YouTuber Logan Paul makes savage claim to Mike Tyson live on Netflix stream
The Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight last Friday was nothing short of underwhelming.
Even before the YouTube-turned-boxer and professional boxer entered the ring, there were complaints that the fight wasn't as fair as it should have been.
Although that didn't stop a select few people from spending a whopping $2 million to watch the match in person and receive some VIP goodies as part of their experience.
According to the BBC, over 60 million households worldwide tuned in to watch Paul's victory. However, the aftermath saw many claims that the fight was scripted, mostly as Tyson didn't throw many punches and nothing about it seemed legit, controversial rule changes, and the fact that the fight was fixed in Paul's favour.

After the fight, the legendary heavyweight was asked if he was 'officially done' with boxing.
Netflix host Ariel Helwani asked Tyson in the ring: "Do you want to do this again or are you officially done now?"
He replied: "I don't know. It depends on the situation."
When asked who comes to mind, he called out to Jake's brother, Logan Paul. With a cheeky smile, he said: "Well I don't know, maybe his brother."
Logan initially showed confusion but then smugly replied with: "F*** I'd kill you, Mike."
However, Tyson later clarified on X (formerly Twitter) that Friday night was likely his last time in the ring.
His post read: "This is one of those situations when you lost but still won. I’m grateful for last night.
"No regrets to get in ring one last time. I almost died in June. Had eight blood transfusions."
Concerns about Tyson's health were brushed aside as organisers assured he would be fit to fight on November 15, despite several delays leading up to the match.
Paul was heavily criticised for taking on an opponent 31 years older than him, marking the biggest age gap in a professional boxing match.
Tyson’s coach Rafael Cordeiro defended the fight, sharing that Tyson had trained for seven months and believed he could still win.
He said: "We worked for seven months for this moment. I truly believed we had this victory before the fight.
"He never asked to give up. We are really proud of Mike, the way he trained for seven months, he put his life aside for training. He's the people's champ. He's inspired many people outside of the ring. The most important thing that Mike is going back home to his loved ones."
People are outrage by Logan's response.
"Logan couldve shut his mouth. Was pretty uneeded disrespect there in front of tyson and the whole crowd," the first user responded.
"It’s sad that Mike was joking around then Logan says that and he slowly stops smiling," added a second user.
"Talking to a legend like that is insane," a third wrote on YouTube.
