Watch Mike Tyson's entrance to the ring ahead of Jake Paul fight at AT&T Stadium

Former undisputed world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has given fans dozens of electrifying walk-outs throughout his career, and his return to the boxing ring Friday was no different.

Tyson sent a message to YouTube star-turned-boxer Jake Paul with his prefight soundtrack, Jay-Z's "Murdergram," as he walked out to the ring at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Despite being 58-years-old, Tyson still has an intimidating presence, highlighted by his quick saunter to the ring. Tyson made his walk to the ring solo and wasn't accompanied by a large entourage.

Tyson also paid tribute to his late daughter Exodus Sierra Tyson, who tragically died at age 4 when a treadmill cord got wrapped around her neck and strangled her to death in 2009. He has Exodus' name stitched into his black shorts and has a tattoo of his late daughter on his chest over his heart, which he regularly points to in honor of her memory.

Here's how Tyson entered AT&T Stadium:
