YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul has left jaws on the floor after showing off his insane transformation ahead of his Mike Tyson showdown. 

Fight fans reckon Jake Paul has put on too much size ahead of his boxing showdown with Mike Tyson.

The YouTube sensation will throw down with the beloved boxing legend in a controversial tussle on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Texas. The fight will be streamed live on Netflix. 


Paul, 27, will be moving up to heavyweight for the first time in his brief boxing career to lock horns with ‘Iron Mike’.

And the former Disney star has undergone a dramatic body transformation for the bout, piling on several pounds of muscle and water weight.

Fight fans got their first glimpse of Paul’s new physique earlier this week, with many impressed by his hulking frame.

Although plenty were quick to express concerns over how ‘The Problem Child’ will carry the additional weight.

One wrote on X: “Lookin beefy jake, I wonder how you gonna move all that?” Another said: “Nahh Jake is not carrying this weight well.

He looks like me RN. He should focus on building lean muscle mass this camp, and then cut to 220/230lbs.”

And another said: “He’s going to gas.”One remarked: “I think the two-minute rounds are for Jake after seeing this.”

Another chimed in: “Better have the cardio to back up that extra weight.” Tyson and Paul stared one another down for the first time since the announcement of their shock showdown.

And Tyson, who will be 31 years Paul’s senior on fight night, didn’t mince his words in the pre-fight press conference.

The former undisputed heavyweight champion said: “I really like Jake a lot. “But once he’s in that ring, he has to fight like his life is depending on it. Because it will be.”

Paul said of his move up in weight: “I’m a natural-born heavyweight. “This is what I was born to do, to move up into this weight class.

“And I’m going to show Mike who has more power. Because he’s underestimating me. “I think everyone else is underestimating me and I believe I hit harder. I know it’s going to be tough.

“I know I’m going to have to fight through adversity. I know I might even go to the canvas. “I’m scared, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not about the fear stopping me.

“It’s about going into it even though I am scared, and that’s what true bravery is.” This article originally appeared on The Sun and was reproduced with permission.
