In a surprising twist, boxing legend Mike Tyson stole the spotlight in a pre-fight interview for Jake Paul’s highly anticipated upcoming match. The iconic fighter—known for his knockout power and larger-than-life personality—unexpectedly showed off a side of himself that fans didn’t see coming: his sense of humor and, quite literally, his butt.
During an exclusive Netflix interview, Tyson was asked about his thoughts on Jake Paul’s training and fighting style. As the conversation took a lighthearted turn, the interviewer brought up an old photo from Tyson’s past—one featuring the boxer in a bold pose, showing off his back tattoo and, unintentionally, his backside.
Without missing a beat, Tyson laughed and said, “Yeah, that’s my butt! What, you’ve never seen a heavyweight champ’s behind before?” The crowd burst into laughter, and social media quickly caught fire with the clip.
Fans React on Social Media
Within minutes of the interview going live, “Mike Tyson’s Butt” began trending on X (formerly Twitter). Memes, GIFs, and even fan art of the legendary boxer’s viral moment flooded social media platforms. One user joked, “Mike Tyson is out here dropping ‘cheeky’ previews of his next Netflix documentary!” Another added, “Who needs Jake Paul’s fight when Tyson’s already stealing the show?”
The buzz even reached Jake Paul himself, who responded with a playful jab: “If I win this fight, I’m making my own Netflix doc—shirtless, pantsless, whatever it takes.”
Netflix’s Strategy Pays Off
This viral moment seems to be part of Netflix’s larger promotional campaign for its upcoming docuseries about Tyson, set to delve deep into his personal life, career highs and lows, and untold stories. The unexpected humor and candidness of this interview have already piqued audience interest, promising high viewership for the series.
While Jake Paul’s match is certainly creating waves, Tyson has proven once again why he’s an unforgettable figure in the sports and entertainment world. Whether he’s knocking out opponents in the ring or cracking jokes in interviews, Iron Mike knows how to captivate an audience.
As for fans? They’ll undoubtedly be tuning in—not just for the fight, but for more unexpected Tyson moments that keep us all on our toes. Or, in this case, cheeks.
