'The Problem Child' has made a name for himself in the sport since making his debut in 2020, but arguably faces his toughest test yet in the former heavyweight champion
Former boxing star Butterbean has advised Jake Paul to target Mike Tyson 's chin ahead of their controversial showdown next month.
Tyson's last professional contest came back in 2005 when he was beaten by Kevin McBride. He has fought fairly recently, though with his last bout coming in an exhibition showdown with Roy Jones Jr back in 2020. Since making his debut four years ago, Paul has been very active in the ring. 'The Problem Child' knocked out former UFC fighter and BKFC star Mike Perry back in July in his last fight.
Butterbean, real name Eric Esch, has concerned fans ahead of November's bout after he recently admitted that he was left worried about Tyson's shape after seeing him a few weeks ago. “I saw Mike about three weeks ago, and he looked pregnant,” Butterbean told AL.com. In the same interview, the former professional boxer has told 'The Problem Child' which area to target in order to beat 'Iron Mike.' “I would knock him out. He has no chin," he continued.
While Butterbean has given Paul a huge tip on how to beat the boxing legend, the American has also been vocal about wanting to fight 'The Problem Child.' Earlier this year, Esch took to social media to offer the 27-year-old a £1.5million winner-takes-all scrap. "Hey Jake Paul, would you fight me for $2m ? Winner takes all," he said.
