Jake Paul reigned supreme over Mike Tyson tonight in what some fans have dubbed as 'the most boring boxing fight in the history of boxing'.

Despite the match going the distance, there was not too much that went on - other than watching a 27-year-old land punch after punch on a 58-year-old.

'The Problem Child' won following a unanimous decision, and from the outside looking in it seemed like Tyson wouldn't be in a hurry to climb back into the ring.

During the post-fight interview, Tyson was asked by a reporter: "Are you surprised it went the distance?"

To which he replied: "No I knew he was a good fighter, I knew he was prepared but I came to fight."

Quizzed again about his age, the reporter said: "You know, 58, a lot of people thought you shouldn't be here a lot of people thought you'd be done and dusted in the first round, do you feel like you proved the world wrong that you could at least go eight rounds with a younger man?"

Tyson stated: "I didn't prove nothing to anybody only to myself I'm not one of those guys that looks to please the world, I'm just happy what I can do."

The former two-time heavyweight champion of the world was then asked could that fight be the last time he enters the ring, but Tyson showed no sign of stopping.

Yes, instead of tasting defeat and bowing out, he's gone all guns blazing and called out Jake's older brother Logan Paul in what was a slightly awkward exchange after losing.

"You got more in you, who crosses the mind?" he was asked.

Tyson replied: "Oh, I don't know. Maybe his brother."

Before epically pointing at Logan.

After calling him out, the co-founder of energy drink Prime replied: "Well f***, I'll kill you Mike."

Tyson and Paul initially planned to box in the summer but just two months before their bout the once undisputed two-time heavyweight champion of the world was forced to pull out due to an 'ulcer flare up'.

Fans forked out as much as $2 million for the spectacle - yes, there were really VIP tickets going for that much and all the tickets sold out.

There were 65,000 people in attendance while millions more tuned in around the globe through streaming giant Netflix.

While it hasn't been revealed just how much money is on the line it's understood that the winner will be getting tens of millions of dollars. Speaking at a press conference in August, Paul said: "I'm here to make $40 million and knock out a legend."
