Jake Paul was able to get the biggest win of his boxing career Friday night, defeating the legendary Mike Tyson via unanimous decision in their eight-round fight at AT&T Stadium in Dallas.

While Netflix's broadcast of the fight was marred by awful buffering issues, Paul was able to take control of the fight in the second round, connecting on a few strong punches that clearly hurt the 58-year-old Tyson.

The 27-year-old Paul then controlled the fight the rest of the way and cruised to an easy win. He's now 11-1 in his boxing career.
