Interesting conversation with Jake Paul … who did his best to channel Mike Tyson when talking to TMZ Sports, threatening to eat Tyron Woodley when they fight this Sunday.
“I might eat this man. I might eat this man on television.”
Yes … serious shades of Tyson vs. Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield.
Lucky us, there’s more … 24-year-old Paul sent a message to the 39-year-old future UFC Hall of Famer.
“Hey Tyron, hope you’re not afraid of hippo tigers, because I’m a hippo tiger and you just pissed me off. And, when a hippo tiger is pissed off, he does crazy s**t.”
It’s reminiscent of Iron Mike’s epic tirade in 2000 … when Tyson, talking about Lewis, uttered the now-infamous phrase … “I want your heart. I want to eat his children.”
SHOWTIME
We also talked to Jake about the verbal altercation between his squad and Woodley’s mom, Deborah … and The Problem Child told us there’s plenty of blame to go around.
Bottom line — Paul and Tyson finally get to put hands on each other this Sunday … when they square off on Showtime PPV.
