The highly anticipated fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul finally took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Friday night. Fans around the world were eagerly waiting for this showdown, which was originally scheduled for July but was rescheduled to November due to a medical issue for Tyson. Despite the delay, the excitement only grew leading up to the fight.
Many stars from various industries showed up to witness the event. The legendary three-time world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis was present to see Tyson’s return to the ring. Another boxing icon, Sugar Ray Leonard, even predicted a victory for Tyson. It was great to see these legends come together for such a significant fight.
Singer Joe Jonas and comedian Mike Epps were among the celebrities spotted in the crowd, with Epps openly rooting for Tyson. The pink soldiers from the popular show Squid Game also secured prime seats, likely due to their Netflix connections. Rapper Daddy Yankee posed for a photo with unified featherweight world champion Amanda Serrano, who was part of the undercard.
As the fight took place at the home of the Dallas Cowboys, it was no surprise that the Cowboys’ cheerleaders made an appearance. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and Hall of Famer Michael Irvin were also interviewed during the broadcast on Netflix. The star-studded attendance didn’t stop there, with comedian Jeff Ross, actors Simu Liu, Josh Duhamel, and Ralph Macchio (along with his Cobra Kai collaborators) in the audience.
