TYSON’S SLAP TO JAKE PAULMike Tyson had been calm in the days leading up to the fight, but he made it clear that this wasn’t just a show. "I just want to fight," he warned. And boy, did he mean it. During the final face-off before this weekend's match, Jake Paul bent down and stomped on Tyson, who was barefoot. What followed was an unexpected slap from Tyson, straight to Paul’s face, shocking everyone present.
The hit left Jake Paul in disbelief, but he quickly played it off, smiling and touching his face. Tyson, without a word, left the stage, making it clear his patience had run out. Paul, who had tried to provoke him before with jokes, finally got the reaction he wanted.

The slow-motion of the day.
LIFE IS A GAME OF INJUSTICESLife is, often, a game of injustices. Things don't always go as they should. You put in the effort, do the right thing, and still, sometimes you end up losing. It's as if the universe, in its chaotic sense of humor, decided that it's not enough to screw you over once, but also to give you an extra hit, one you didn't see coming.
And the thing is, even though we want to believe that the world rewards justice, the reality is that it doesn't always happen that way. Sometimes, despite being in the right place, doing the right thing, you find yourself face to face with cruelty or indifference. Life doesn't always give you what you deserve, but rather what happens at that moment, and what happens isn't always fair.
But that's life: unpredictable, often unfair, and full of unexpected blows. All you can do is get up, with the mark of the last hit on your face, and keep going, knowing that next time, maybe things will turn out better. Or maybe not. But in the end, we keep moving forward because life doesn't stop, and neither can we.
