Jake Paul’s mum issued a fierce warning to Mike Tyson before launching a foul-mouthed tirade at the legendary boxer.

It came after Tyson and Paul went head-to-head for the final time on Thursday night ahead of the much-anticipated fight scheduled for around 4am UK time on Saturday morning.

And it did not take long for the pair to clash at Thursday night’s weigh-in ahead of the big fight with Tyson striking Paul with a huge slap across his face.

Reacting to the slap, Paul said: “I didn’t even feel it. He’s angry. He’s an angry little elf.

“Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap, buddy, but tomorrow you’re getting knocked out.”

However, Paul’s Mum Pam Stepnick did not mince her words after watching Tyson put his hands on her son, calling him a ‘b****’.

And she wasn’t finished yet. Later on in the night Paul was spotted enjoying an embrace with his mum before she again let loose on the two-time heavyweight champion.

“I’m going to kill Mike Tyson for you… f****** little b****,” she told Paul which drew a giggle out of the YouTube star turned boxer.

Paul replied: “You slap harder than him.”

Tyson later claimed he slapped Paul after the social media star stepped on his foot as they were facing off.

“I was in my socks and he had on shoes,” Tyson explained.

“I wanted to think it happened by accident. But now I think it may have happened on purpose. I was in a lot of pain so I had to reciprocate.”

The 58-year-old will have his opportunity to go full throttle at Paul over eight rounds with each round lasting two minutes at AT&T Stadium, home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys.

Paul boasts an impressive record of 11 wins from his 12 professional fights so far with the only blemish on his record coming in a split-decision defeat to Tommy Fury last year.

His last fight came in July when he stopped MMA star Mike Perry in the sixth round.

Ahead of Saturday morning’s huge showdown, Tyson weighed-in at 16st 4lbs while Paul measured at a pound lighter at 16st 3lbs.
