		</div><p>YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has screamed some fighting words into the microphone moments after his ceremonial weigh-in with Mike Tyson, moments after he was slapped across the face by the former world heavyweight champion.</p>
<p>Paul and Tyson both weighed in on Thursday at the Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas, with the two giving viewers a sneak peek of what is to come when they meet in the ring on Friday.</p>

As Tyson strode across the stage, a clearly eager Paul, 27, popped up in front of the 58-year-old, earning the YouTouber-turned-boxer a slap across the face.</p>

The crowd in attendance gasped while Tyson had to be held back.</p>
<p>Paul, however, seemed unfazed. Instead, he blew kisses at the former champion.</p>
<p>“Talking’s over,” Tyson said, before exiting with his entourage.</p>
<p>In the moments after the slap, Paul said: “I didn’t even feel it.</p>
<p>“He’s angry. He’s an angry little elf.”</p>
<p>He added: “Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap.”</p>

<p>The 27-year-old then launched into a series of expletive-laden remarks, promising to end Iron Mike in the upcoming fight.</p>
<p>“It’s personal now,” Paul added, before bellowing into the microphone: “He must die.”</p>
<p>Former world heavyweight champion Tyson (50-6, 44KOs) will step back into the ring for his first professional bout in 19 years at AT&#038;T Stadium in the bout, which will be streamed on Netflix.</p>
<p>Tyson took part in an exhibition with Roy Jones Jr in 2020 but will be up against an opponent 31 years his junior on Friday.</p>
<p>Given the considerable age gap between the fighters, Paul has been installed as the favourite.</p>
<p>Tyson weighed in at 227.2 pounds (103kg), while Paul tipped the scales at 228.4 pounds (103.6kg).</p>
