Mike Tyson shoves Jake Paul at press conference for November fight

Mike Tysonshows that he is not afraid of Jake Paul … gave him a few shoves during a press conference about their upcoming fight – and laughed the whole time.

The heavyweight boxing legend came face to face with the YouTuber-turned-fighter on Sunday at Fanatics Fest at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City… and as they met in the middle, Tyson landed a quick left punch to Paul's chest.

Tyson and Paul exchange words before going back to each other… with Tyson shoving JP – and laughing at his 27-year-old opponent.

They have to face each other one more time and the two finally let the photographers take the photos they need… before Paul brings MT back with his own push.

Mike seemed to be in high spirits throughout the entire exchange… apparently there wasn't much malice behind it – Paul, on the other hand, didn't seem too happy about the champion making fun of him in front of all the cameras.

It is not the first time that the two have held a press conference like this, remember. The fight was originally scheduled to take place last month, but the two fighters agreed to postpone it after Mike had a medical emergency on a plane at the end of May.

Tyson was still bad-mouthing his opponent after the medical scare, saying his emergency only bought Paul more time. Jake has promised him no mercy in the ring – so don't expect anyone to take it easy on November 15.

The tension in their fight is already building… and Tyson is enjoying every minute of it.
