Here’s what Talk Sport reported:

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul got physical at their New York press conference.

The pair kicked off their press tour at the Jacob Javits Center ahead of their rescheduled November 15 date.

They were initially slated to duke it out on July 20, however, Tyson was forced out of the contest after suffering an ulcer flare-up on a flight to Los Angeles.

Tyson’s representatives claimed ‘Iron Mike’ had made a full recovery but further inspections from doctors deemed him medically unfit to compete this summer.

It was a very pro-Tyson crowd in New York with a cacophony of boos echoing around the arena when Paul made his way to the stage, while the former undisputed heavyweight champion was given a hero’s welcome.

At one point, a ‘F*** Jake Paul’ chant started in the fan zone, prompting an angry response from ‘The Problem Child’.

“Hey New York, shut the f*** up New York,” he shouted. “Boo yourselves New York.

“Hey New York you’re just like Mike Tyson, you were good 20 years ago.
