Tonight, we anticipate the bout between the famous YouTuber Jake Paul and former UFC star Mike Perry. Yesterday, we reported that Paul only succeeded in making the heavyweight limit on his second attempt during the weigh-in procedure.

Following this, the fighters faced another traditional event – the staredown, which also did not go smoothly.

The boxers appeared on stage, glaring at each other for an extended period, exchanging a plethora of insults. Perry then shoved Paul, but the YouTuber retaliated with a much stronger push. Security immediately intervened, surrounding the fighters, and while Perry tried to get to Paul, Paul addressed the audience.

After the incident, Paul called Perry lightweight. His words were quoted by the Daily Mail:

"He's lightweight. He flew about six feet."

Initially, Paul was supposed to fight Mike Tyson, but due to the veteran boxer's health issues, their bout was postponed to October.
