Paul celebrated with UFC fighter Sean O’Malley after the unanimous decision victory.
Jake Paul celebrated his controversial win over Mike Tyson by lifting a custom-made "most valuable" belt, which has sparked plenty of reaction on social media.Tyson started the contest strongly, winning the opening two rounds but he inevitably tired in the latter stages. In fact,As you can see from the footage below, Paul was then crowned "the most valuable heavyweight champion in the world" by one of his entourage, who handed over a custom-made MVP belt.
After a reporter asked if he started to take his foot off the gas, Paul replied: "Yeah definitely, definitely a bit. You know, I wanted to give the fans a show but I didn't wanna hurt someone that didn't need to be hurt."He added: "There was a point where I was like he is not really engaging back. So I don't know if he is tired. I can just tell his age was showing a little bit.
"I just have so much respect for him and that war thing between us after he slapped me, I wanted to be aggressive, take him down and knock him out. But that kind of went away as the rounds went on."
