Jake Paul defeated Mike Tyson by unanimous decision on Friday night in Texas.
The anti-Paul crowd, and especially the pro-Tyson crowd, has been in a frenzy since Amanda Serrano got robbed against Katie Taylor in the previous fight.
Paul came out to Phil Collins’ “In The Air Tonight,” pulling Tyson’s appearance from “The Hangover.” Meanwhile, Tyson’s hit music roused the entire crowd.

Paul just leaned on Tyson, which earned him a lot of boos – it was a good idea, as Tyson was getting his shot early. But Paul clearly held his own in the first round.
Paul connected with a left in the third, and Tyson began to show his age. From that moment on, the uproar seemed intense, even the crowds could not control themselves, many headed for the exit before the announcement of the results.
AT&T Stadium has tried desperately to support Tyson every time he comes to anything, but to no avail. Paul bowed to Tyson before the final bell, and the two shared a long hug.
