Jake Paul and Mike Tyson appeared to put their rivalry in the ring aside to toast the freshly sworn-in President Donald Trump Monday night – but boxing fans now claim there was never any real conflict to begin with.

The boxers, enemies in the ring just months ago, were more than cordial as they mingled among the political heavyweights, tech titans and media moguls at the many galas to celebrate Trump’s inauguration in Washington DC.

Paul, 27, and Tyson, 58, joined the sporting A-listers headlining the inauguration celebrations, including the likes of Conor McGregor, Dana White and Paul’s brother, Logan. 

But instead of clashing – as they did two months ago at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas – the pair teamed up to provide a memorable moment from the festivities. 

The lackluster result sparked several conspiracy theories with even Dallas Cowboys legend Michael Irvin suggesting the fight had been fixed due to a mystery clause in the contract.
