Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and Youtube star-turned-boxer Jake Paul went head-to-head in a massively hyped streamed event on Netflix. The event left some viewers at home frustrated by streaming issues on Netflix. NBC’s Marissa Parra reports for TODAY.
Jake Paul had the support of his girlfriend, Olympian Jutta Leerdam, at his fight against Mike Tyson. The 27-year-old social media influencer and the legendary heavyweight boxer faced off in Arlington, Texas on Nov. 15, with the start-studded event livestreamed on Netflix. Paul had the support of his family at the event, including his brother, Logan Paul, as well as his girlfriend.
“And I was like ‘Okay, let’s do it. Can be good, can be nice.’” Paul said that he started to flirt with Leerdam, but she “wasn’t really into it” initially. The influencer explained that his girlfriend thought he was “weird at first” until she started to understand his sense of humor. “In the beginning when he hit me up online, I was like, ‘No, you look like this arrogant d-------g that thinks he can just get whatever he wants. Well, not me,” Leerdam explained.
