Boxing legend Mike Tyson shocked viewers during a live TV interview ahead of his much-hyped bout with YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. The unexpected viral moment occurred when Tyson turned to walk away after predicting a "vicious win" in the fight, revealing his bare butt as his jock strap shifted.
 


The incident quickly gained traction on social media, with fans sharing their disbelief. One user on X quipped, “Did I just see Mike Tyson’s bare ass on my screen?” Another joked, “Netflix caught me off guard with Mike Tyson’s cheeks out of nowhere!”

The wardrobe mishap is just the latest headline-grabbing moment for Tyson during fight week. At the weigh-in on Thursday, he slapped Paul after the latter provocatively stepped on his foot. Tyson later described Paul as a “f*ing ahole,” accusing him of doing it intentionally.

 


Despite the drama, Tyson remains confident in his performance, while Paul brushed off the slap, claiming he “didn’t even feel it.”

The fight, streamed live on Netflix, is one of the most talked-about events in boxing, combining the sport’s legends with its modern-day influencers.
