The stars illuminated AT&T Stadium on Friday night as the highly publicized boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson drew massive attention. While Dallas Cowboys fans are accustomed to witnessing thrilling and flamboyant spectacles at Jerry’s World, the antics continued to unfold long after the final bell rang, highlighting the event’s unpredictable nature.
Former Cowboys defensive back Adam “Pacman” Jones, who has had his fair share of brushes with the law, found himself embroiled in controversy once again in the aftermath of the fight.
Pacman was taken into custody on multiple charges shortly after the event, according to TMZ Sports, raising eyebrows among fans and onlookers alike.
Video footage obtained by the outlet captured the moment the former All-Pro defensive back was escorted out of the Loews Arlington Hotel, which is conveniently located near the stadium, adding to the spectacle of the night.

Authorities reported that Pacman faced charges including public intoxication, resisting arrest, evading arrest, and assault on a police officer, further tarnishing his already checkered reputation.
According to Pacman’s representation, he “adamantly denies the allegations and looks forward to explaining the truth when the time comes.” They emphasized that, like many in Dallas that night, Pac was simply in town for the fight, relishing the festive atmosphere and mingling with fans.
Additionally, they noted, “Pacman was returning to his hotel to wind down for the evening. He was not looking for trouble,” suggesting a perspective that contradicts the events that unfolded.
Throughout his tumultuous 13-year NFL career, Pacman played for various teams including the Cowboys, Tennessee Titans, Cincinnati Bengals, and Denver Broncos. However, his career has often been overshadowed by numerous off-field controversies that have left an indelible mark on his legacy.
How might Adam “Pacman” Jones’ arrest influence the perception of celebrity boxing matches moving forward?
