Jake Paul sparks confusion with bizarre training video ahead of Mike Tyson fight with friends screaming

He's largely fought against former MMA fighters with wins over Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz.

His only defeat came against British cruiserweight Tommy Fury in 2023, but has won his last four fights.

However, Paul is set for a completely different test in less than two months when he's set to step into the ring with former undisputed heavyweight world champion Tyson.

The fight has garnered plenty of criticism due to the 31-year age gap between the two of them.

The original date for the fight was pushed back after Tyson suffered a health scare on a plane earlier this summer.

But the fight, which will be held at the AT&T Stadium in Texas, looks set to go ahead on November 15 with both putting the finishing touches to their preparations.

Tyson has revealed that he's putting in the work every day with six-hour gym sessions to stay in top shape.

Paul has slowed down on posting his boxing workouts since his last fight in July, instead putting up either promotional content or prank videos.

It appeared as though Paul had returned to posting clips of his workout routine with a video starting with him sat on a bench press machine with a group of people behind him.

"Strongest boxer in existence," the caption read, as Paul stated he was attempting a new personal record of benching 500lbs (226kg).

But not all was what it seemed as Paul appeared to be weight a fat suit belly with the weights also looking fake.

The group of friends behind Paul were screaming in the background as Paul lifted the weight.

Another asked: "What happened to ur belly bro?"
