Jake Paul has fired back at KSI's criticism of his fight against Mike Tyson.
Paul will face Tyson on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in a fight that will have a specific set of rules.
After the shock announcement, fans spotted an interesting detail in the fight poster.
UFC boss Dana White slammed the booking while Eddie Hearn pulled no punches as he shared his honest thoughts.

KSI also poked fun at Paul taking on Tyson.
And the social media star continued to take aim at Paul vs. Tyson, asking 'The Problem Child' if he'll fight Muhammad Ali next.
On the IMPAULSIVE podcast, KSI said: "Honestly, I just think it’s sad, bro.
"I think it’s super sad. I don’t know why Jake took it. It’s a lose-lose. Literally, he knocks out Mike Tyson and he’s beaten what, and OAP? Old-Age-Person... He’s 57. Mike Tyson is 57 years old. Yes, in his prime, this would have been crazy. But now it’s like, this is just sad."
The 30-year-old added: “I guess because legacy is my thing, I just feel like for Jake Paul, his legacy is going to be, ‘He can knock out old people'.
"What’s next though? Who is he going to fight next, Muhammad Ali? Is he going to dig him up?!"
Paul has reacted angrily to KSI's taunt, revealing the difference between his rival and his upcoming opponent.
He said: "You wanna know the difference between Mike Tyson and KSI? It's that Mike Tyson will actually fight me. So who's a bitch now? 'Oh, Mike's this, Mike's that', but Mike signed the contract you f**king b*tch KSI."
Paul and KSI have been linked to fight each other over the years, but nothing has materialised.
The American, who scored a big win over Ryan Bourland earlier this month, will instead look to claim the biggest scalp of his boxing career when he takes on Tyson.
