Travis Kelce had a laugh at Mike Tyson’s bare butt before last Friday night’s Netflix bout between him and Jake Paul.
On his “New Heights” podcast on Wednesday, the Chiefs tight end recalled seeing the camera “slowly pan to catch” the legendary boxer “in nothing but a jockstrap” just minutes before Tyson took the ring.
“I immediately sent that to f–king everyone,” Kelce said. “That was the funniest s–t ever. … That was some funny-ass s–t.”
His brother and co-host, Jason Kelce, was amused by the flap as well, saying he “knew” Tyson was going to lose to Paul once he saw his backside on live television.
“You lose your glutes, you lose your game,” Jason said. “He’s got an old man ass. … You can’t be out there with saggy glutes.”
“He wasn’t bouncing,” Travis replied.
Tyson, 58, fell to Paul, who at 27 is more than 30 years his junior, by unanimous decision.
Even at his age, the Kelce brothers agreed Tyson would “definitely still whoop” them if they got in the ring with the former world heavyweight champion.
The Kelces were two of an estimated 60 million people to tune in on Netflix for the heavily anticipated fight Friday night at AT&T Stadium.
Scores of fans, though, missed some or all of the action throughout the broadcast after their stream froze or crashed altogether, which was something the NFL had questions about.
The streamer is set to air an NFL doubleheader on Christmas with Kelce’s Chiefs taking on the Steelers and the Ravens playing the Texans.
Netflix reportedly reassured the league that they figured out what went wrong last Friday, and that any issues would be solved by Dec. 25.
