YouTube star MrBeast found himself on the receiving end of a powerful punch from boxing legend Mike Tyson during a promotional stunt for the Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford fight. The incident took place on Saturday, September 13, 2025, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, just hours before the main boxing event.
The 27-year-old content creator, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, challenged Tyson to the stunt as part of the promotion for the Crawford-Alvarez fight. MrBeast stood alongside the 59-year-old former heavyweight champion and announced his intention to take a punch from the boxing legend. “Mike Tyson is about to punch me, because thanks to Riyadh Season, Canelo-Crawford is about to happen,” MrBeast said in the video, which has since gone viral across multiple platforms.
