Jake Paul produces his most unhinged interview yet after being slapped in the face by Mike Tyson

Jake Paul delivered a profanity-filled speech after being slapped by Mike Tyson during the official weigh-ins.

Paul and Tyson weighed in during Thursday's ceremonial weigh-ins as they tipped the scales at 227.2lbs and 228.4lbs respectively.

After weighing in ahead of Friday's heavyweight showdown, both fighters faced off before chaos ensued.

Paul was struck by Tyson as he approached the boxing legend for the final face-off as the real reason behind the slap has been revealed.

Officials and security immediately intervened as Paul and Tyson were separated.

Speaking to Ariel Helwani on the stage after being slapped, the 27-year-old screamed fighting words down the mic, insisting Tyson 'must die'.

"I didn’t even feel it. He’s angry. He’s an angry little elf," he told Helwani. "Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap."

'The Problem Child' then grabbed the mic before roaring: "It’s personal now. He must die."

Speaking backstage, he added: "I didn’t really feel it, to be honest, quite literally didn’t really feel it.

"It’s personal now. I respect it. More sales for the fight, more hype, I love it. This is the Mike Tyson I wanted the whole, entire time. Get him angry, let’s bring out the badass motherf**ker, because he’s going to sleep.

"I love it. I love this sh*t. I was asking for it all week. I got what I wanted, and it was a slap to the face. He made a lot of people happy with that."

Tyson, who is making his first appearance in a professional bout since 2005, kept it short and sweet when talking after the weigh-ins.

"Talking's over," he said before walking off stage.
