Mike Tyson watched Jake Paul spar for 30 seconds before walking out.
That’s according to Freddie Roach, legendary boxing trainer and owner of Wild Card Gym in Los Angeles, California.
Roach claims Tyson, ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’, ‘looked at him [Paul] and left’, with seemingly no interest in interacting with the 5-0 YouTube boxer ahead of his Oct. 29 boxing match with former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva.
“He saw 30 seconds of him sparring and said, ‘Freddie, can we go down and see the pictures?’” Roach told FightHype in a recent interview (h/t Martin Domin of The Mirror).
