by Monica Mercuri · ForbesMike Tyson is stepping back into the ring to face YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. Read on to find out when the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight will stream on Netflix and learn everything about the highly anticipated matchup.
The 58-year-old heavyweight was initially scheduled to fight 27-year-old Paul on July 20, but the match was postponed to Nov. 15 after the former champion experienced an ulcer flare-up during a flight that left him hospitalized. Netflix’s three-part documentary series, Countdown: Paul vs. Tyson, offers a behind-the-scenes look at Tyson’s recovery and return to training.
“It would be the biggest moment in boxing history on Friday night when I put this man to sleep,” Paul said in a clip promoting the fight. Meanwhile, Tyson responded, “He dreams a lot... This is not going to come true, young man.”
Tonight’s matchup between “The Problem Child” and “The Baddest Man on the Planet” promises to be an exciting watch. Tyson holds an impressive career record of 50-6, with 44 wins by knockout, while Paul has gone 10-1 since his 2020 boxing debut. The fight will feature eight two-minute rounds, with both fighters wearing 14-ounce gloves, which is heavier than the standard.
