It sounds like Jake Paul has a new target in mind after his Netflix fight with Mike Tyson… at least that’s the case according to Jimmy Fallon.

On Tuesday night, the “Tonight Show” host told his studio audience how Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell took a fall during a Senate luncheon. “Luckily he’s doing well and should have no problems getting ready for his upcoming fight with Jake Paul,” the NBC star joked, adding, “It’s going to be close.”

Fallon also criticized another older politician. After revealing that some of the most searched topics on Google in 2024 were the presidential election, the New York Times Connections puzzle and the Yankees, Fallon dropped the year’s “least popular” search term: “Joe Biden thirst traps.” .

This was about as political as “The Tonight Show” was on Tuesday. Instead, Fallon showed off his goofy, vacation-loving side. Later in the episode, the comedian swapped jackets with an NBC site and revealed the evening’s holiday sweater, a truly cruel piece featuring swans and giant shoulder pads.

He also traded puns with a fake aide to the New Jersey governor, played by Michael Torpey, after New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy banned books in his state on Monday.

“Just to be clear, the books are locked?” Fallon asked.

“No, Jimmy, the book bans are blocked. “It’s a book ban block,” Torpey replied.

“I’m sorry. It’s a book ban, which means you can’t block book bans,” Fallon clarified.

“No no no. That would be a block ban on books,” Torpey replied.

Basically it went on like this for about two minutes. Check out the full segment above.
