The anticlimatic spectacle was given a savage assessment by former WBA and IBF super-middleweight champion Carl Froch. The Nottingham-born fighter had no kind words for Paul or his performance and questioned the fighter's abilities.

“It was crap, wasn't it?" Froch said on his , "Let's be honest, the fight itself was awful…

"It looked like Mike Tyson turned up just to play his role in this little circus. And Jake Paul, he was either too scared to engage and stay in close with Mike Tyson or he was being true to his word, he didn't want to hurt him, didn't want to knock him out.

"But I don't think he could have done it, I don't think Jake Paul's good enough. Let's not forget Jake Paul has only had one professional boxing contest and that was with and he lost that fight. Tommy Fury's kind of British level at best.

"But yeah, the fight itself was a massive anti-climax. It was f***ing crap. It was a waste of time. I'm glad I didn't stay up late to watch it. All the people that paid good money to be there and watch it, they must be disappointed with that performance.

"I'm not taking anything away from Mike Tyson. He's 58 years old. He can only do what he can do. He's got an old body.

"But Jake Paul put in a s*** performance as well.

"I don't like the way he's trying to say he didn't really try because I think he did try at moments in there. He did have a swing up.

"Jake Paul really didn't want to engage. I don't think he had the bottle to stand in front of Tyson and try and do anything to get him out of there."
