In the highly anticipated boxing match, Mike Tyson faced off against Jake Paul. Despite being 58 years old, Tyson went the full eight rounds against the much younger 27-year-old Paul. The match ended with Tyson losing by unanimous decision, leaving some fans disheartened.
However, The Game, a Los Angeles-based rapper, quickly came to Tyson’s defense. He took to his X account, formerly known as Twitter, to address critics. He found it admirable that Tyson, despite the loss, walked away with substantial earnings and his pride intact. The Game also saw this as another feather in Tyson’s illustrious cap.
The Game expressed his thoughts to his followers by stating, “I saw a 58-year-old legend go 8 rounds with a 27-year-old in front of the world in a sold-out football stadium and walk away with 20 million dollars, his dignity & yet another achievement he said was only for HIM. I’m proud of you champ!”
He later shared this message on Instagram, reiterating his admiration for Tyson. The Game also shared a personal connection by saying Tyson was his hero growing up and that has not changed.
While expressing his support for Tyson, The Game has been busy with his own projects. He is on the brink of completing the third installment of his album series, The Documentary. It’s been a labor of dedication, with The Game spending long hours in the studio. The album’s release is anticipated to coincide with the twentieth anniversary of his original album in January 2025.
The Game remains a loyal supporter of Mike Tyson, celebrating his resilience and echoing his enduring admiration.
