Jake Paul defeats Tyson in round eight

YouTuber-turned-boxer, Jake Paul, has defeated former heavyweight boxer, Mike Tyson, on Saturday in their highly-anticipated boxing showdown.

The keenly contested fight, which was held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, is part of a Netflix extravaganza expected to draw millions of viewers worldwide.

58-year-old Tyson struggled against 27-year-old Paul in most rounds of the fight as direct punches landed on his chin giving the YouTuber-turned-boxer the upper hand in the bout.

The fight was only decided in the last round as Tyson stood his ground despite attempts by Paul to knock him out.
