Get ready for an exciting Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul exhibition fight! The legendary boxer and the YouTuber-turned-boxer will step into the ring on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Netflix will stream this thrilling exhibition boxing match live, giving fans around the world a chance to witness the epic clash between two very different generations of fighters.
Although the record books won’t consider it an official fight, Tyson promises a real fight without the usual restrictions seen in exhibition matches. The 57-year-old boxing icon is confident in his abilities, saying,
“I don’t think he’s faster than me. This guy is going to come, he’s going to try to hurt me, which I’m accustomed to. He’s going to be greatly mistaken.”
Jake Paul, 27, has been trying to establish himself as a legitimate boxer for the past five years, with mixed results. He has primarily faced older MMA fighters and recently suffered his first loss against Tommy Fury, the first actual boxer he faced. However, Paul has since bounced back with quick victories over lesser-known boxers Andre August and Ryan Bourland.
The Paul family has experience with exhibition matches. In 2021, Jake’s brother, Logan, faced Floyd Mayweather in an eight-round exhibition, which ended without a declared winner.
As the fight draws near, Tyson confesses to feeling “scared to death” but expects his nerves to settle as the event approaches. He also holds no grudges against Paul, calling him “beautiful.”
The fight promises to be an entertaining spectacle, with Paul hyping the match in his usual fashion, including a joke face tattoo and a jab at Tyson’s infamous ear-biting incident. Will the legendary Mike Tyson prove his invincibility, or will the young Jake Paul pull off a shocking upset? Tune in on July 20 to find out Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul exhibition fight!.
