Dozens of fans were seen watching the scrap in the stands as the men missed with ambitious superman punches before ending up holding each other as fellow fans jumped in to break them up.
The 30 second brawl also saw an attempted headlock and even one of the men trying to gouge the other’s eyes out.
It ended with both men clinging on to each other.
Several of the onlooking boxing fanatics had their phones out filming the lacklustre action.
A number of other fights also took place on Friday night outside of the boxing ring.
One viral clip on social media shows what appears to be two women being separated after brawling on the floor.
Video shows one of the fighting fans sat on top of the other and raining down flurries of punches before being dragged off.
Elsewhere, a man was seen shouting at a fellow supporter as a huge group of people stand between the feuding pair in the stands.
The fights in the stands had more action than the main event in the ring however as Paul, the YouTuber, went toe-to-toe with the retired boxing icon in Tyson.
Paul met Tyson in the centre of the ring in a record-breaking event in Texas.
A packed out 70,000 stadium saw fans of all ages excited to see if Tyson, 58, could unleash his old self and land a knockout blow on a 27-year-old Paul.
But Paul – a former Disney Channel child actor – easily beat up an old Iron Mike as fans booed their underwhelming and dull Netflix fight.
The youngster wore out the veteran and won on all three scorecards by wide margins.
Only 96 punches landed across the eight round scuffle with Tyson throwing just 97 in total.
Paul even managed to miss the slow moving target of Tyson with over 200 punches as he ended the bout with a bleak 28 per cent hit percentage.
Tyson was once the youngest heavyweight champion of the world aged just 20 all the way back in November 1986.
He became famous for his ferocious fighting style and impervious ability to leave his opponents flat on their backs on the canvas.
But Tyson, who had won 44 of his 50 professional wins by knockout – had his last official fight nearly 20 years ago in June 2005.
He even became the undisputed king of the boxing division – a decade before Paul was even born.
But the 58-year-old was know up against someone young enough to be his son in what was the largest age difference in a legally-sanctioned professional boxing fight of all time.
Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson round-by-round
MIKE TYSON’s long-awaited return to the ring didn’t have the fairytale ending fight fans dreamed of.
SunSport’s boxing expert Wally Downes Jr recaps one of the drabbest and most forgettable nights in boxing history.
And he didn’t hold back, issuing a scathing assessment of social media sensation Jake Paul.
Round One
Paul says “I love you, Mike” just before the opening bell sounds. He quickly runs away and holds the boxing legend.
Tyson draws a big reaction from the crowd as he lands a jab and a good right hand.
Verdict: 10-9 Tyson
Round Two
Paul ran away in the opener and held – just like we thought he would.
Tommy Fury had it first and now Mike Tyson. It’s clever because Tyson will tire. Paul tags Tyson’s body with a straight right.
Tyson looks spent now. 180 seconds in and the fight looks over.
Verdict: 10-9 Tyson
Round Three
The legend cannot even keep his gumshield in. As expected it’s a waste of time. Paul has run away until the 58-year-old has tired.
Shooting ducks in a barrel now. Tyson might get hurt here. Paul lands a couple of clumsy shots and Tyson wobbles backwards.
Tragic after three.
Verdict: 10-9 Paul
Round Four
This is proper rubbish. The crowd are bored and boos are being heard.
This is just two tired big lumps going at it. One a legend, one a promoter.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Five
Paul jabs the body and aims right for the head and another one-two clips the icon.
Tyson cannot keep his mouthpiece in, he is gasping for air. Paul lands a left hook but then so does Tyson.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Six
Thank God these weren’t three-minute rounds. We are getting about four punches per round.
Tyson is gasping in the air but replays show a left hook did graze Paul’s beard.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Seven
Tyson slips a jab and tries an uppercut. The commentator admits it has been a “sad” spectacle.
The AT&T stadium has been utterly stunk out. Paul is looking just as tired as Tyson.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Eight
Go back to YouTube, Jake. You’re an excellent conman. But you’ve never been a boxer.
The Judges decide: 80-72, 79-73 and 79-73. I’m glad Tyson gets paid and has stayed safe.
But what a laughable performance from Paul to add to his stinker with Tommy Fury.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
SunSport’s final scorecard – 78-74 for Jake Paul
