Jake Paul dropped 200k on a pair of diamond-spiked ear covers to troll Mike Tyson.
27 years ago, Tyson notoriously bit Evander Holyfield on both of his ears during their rematch on June 28, 1997. Tyson was disqualified following the end of the third round and the incident went on to become one of the most controversial moments in sports history.
Nearly three decades later, ‘The Problem Child’ used the infamous incident to take a dig at Tyson during their final press conference before stepping inside the ring on Friday night.
“I’m not getting my sh*t bit off on Friday night,” Paul told Tyson before showing off his expensive jewelry from VOBARA. “So I got my diamond-spiked ear covers right there.”
Paul probably didn’t have to drop six-figures to make a joke about something that happened when he was only six months old, but doing anything on a reasonable scale just isn’t his style.
