A news conference between a disinterested Mike Tyson and an agitated Jake Paul ended with a cordial face-off.
Mike Tyson spoke just a few words, Jake Paul made crude references and Briton Tony Bellew was escorted out of the arena by security at a baffling news conference in Texas.
Paul tried to goad Tyson by asking him about comments made in a documentary where the former champion described himself as "natural born killer".Perhaps the most bizarre moment at Wednesday's event at the Toyota Music Factory in Irving came when Liverpool's Bellew inaudibly shouted into a microphone – which he had brought along - from the press area.
The pair – who will compete for the undisputed title in the chief support - conducted themselves appropriately to build up to the richest fight in female boxing.Paul wore a diamond stud cover on his ear, in reference to Tyson biting Evander Holyfield in their heavyweight title fight in 1997
