Paul made his grand entrance in a low rider alongside his brother, Logan. He also came out to the song “In the Air Tonight” by Phil Collins, which is the same song that Tyson jammed out to in the 2009 comedy “The Hangover.”

Meanwhile, Tyson kept it simple, walking in solo without a big entourage. He paid homage to his late daughter, Exodus, who tragically died at age 4 when she was strangled to death in 2009 by a treadmill cord, by having her name stitched into his shorts.

Tensions were high leading up to the highly anticipated fight, which took place in the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

On Thursday, Tyson, 58, slapped Paul, 27, across the face while the men were on stage to take their pre-fight weights at the Toyota Music Factory in Irving, Texas.

Things quickly turned violent after the internet star, who was wearing shoes, crawled over to Tyson and stepped on his bare toes.

After the former undisputed world heavyweight champion slapped Paul, several people quickly intervened and pulled the dad of seven back.

Paul laughed off the incident and began hyping up the crowd, screaming, “Let’s go!”

During an interview with The New York Post, Tyson went into detail about why he smacked his opponent.

“I was in my socks and he had on shoes. He stepped on my toe because he is a f–king a–hole,” he explained.

“I wanted to think it happened by accident. But now I think it may have happened on purpose,” Tyson added.

“I was in a lot of pain. I had to reciprocate.”

Meanwhile, Paul was unbothered by the hit, telling the media that he “didn’t even feel it.”
