Jake Paul appears to be taking his heavyweight debut against Mike Tyson seriously.
Paul, who has fought under 200 pounds throughout his career, has forced himself to gain weight for his July 20th heavyweight fight against Tyson.
Paul has talked about fighting 30 pounds heavier than he normally weighs.

“Normally I’m fighting at 200 and walking around at 210. It’s weird to me that I’m weighing 230,”
On Tuesday, Paul showed off his new physique, and he looks absolutely massive at 230 pounds.
