While everybody knew wild stuff was going to unfold during Jake Paul and Mike Tyson's fight, I'm not sure viewers were expecting to see Tyson's bare behind.
As the YouTuber-turned boxer and legendary heavyweight prepare to fight it out in the ring at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas tonight, Tyson spoke to one of the event's hosts before a preliminary round between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano.
After he was done speaking his peace on tonight's bout, Tyson turned around to quite literally reveal it all.

Based on the clip, it seems like it was unplanned as the camera operative was quick to zoom in on Tyson's back and get his behind out of the shot.
But then again, Netflix's official Twitter account did post the clip with the caption, "Mike Tyson's pre-fight interview got real cheeky," so who really knows?

Tyson's cheeky moment is currently doing the rounds on social media with one user writing on Twitter, "I love how my stream only worked to show me Mike Tyson's buns."
Another wrote, "Audio guys, tech guys, commentators - and ONE camera guy - getting fired tonight."
"Had to search for this post to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating," wrote another. "What on Earth was this all about?"
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 have forked out as much as $2 million for the spectacle - yes, there were really VIP tickets going for that much and all the tickets have sold out.
There are 65,000 people in attendance while millions more are tuning 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."
Tyson is rumored to have a purse of $20 million.
It's not yet known how much if anything the loser will get, but both boxers are adamant they don't need the money.
According to Celebrity New Worth, Tyson is estimated to be worth $10 million while Paul stands at $80 million dollars - it's a huge payday for either fighter even if they don't wish to admit it.
