**Arlington, USA** – Boxing legend Mike Tyson suffered a unanimous decision loss to Jake Paul in a highly anticipated eight-round heavyweight bout at AT&T Stadium on Saturday. While Tyson dominated the first two rounds, Paul rallied, ultimately winning with a score of 74-78. The fight marked Tyson’s return to professional boxing after nearly 20 years and his seventh career loss. The 58-year-old Tyson showed resilience but couldn’t overcome the 30-year age gap and Paul’s strategic fighting. Tyson reportedly earned $20 million for the fight, while Paul earned $40 million.
The fight saw Tyson secure the first two rounds, but Paul’s solid punches in the third and subsequent rounds shifted the momentum decisively. A powerful overhand punch in the fifth round significantly impacted Tyson’s performance. Paul went on to win the remaining rounds.
Tyson, who achieved heavyweight champion status at the age of 20 in 1987, boasts a previous record of 50 wins (44 knockouts) and 6 losses. Paul, a 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-professional boxer, now holds an 11-1 professional boxing record.
The undercard featured an impressive victory for India’s Neeraj Goyat, who defeated Winderson Nunes of Brazil in a six-round super middleweight bout (60-54). Goyat, a former WBC Asian champion, continues to make a name for himself in the professional boxing scene.
Tyson’s career, marked by both phenomenal success and considerable controversy, including a rape conviction and an infamous ear-biting incident, continues to captivate the world. This comeback fight, despite the loss, underscored his enduring legacy in the sport.
