Jake Paul won an intergenerational heavyweight bout on Friday night, defeating boxing icon Mike Tyson by unanimous decision. In front of a sold-out crowd at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the battle between the 58-year-old former heavyweight champion and the 27-year-old social media influencer-turned-prizefighter was aired live on Netflix. Tyson's age and inability to produce any attack against his younger opponent, hitting only 18 blows to Paul's 78, left fans generally unsatisfied. During his peak in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Tyson was one of the most formidable heavyweight champions of all time. This was his first professional bout in almost two decades. Paul described being proclaimed the winner as "an honour."
