“I’m like, whoa! He just slapped her! But I have to keep this smile on my head the whole time, I’m like, ‘No way, but keep smiling back here!’ That was my thought process.

“Many people also drew a line [and] he said, ‘This has to be arranged. There is no way that is true. The background models did not react.’ They were saying that it was on us that made it look fake, because we did not react. That’s our whole job. We got paid to stand there and smile. We are experts at it. We will not have this reaction. It was shocking, but that’s our job.”

MVP ripped apart any notion that the fight was rigged in any way.

“If you were to rig a competition like that, it’s a federal crime. And me, Jake Paul, Mike Tyson, the Netflix executives are all going to be arrested. They’re going to be putting their company at risk, and we’re going to be putting our lives at risk to do that,” Bidarian told Fox News Digital. last week. “It’s delusional for people to even suggest that this was anything other than a professional fight. … It wasn’t like that in any of Jake’s fights, let alone this one.”
