In the video, Paul can be seen lifting Tyson onto his shoulders, sparking applause and cheers from the crowd. The YouTuber-turned-boxer captioned the post with "Best friends," showcasing their strong camaraderie.

The fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson took place last November. Tyson made his return to the ring after nearly a 20-year hiatus but struggled to match the energy of his younger opponent. Paul claimed a decisive victory in the bout.

The nature of the fight led to speculation from some fans that it may have been staged or scripted, though no evidence has been presented to support these claims.

The inauguration of Donald Trump, where the two stars reunited, occurred on January 20, 2025. Trump officially assumed the presidency, succeeding Joe Biden.
