Top heated moments from the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul press conference

The rivalry between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is heating up as the pair appeared in front of the media and a rowdy crowd for the second press conference for their upcoming bout.

Tyson vs. Paul is set for July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The event will be exclusively streamed on Netflix, marking the platform's first ever live combat sports event.

The pair had appeared respectful of one another following the announcement of the fight, however, that no longer appears to be the case as the heat turned up between them and trash talk starting flying during the latest presser.

As they walked out, Paul was met with a wave of boos from the crowd, which appeared to anger him straight away. In response, Paul said:

"Ayy Dallas, shut the f*ck up! Y'all keep booing, I'll keep doing! Bunch of b*tches!...I hope y'all keep this same energy when I knock this old man the f*ck out." [0:01]

Tyson was later asked about facing a 'prime' Jake Paul, to which he responded:

"I don't know if he's in his prime, he looks fat. He should be lean and mean, he's fat and funky." [1:01]

When asked about Paul's desire for a KO win, Mike Tyson said:

"He couldn't even knockout Nate Diaz, how's he gonna knock me out?" [2:08]

During the question section, a reporter than asked Paul when he will face an actual contender rather than have "gimmick" fights. The question didn't land well for either Paul or Tyson, who responded:

"Jake: I think he just called Tyson a gimmick?" [7:11]

"Tyson: What did you just call me!?" [7:24]

Daniel Cormier offers take on Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul

UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier recently shared his thoughts on the upcoming boxing bout between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul.

The fight received a host of backlash from fans when it was announced, mainly regarding the age difference between the two fighters. When they step into the ring on July 20, Tyson will be 58 years-old, 31 years senior than Paul.

Discussing the bout during a recent interview with MMA Junkie, Cormier echoed the concern of fans, but does believe there are positives to take from it happening. He explained:

"It's a weird deal. But I think it'll be fun. I think if Mike Tyson can fight, and is free to just fight-fight the way he wants to, he's either gonna knock [Jake Paul] out or he's gonna get caught with something that's gonna get him knocked out. But hell, I'm watching it, it'll be fun as long as it lasts."
