Among the 72,000-plus crowd at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington Texas on Friday night were a host of celebrities who watched the battle of generations between former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and Jake Paul.

The star-studded heavyweight boxing mega event saw Paul defeat Tyson by unanimous decision but they were not the only two big names in the stadium.

This marked Tyson's first sanctioned contest since 2005 following his exhibition match against Roy Jones in 2020. Paul's boxing career spans approximately four years.

The event originally scheduled for July 20 was delayed due to Tyson's hospitalisation for a stomach ulcer after becoming unwell during a flight.
