The Kelce brothers knew Tyson didn’t stand a chance

The Kelce brothers spoke on their podcast about the fightLAPRESSE

Jake Paul’s victory over Mike Tyson last weekend might have been the main headline, but Jason Kelce couldn’t resist poking fun at an unexpected moment that stole the spotlight. The fight, hosted in Texas, became the most-streamed live sporting event in history, with a staggering 65 million concurrent streams. However, for Kelce, one peculiar incident before the fight cemented his belief that Tyson wasn’t walking away with a win.

The viral moment came during the pre-fight interview. As Netflix cameras captured a lighthearted exchange between Tyson and his son, the unthinkable happened: Tyson’s bare cheeks were accidentally broadcast to millions. The mishap quickly spread across social media, leaving fans howling and scrambling to rewatch the scene.

Jason Kelce, discussing the event on the latest episode of New Heights, didn’t hold back. “I wasn’t expecting Mike to win before,” he admitted, “but the second I saw those cheeks, I knew he wasn’t winning.” His brother and co-host, Travis Kelce, chimed in, calling the moment “the funniest s- ever” and confessing that he wasted no time sending the clip to everyone he knew.

While fans debated Tyson‘s chances against Paul, the cheeky incident seemed to unite viewers in a collective moment of disbelief and hilarity. Social media platforms like X and Threads exploded with reactions, memes, and replays of the now-infamous clip. Some fans claimed their streams froze right at the pivotal moment, amplifying the absurdity of the scene.

Netflix has been facing backlash due to streaming problems

Interestingly, the fiasco wasn’t just a source of laughs but also sparked concerns about Netflix’s reliability as a live sports broadcaster. Reports suggest the NFL has approached the streaming giant for reassurances ahead of their planned Christmas Day game. After all, millions of buffering viewers-and a viral mishap-aren’t the kind of publicity anyone wants during a marquee event.

As for Tyson, his unexpected defeat and this pre-fight gaffe have undoubtedly added an unconventional twist to his legendary career. Whether or not he’ll step back into the ring after this remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: fans-and Jason Kelce-won’t forget those cheeks anytime soon.
