Boxing Hall of Famer and former undisputed world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson said he doesn't remember his bout with social media influencer Jake Paul, but addressed a viral NSFW moment that took place during the event during an appearance on iHeartRadio's Rich Davis and Steve Covino on the Covino & Rich Show earlier this week.
“Listen, you know what I remember?” Tyson said. Coming back from the first round and then the next thing I remember Jake is doing some kind of, I don’t know; what was he doing?"
"That's the last thing I remember," he added.
Tyson also addressed the incident in which his bare buttocks was shown in the lead up to the fight during the Netflix live broadcast.
"Television has really changed, huh? When that became a big thing that was just ridiculous," Tyson said.
"That's not important," Tyson said when asked if he thought it was going to be as big of a deal as it was. "Look, I've been that way my whole career, my butt's been showing because of a picture of it."
Paul, 27, scored 80-72, 79-73, 79-73, over Tyson, 58, whose last official match came in a loss to Kevin McBride in 2005, during the highly-anticipated event at AT&T Stadium. Tyson, 58, the youngest boxer to ever win a heavyweight title and one of the most dominant ever in the weight class, went 50-6-2 (44 KO) in 58 career professional fights prior to Friday's loss.
