Goyat, 33, won the bout against Nunes by a unanimous decision after six rounds.
However, it was an action from the Indian boxer in the third round that sparked controversy.
As boxing debutant Nunes was shoved into the blue corner, Goyat made the decision to DRY-HUMP him from behind.
The referee quickly broke up the action and Goyat returned to his corner of the ring.
Fans were left stunned by his actions during the fight as they reacted on social media.
One posted: “Goyat humping Nunes in the corner has to be the most disrespectful act I’ve ever seen on live sports television.”
A second commented: “Disrespectful af from Goyat. Tuned into Netflix to watch boxing not this.”
A third wrote: “Originally didn’t care who won this undercard fight between Goyat & Nunes, but Goyat deserves to be dropped for that kind of disrespect.”

A fourth said: “Goyat humped the guy in the corner, it was no contest after that.”
Another added: “What did I just watch? Goyat humped his opponent on live TV. Is that cool in India?”

Goyat is the first Indian boxer to make the WBC rankings and won the scorecard by 60-54.
He has now won four of his previous five matches.
Elsewhere, before the main event fight the crowd booed Paul as he was driven to the ring.
He arrived in a green Chevvy car alongside his brother Logan with a pigeon in a cage.
The Problem Child was dressed in silver shorts, gloves and a jacket totalling 360 diamonds and costing £790,000.
Viewers also had issues with Netflix’s live stream of the fight as it was hit with technical difficulties such as buffering and sound issues.
Paul admitted that he failed to knock out Tyson “on purpose” when quizzed by reporters.
Despite suffering defeat by a unanimous decision, Tyson is not ready to hang up the gloves.
Post-fight, he cheekily challenged Logan Paul to a fight, leaving him perplexed.
The fight was criticised heavily on social media, as many were left underwhelmed.
Conor McGregor took his dig too far as he suggested Paul should fight Prichard Colon in a now-deleted tweet.
Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson round-by-round
MIKE TYSON’s long-awaited return to the ring didn’t have the fairytale ending fight fans dreamed of.
SunSport’s boxing expert Wally Downes Jr recaps one of the drabbest and most forgettable nights in boxing history.
And he didn’t hold back, issuing a scathing assessment of social media sensation Jake Paul.
Round One
Paul says “I love you, Mike” just before the opening bell sounds. He quickly runs away and holds the boxing legend.
Tyson draws a big reaction from the crowd as he lands a jab and a good right hand.
Verdict: 10-9 Tyson
Round Two
Paul ran away in the opener and held – just like we thought he would.
Tommy Fury had it first and now Mike Tyson. It’s clever because Tyson will tire. Paul tags Tyson’s body with a straight right.
Tyson looks spent now. 180 seconds in and the fight looks over.
Verdict: 10-9 Tyson
Round Three
The legend cannot even keep his gumshield in. As expected it’s a waste of time. Paul has run away until the 58-year-old has tired.
Shooting ducks in a barrel now. Tyson might get hurt here. Paul lands a couple of clumsy shots and Tyson wobbles backwards.
Tragic after three.
Verdict: 10-9 Paul
Round Four
This is proper rubbish. The crowd are bored and boos are being heard.
This is just two tired big lumps going at it. One a legend, one a promoter.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Five
Paul jabs the body and aims right for the head and another one-two clips the icon.
Tyson cannot keep his mouthpiece in, he is gasping for air. Paul lands a left hook but then so does Tyson.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Six
Thank God these weren’t three-minute rounds. We are getting about four punches per round.
Tyson is gasping in the air but replays show a left hook did graze Paul’s beard.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Seven
Tyson slips a jab and tries an uppercut. The commentator admits it has been a “sad” spectacle.
The AT&T stadium has been utterly stunk out. Paul is looking just as tired as Tyson.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
Round Eight
Go back to YouTube, Jake. You’re an excellent conman. But you’ve never been a boxer.
The Judges decide: 80-72, 79-73 and 79-73. I’m glad Tyson gets paid and has stayed safe.
But what a laughable performance from Paul to add to his stinker with Tommy Fury.
Verdict 10-9 Paul
SunSport’s final scorecard – 78-74 for Jake Paul
