The bizarre reason why Jake Paul has a pigeon in his dressing room ahead of Mike Tyson fight

Jake Paul has a pigeon in his dressing room ahead of his fight against Mike Tyson and here's why.

Paul vs. Tyson is just hours away as the Netflix event will culminate with a heavyweight showdown.

Both fighters have made their way to the AT&T Stadium as they prepare themselves in their respective dressing rooms.

During the Mario Barrios vs. Abel Ramos fight, the pictures cut to Paul's dressing room, where he could be seen putting his ring attire on.

Boxing fans also noticed a pigeon in his dressing room as they questioned it.

One X user wrote: "Excuse me, what is @jakepaul doing with that pigeon in the locker room?"

A second tweeted: "Yoo Jake Paul is such A TROLL... has pigeons in his locker room."

A third added: "Jake Paul bringing a pigeon to the fight is nasty work."

Well, the pigeon was originally a present for Tyson, who is an avid lover of pets, especially pigeons.

In a media event, Paul gifted Tyson the pigeon but the 58-year-old refused the present.

The 27-year-old kept the pigeon for himself and has brought it with him to his fight in what appears to be a dig at Tyson.
