One X user wrote: "I thought the gloves were supposed to be 14oz? Those look like 18oz+."

A second tweeted: "The gloves are comically oversized."

A third joked: "Socker bopper ass gloves."

A fourth said: "Who’s he supposed to hurt wearing 50oz gloves?"

Another laughed: "Why they got Mike Tyson posted up in the Mickey Mouse gloves?"

Tyson and Paul will wear 16 oz gloves for their clash and will be contested over eight two-minute rounds.

The former world heavyweight champion, who hasn't competed since his 2020 exhibition against Roy Jones Jr, called it a 'no-brainer' to accept a fight against the YouTuber-turned-boxer.

"It was a no-brainer," he said in the presser. "He was a new up and coming guy on the scene, and I like shaking the sports world to its core and I'm doing it now. It's just something I want to do."
