FRESNO, CA
A paperwork mixup has boxing legend Mike Tyson set to square up against Fresno area farmer Jake Pauls tonight.
“Yeah, when I got the note in my church mailbox, I thought, ‘oba, it doesn’t give such,'” said Pauls. “But I started training for sure once.”
Pauls has been lifting bails and knacking zoat for months in preparation for the fight.
“I like my odds,” said Pauls. “Tyson may have more experience, but that only goes so far against a Mennonite farm boy.”
Pauls received a special dispensation from Pastor Rod to participate in the fight.
“We’re a non-violent church,” said Pastor Rod, “but as long as he doesn’t kill anyone, we’ll allow it.”
Rumour has it, Pastor Rod allowed the fight since Jake Pauls promised to tithe a substantial portion of the $80 million prize money.
