Mike Tyson and Jake Paul recently participated in a press conference ahead of their highly anticipated boxing match on July 20. During the presser, both men faced a particularly outlandish question from a young fan, who asked them about their “body count” so far.
Tyson and Paul are set to face each other in the squared circle for a boxing match recently sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations as a professional fight. The bout will have eight two-minute rounds, and the fighters will have 14-ounce gloves on. The Paul-Tyson match will go down at the AT&T Stadium in Texas and will stream live on Netflix.

During the pre-fight press conference, Mike Tyson and Paul were confronted by a young fan who wanted to know who would train him better. After receiving contrasting answers from both men, the boy quickly asked them: “Who do you think has got a higher body count?” While Paul was noticeably taken by surprise at the youngster’s question, Tyson promptly jumped in to redeem the situation. ‘Iron Mike’ jokingly asked: “Where’s this kid’s mother?”.
