One man who feels he helped pave the way for Paul on his journey is former world heavyweight champion Shannon Briggs, who worked with ‘The Problem Child’ during the early stages of his career. Briggs was an interested observer when Paul and Tyson met, and he revealed whether he felt that the fight may have been pre-determined beforehand.

And folks who remember the Mike Tyson of 20 to 30 years ago would have assumed that bout would’ve ended in a knockout in Tyson’s favor, against almost anyone, much less a YouTube star turned fighter. Drake was among those who thought Tyson would surely win.
