American Mike Tyson was able to go the full distance against compatriot Jake Paul, but his work on the feet left a lot to be desired, the former outright light heavyweight world champion told Roy Jones Jr. have Russian nationality.
On Friday, Tyson, 58, lost to Paul, 27, in an eight-round boxing match by unanimous decision. The fight took place in Arlington (USA). It was previously reported that Paul’s fee would be $40 million and Tyson’s would be $20 million.
— Tyson’s legs weren’t working properly. I’m not sure what happened, maybe something was wrong with the knee, but my footwork left a lot to be desired. Otherwise it wasn’t bad, he lasted eight rounds at 58. But with such stages it was difficult to win,” Roy Jones told .
Tyson had his last official fight before the fight with Paul in 2005. In total, the ex-champion’s record includes 50 victories (44 by knockout) and seven defeats. The 27-year-old Paul’s boxing statistics are 11 wins (7 by knockout) and one loss.
