Mike Tyson LOSES IT on a Reporter: “What did you CALL ME?” • Jake Paul PRESS CONFERENCE | HO
‘What did you call me?’ – Mike Tyson reacts furiously and snaps at reporter after being labelled ’58-year-old gimmick’
Mike Tyson scared the life out of a reporter at his most recent press conference with Jake Paul.
On Thursday, Paul and Tyson came together for the second time this week in Arlington, Texas as part of a press tour to promote their fight at AT&T Stadium on July 20.

‘The Problem Child’ repeatedly talked about becoming world champion and fighting Canelo Alvarez before agreeing to box Tyson, who will be 58-years-old when he steps in the ring this summer.
A reporter tried to call him out for saying one thing and doing another, but it backfired as Paul deflected the question and riled up ‘Iron Mike’ in the process.
“Jake, you say you wanna be a serious boxer and you wanna be a contender and you wanna be a titleholder,” the reporter began.
“When in your career are you actually going to fight a contender in your weight class and not do gimmick fights?”
Paul replied: “I think he just called Mike Tyson a gimmick?”
The reporter tried to clarify his phrasing without disrespecting one of the greatest legends in heavyweight boxing history.
He added: “Mike Tyson is 58-years-old or will be at the time of the fight, yes. As much as I respect Mike Tyson…”
Tyson didn’t take kindly to being dismissed ahead of his first professional fight since being stopped by Kevin McBride in 2005.

He repeatedly asked: “What did you just call me?”
Tyson aimed a scary stare at the reporter, who quickly backtracked when confronted about calling the prolific knockout artist a ’58-year-old gimmick’.
“I didn’t call you anything,” the reporter said in a panicked voice.
A bit of mean mugging from Tyson was enough to de-escalate the situation, which is likely to occur again before he steps into the ring with Paul in a couple of months.
Many people are concerned for Tyson’s well-being in his first fight in almost two decades, but he promises to roll back the years by stopping Paul.
“I started Jake off and I’m gonna finish him,” Tyson said.
“He’s not going to win. He can’t even knock out Nate [Diaz] who is like 40 pounds.
“How’s he going to knock me out? Who’s the other guy? Anderson Silva…. He didn’t knock out Tommy Fury. He didn’t knock those little guys out, [how’s he going to] knock me out?…
“Who did he knock out? Little children… [he] never knocked out a real man.”
Paul has youth on his side when he faces the former world champion
