Despite the controversy surrounding the fight, Vlad confidently put his money on Jake Paul, predicting his victory against the legendary Tyson.
He recounted a phone call with Math Hoffa before the match, who questioned Vlad’s decision to bet on Paul. Not long into the sixth round, Vlad’s prediction proved correct, earning him a swift $500 payout from Hoffa. Both Vlad and DJ Akademiks expressed surprise at anyone doubting Jake Paul’s victory, considering it an obvious result.
DJ Akademiks also shared his thoughts on Mike Tyson’s unexpected actions before his recent fight against Jake Paul. Akademiks highlighted that the promotion strategies cleverly led everyone to believe Paul could face a surprising defeat. However, it was Tyson’s peculiar pre-fight behavior, including kissing another man, that caught fans’ attention. Akademiks likened Tyson’s unpredictable antics to Diddy, recalling Tyson’s infamous remarks and erratic history as emblematic of his wild persona. Despite any shock, Akademiks was not taken aback by the fight’s outcome. Instead, he commended Jake Paul’s ongoing prowess in marketing, likening it to Floyd Mayweather’s ability to consistently engage audiences, ensuring fans return for more, fight after fight.
