Mike Tyson just had one of the most bizarre moments ahead of his boxing match with Jake Paul. Following a backstage interview conducted by his son Amir, 'Iron Mike' turned around, revealing a curious pair of shorts that left his buttocks almost completely exposed.
In classic Tyson fashion, he ignored the fact that he flashed the camera or that he even wore questionable attire. Whether intentional or unintentional, the incident has drawn tremendous attention on social media, with notable combat sports figures sharing their thoughts on it.

Former UFC bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling took to X/Twitter to poke fun at the cameraman.
"Someone tell the camera man, wrong set of cheeks bro"
The Full Violence MMA X/Twitter account also found the moment humorous.
"Mike cheeked up backstage"
No reaction, though, was more outlandish than the Anatomy of a Fighter page.
"A** OUT!!!!!!!"
Despite the comical nature of the moment, Tyson seemed as dialed in as he's ever been. He will look to silence his detractors, who have expressed considerable doubt over his ability to compete against a younger foe at his age. However, whether he can turn back the clock one more time is the night's biggest question.
