Mike Tyson was beaten by Jake Paul in their fight at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the former YouTuber winning the unanimous verdict by two scores of 79-73 and one of 80-72. Tyson, who has struggled with his mental and physical health since his heyday in the 1980s, looked a shadow of his former self as he fought for eight rounds wearing a knee brace. ‘I didn’t prove nothing to anybody, only to myself,’ Tyson said after the fight. When asked about his injury, Tyson said: ‘I can’t use that for an excuse, if I did I wouldn’t be in here.’
