Fans have reacted after an alleged 'script' for Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson was posted online, with the document shared on social media ahead of Friday's showdown in Texas.
The last media event ahead of Paul vs Tyson descended into chaos on Thursday as 'Iron' Mike struck his opponent during the final face-off.
Tyson, 58, slapped his 27-year-old opponent as the real reason behind the blow has been revealed.
On stage, Paul delivered an explosive speech as he insisted it's now personal, claiming Tyson 'must die'.
After the weigh-ins concluded, a document emerged on social media claiming to show the outcome of the fight, which had Paul winning in the fifth round.

Meanwhile, other posts on social media claimed Google had also 'leaked' the outcome, with a different screenshot circulating which appeared to reveal the result of Paul vs Tyson.
However, the supposed Google leak shows a different outcome to the document and includes an error.
It claimed Paul wins a unanimous decision after going 10 rounds with Tyson, but the heavyweight bout is only scheduled for eight rounds.
There is no evidence to suggest the document is genuine or that Paul vs. Tyson is scripted.

Similar theories have been shared on social media before Paul's previous fights which have been debunked.
When he fought Tommy Fury, a 'script' was also shared online but it was debunked within seconds.
Paul has been accused of 'scripting' his fights, but, as of yet, there has been no proof of any notion of foul play.

Nevertheless, the latest document has divided opinion among fans on social media.
One X user wrote: "The Mike Tyson Vs. Jake Paul fight is supposed to be rigged in Paul's favour. But, Tyson is crazy, p**sed off, and can't commit to a multi-million dollar script.
"They put fourteen ounce gloves on Tyson as an insurance policy to soften the blows. However, Tyson's knock out technique has always been to strike with the wrist just behind the ear. Not with a knuckle punch. So, will the fourteen ounce gloves protect Jake Paul from Tyson's fury?"
A second tweeted: "Mike Tyson will KNOCK OUT Jake Paul. The fight will last less than 3 rounds Tyson doesn’t give a damn about no script."

While third added: "The Tyson and Jake Paul fight is going to have a better script than any wrestling match."
