Tyson boxed professionally for twenty years, from 1985 to 2005, and is hailed as one of the greatest heavyweight boxers in history. Meanwhile, Paul began his boxing journey in 2018, spurred by his immense popularity on social media.
Since retiring from professional boxing, Tyson has become known for his appearances in various TV shows and movies, notably starring in the 2009 film The Hangover.
In April 2022, Tyson made headlines for an incident on an airplane. Reports claimed he punched another passenger while flying from San Francisco to Florida. A video obtained by TMZ showed Tyson seemingly throwing punches at a man trying to take selfies with him. The San Francisco Police Department responded to the incident and detained the other passenger.
However, weeks later, the San Mateo District Attorney’s Office announced they wouldn’t press charges against Tyson. They cited “the circumstances surrounding the confrontation,” including the behavior of the other person involved, the interaction between Tyson and the individual, and the wishes of both parties to not pursue charges.
