Mike Tyson Fury's antics at the weigh-in: obscene gesture, booed... and the reason he slapped Jake Paul

Mike Tyson's attitude marked the weigh-in before the fight between the legendary boxer and Jake Paul. The two faced each other for the last time before going head-to-head. However, the weigh-in was marked by the attitude of a Mike Tyson who left the stage booed after starring in several striking moments.

The first, just to appear to be weighed. Tyson took off his jacket, stripped down to his underpants and decided to make an obscene gesture in front of the audience and the cameras. The start of the American's show. Then the boxer stood in front of Jake Paul and, without a word, slapped him in the face, which ended up being the image of the weigh-in.
