mike Tyson, but I believe I have what it takes to beat him.
"I know this is the toughest test of my life. I know it's an honor to be there with Mike Tyson, but at the end of the day, I'll be the one whose hand is raised."
Earlier Wednesday, former President Trump made the rounds online for making a splash at a Chick-fil-A in Atlanta. The people went crazy for Trump, and Jake Paul also sounds like a fan.
Regarding the heavyweight matchup, Jake Paul said he'd join Trump at Chick-fil-A, trying to bulk up to swallow any big swings from Tyson.
"I know it's gonna be tough. I know he's be getting inside. I'm probably gonna be at Chick-Fil-A with Mr. Trump trying to gain weight for this fight. But I believe I have the faster feet and the faster hands. I know Mike has the game plan but I'm still gonna win," Paul added.
Paul was asked what his reaction would be if Tyson tried biting off his ear, calling back to Evander Holyfield in '97.
"He can't bite my ear off if I knock his teeth out."
Jesse Watters then questioned Paul about what a Trump versus Biden fight in the ring would look like.
Paul agrees with the average American.
"Trump wouldn't even have to punch him. Biden would fall over from the wind."
