    Mike Tyson shows strength during an open workout as he prepares to take on Jake Paul

    IRVING, Texas – It was Mike Tyson in the flesh – and in the ring.

    For months, all the public has seen are video clips of the former world heavyweight champion training to fight Jake Paul. But during an open workout on Tuesday night, Tyson, 58, gave a glimpse of what’s in store when he fights Paul on Friday night at AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys.

    All fourteen boxers on the fight card took part in the open training, but none received as loud cheers as Tyson. He rewarded hundreds of spectators at Toyota Music Factory with flashes of his old strength.

    “Kick his ass, Mike,” was a popular cry as fans made it clear they wanted Tyson to hit Paul as hard as he hit the mitts holding one of his trainers on Tuesday night.

    Although the session clearly impressed the audience, it only lasted about three minutes.

    “When I agreed to this fight and started training, I said, ‘What’s on my mind?’ Tyson said in the ring after his workout. “And I completed the process and now the fight is the party.

    “All the hard work is done.”

    The training culminated in Paul. He boxed while wearing a rooster wig, a nod to his latest nickname, El Gallo.

    “I feel really good,” Paul said during his in-ring interview. “Sharp, powerful, explosive. And it’s going to be a short night for Mike.”
