Adam 'Pacman' Jones Arrested Following Jake Paul And Mike Tyson Fight

Adam "Pacman" Jones’ night at the highly anticipated Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight ended behind bars, as the former NFL star was arrested early Saturday morning in Arlington, Texas, on multiple charges.

Jones, who had a 13-season NFL career playing for teams like the Titans, Cowboys, Bengals, and Broncos, has had numerous run-ins with the law both during his playing days and in retirement.

This latest incident adds to a long list of legal troubles for Adam "Pacman" Jones.

Footage obtained by TMZ Sports shows Jones being taken into custody by several police officers at the Loews Arlington Hotel, just a short distance from AT&T Stadium, where the boxing event took place. Authorities confirmed that Jones was arrested and booked on charges of public intoxication, resisting arrest, evading arrest, and assaulting a police officer.

Earlier in the evening, Jones was seen mingling at the fight festivities and even shared a video of an interaction with comedian Tom Segura. In both the video and the footage from his arrest, Jones was wearing an all-black outfit and cowboy hat, further confirming his attendance at the high-profile event.

According to jail records, Jones remains in custody with a bail set at $319. While the amount might seem low, Jones must still appear before a judge, who could significantly increase the figure.

In a highly anticipated boxing match at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, Jake Paul emerged victorious over Mike Tyson via unanimous decision, with judges scoring the fight 80–72, 79–73, and 79–73 in Paul’s favor.

Tyson started the fight with an aggressive approach, evoking memories of his prime. However, by the third round, his energy waned, allowing Paul to take control. Paul landed several key punches and maintained dominance for the remainder of the bout.

"Jake Paul can’t finish a 58-year-old who has the mobility of a tree," one X user said. "We gotta collectively agree to stop paying attention to this Jake Paul circus. What an embarrassment to boxing."

NFL star JJ Watt even chimed in. "Mad at myself for staying awake for that," he said. "I know better."

"Credit to Jake Paul + Mike Tyson for pulling off one of the great cons of century," another X user said. "I shoulda put 10 million on Jake. Not cause he's good but cause he fought a senior citizen. I would say everybody involved should be ashamed, but I'd take the money too if I could."

The highly anticipated fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson was initially scheduled for July but was postponed following an ulcer flare-up that Tyson experienced in May.

After the incident, a representative for Tyson told PEOPLE, "Thankfully, Mr. Tyson is doing great" after "he became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing." The delay allowed Tyson additional time to recover and prepare for the bout, which ultimately took place in November.

The Netflix broadcast of the fight, plagued by technical issues throughout the night, clearly captured boos from the audience, and many fans were seen leaving the arena before the winner was officially announced.

The stream faced issues early in the night, with viewers reporting buffering problems and instances of miscommunication with the host. Netflix, which has encountered similar technical difficulties in the past, struggled to deliver a seamless viewing experience. As the event continued, complaints surfaced about screen quality, with some at-home viewers finding it difficult to fully enjoy the fight.

Despite Jake Paul’s decisive victory, the outcome didn’t sit well with the largely pro-Tyson crowd, who had supported the former heavyweight champion throughout the weekend. This included the dramatic weigh-in on Thursday, where tensions flared during a slapping incident involving Tyson.

Jake Paul, the YouTuber-turned-boxer, extended his professional record to 11-1 with a unanimous decision win over Mike Tyson on November 15, 2024. Paul has been vocal about his ambition to win a world championship, and this victory could mark an important step toward achieving that goal.

Following the fight, Artur Beterbiev, the undisputed light-heavyweight world champion, offered Paul a title shot.
