But the WBC heavyweight world champion has struck up a surprise friendship with the 6-0 YouTuber-turned boxer.
He even gatecrashed one of Paul’s interview and faked a punch – before giving the American a hug.
And after the two took a picture together, Tyson, 34, said: “I’m going to post that now and Tommy’s going to go mad!”
And Paul claimed the pair are best friend for life after posing with Tyson and his two sons.
He said: “I already said, we’re BFFLs.”
Tommy, 23, is finally set to get Jake, 26, in the ring having pulled out twice before amid injury and US visa issues.
And the pair of celebrity boxing rivals faced off for the first time last weekend at Wembley Arena.
Tyson was ringside and warned Paul to his face of the consequences for whoever loses the celebrity boxing bout.
He said: “The two guys are putting it on. They’re both undefeated and whoever loses is pretty much f****d, I think.
“There’s not a lot to say. It’s like me, when you speak a lot of s*** you have to back it up and that’s it.
“I’ve been doing these for years, 30-odd times in a row and now it’s time for the big boys to do it. I’m excited, I’m really excited.”

Punching Techniques
There are seven types. Each punch has its own technique. Some punches require more strength than others. An example of this is an uppercut, which requires tremendous force. However, a straight punch is much more powerful and faster than other punches.
There are also different combinations. These are combinations made up of several punches that can be used together to achieve one goal. One combination can have many parts. For example, a combination of a left and right hook will result in damage to the opponent’s jaw.
Guard Techniques
A boxer protects himself by using his body. He uses his arms, legs, elbows, knees, knees, and feet to do this.
Legs
A boxer must use his legs to defend against kicks. When he’s hit, he raises his right leg and runs away from the attacker. To avoid being kicked in the side, he bends down if the attacker attacks from the front. However, if the attack comes from behind, he stands up straight and blocks the kick with his foot.
Elbows
Because they cause great pain, elbow strikes are extremely effective. You can either deliver an elbow strike directly, or indirectly. Directly means you hit your opponent directly with your forearm. While indirectly, it means you hit him with another section of your arm.
Hands
Boxers use the power of their hands to block any incoming blows. They raise their fists high above their heads and point them in the direction of an attack. Then they make contact with the attacker’s fist.
Knees
Boxers should bend their knees when receiving blows to the abdomen, stomach, or chest. Knee strikes can be used to defend yourself.
Feet
Boxers should respond to being attacked by their opponent by standing back and delivering counter-attacks. This allows him to put distance between himself, his opponent, and the ring. In addition, when delivering a counter-attack, a boxer should keep his balance.
Stances
A boxer must have a stance in order to be effective at boxing. The way he defends himself will be determined by his stance. It determines his position and the direction he will face. There are many positions that boxers can adopt. These are the most popular:
- Low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Moving your body
Boxers must maneuver around their opponent to win fights. This involves changing positions, speed, rhythm and timing.
Rotation
To increase his punching power, a boxer rotates when he throws a punch. Depending on what punch is being thrown, the speed of rotation varies.
Combinations
The timing of each punch will determine the effectiveness and efficiency of a combination. A combination that works well starts with strong punches and ends with weak ones is a winning combination.
Sparring
Sparring is a form of boxing that aims to improve your skills. Boxers learn to train their mind and bodies during sparring sessions. The goal of sparring is to learn to fight, and not to get hurt.
In conclusion, learning to box requires dedication and patience. To become a better boxer, you must train hard and for a long time.
