Tyson ended his nearly two-decade retirement to face the YouTuber-turned-fighter in a match that drew a lot of attention. The bout lasted eight two-minute rounds, with Paul winning by unanimous decision. Tyson, who's close to 60 years old, struggled after the first minute.
The event broke several viewership records, despite initial health concerns that had postponed the contest.
After the fight, there was talk about Tyson possibly facing Jake's brother, Logan. But Tyson's family quickly put out a statement saying he was done for good.
Now, half a year later, Tyson himself has confirmed his retirement. In a recent interview with Men's Health, he said:
"The only person I'm fighting now is my accountant. Other than that, I'm just living life and I'm doing good right now."
Many fans will welcome this news. A lot of people felt uncomfortable seeing Tyson return to the ring at his age.
As for Jake Paul, he's moving forward with his boxing career. He's got a record of 11 wins and 1 loss, with many victories over former UFC fighters. His only defeat came against Tommy Fury, the half-brother of two-time heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
Paul plans to announce his next fight soon. He's tried to set up a rematch with Tommy Fury and has even talked about fighting Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Gervonta Davis. But those talks didn't go anywhere. He might end up choosing a less well-known opponent for his next bout.
Paul's long-term goal? He wants to become a legitimate world champion. We'll have to wait and see if he can make that happen.
