Jake Paul has been facing ongoing allegations of rigged fights, and now Most Valuable Promotions is speaking out.
Known for his controversial personality and choice of opponents, Jake has sparked frustration among fans, leading to bold accusations. After his recent win over Mike Tyson, the allegations intensified, prompting MVP Promotions to issue a statement in response.
‘Claims that undermine the integrity of the Paul vs. Tyson fight’.
“Following the wide circulation of incorrect and baseless claims that undermine the integrity of the Paul vs. Tyson event,” stated Naskisa Bidarian, co-founder of MVP. “Most Valuable Promotions would like to set the record straight regarding the contractual agreements and the nature of the fight.”
“Rigging a professional boxing match is a federal crime in the United States of America. Paul vs. Tyson was a professional match sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations.”
“Both fighters in good faith performed to the best of their abilities with the goal of winning the fight.”
“There were absolutely no restrictions—contractual or otherwise—around either fighter.”
“Each boxer was able to use his full arsenal to win the fight. Any agreement to the contrary would violate TDLR boxing rules.”
Bidarian said that people who think the fight was fake are not thinking right. He explained that making the fight fake would be very bad for them and could get them into big trouble with Netflix and the law.
“It is further illogical and insane that MVP, in the debut of a hopeful long-term partnership with the world’s biggest streamer—an organization that made its first-ever foray into live professional sports with Paul vs. Tyson—would even so much as consider such a perverse violation of the rules of competition.”
Bidarian said nice things about Jake Paul, saying that all the people who doubt him will just make Jake work even harder and do even better in boxing.
“This is not the first time Jake Paul has faced unfounded skepticism or outright disbelief as a professional athlete, and frankly, the claim that his bout must have been rigged is just the latest backhanded compliment to come his way.”
“From day one in this sport, people have doubted his abilities—unable to reconcile how someone with his background has accomplished so much in such a short time.”
“Jake has not only proven himself repeatedly, but he has continuously set historic records that speak for themselves.”
“As long as Jake continues to exceed expectations, there will always be those who try to discredit his achievements. We embrace the doubt—it only fuels Jake to work harder and achieve greater success.”

A lot of people are talking about the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight that happened on November 15, but not everyone thinks it was real.
Some fans are questioning if the fight was fixed. Sylvester Stallone, a close friend of Tyson, even posted on Instagram saying Tyson should get an Oscar for his performance in the ring.
There’s also a viral clip going around where people are pointing out how Tyson seemed to be holding back punches and letting Jake Paul take control of the fight. Fans are starting to wonder if the whole thing was set up.
