The back-and-forth between Jake Paul and legendary heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson is starting to gather pace ahead of their highly anticipated bout on July 20.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer trolled Tyson on social media by reminding him of the infamous ear bite in 1997 against Evander Holyfield.
Paul posted a video on social media showing his face with Tyson's iconic face tattoo. He then showed a man with a bitten ear, then showed himself again, with a fake ear in his mouth.
That post will likely anger Tyson because it is one of the most infamous moments in boxing history. It wasn't Tyson's greatest moment, though. Paul also recreated Tyson's famous picture with a pet tiger.
