One of the biggest boxing events of the year is almost here. No, not a title unification or undisputed clash, but a fight between a former heavyweight champion of the world and a boxer turned social media star. That’s right, Mike Tyson and Jack Paul will square off on November 15 from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas in an event that will stream live on Netflix.
Tyson’s legend and vast experience put him as a modest underdog. What Paul lacks in longevity he should make up for with youth, commitment and a capable team behind him. The bout was originally scheduled to go down on July 20, but Tyson suffered a medical issue related to an ulcer that forced the postponement.
The fight will also be an officially sanctioned fight by the Texas Commission. The fight will be eight, two-minute rounds with slightly larger gloves than usual.
Paul (9-1, 6 KOs) is all-in on boxing. The YouTuber began boxing other social media stars before becoming a UFC fighter and experimenting with sweet science. Paul recently took a detour from beating older, younger MMA fighters like Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz and went down a more traditional developmental path. Paul holds the record for consecutive knockout wins over club-level boxers leading up to Tyson’s announcement.
Tyson (50-6-2 NC, 44 KOs) has not boxed publicly since his 2020 exhibition against fellow legend Roy Jones Jr. ended in a draw. It is often said that power is the last thing to go and “Iron” Mike will need it against an opponent 30 years his junior. Former undisputed world heavyweight boxing champion with wins over Larry Holmes and Michael Spinks is an all-time great.
The undercard will feature a fantastic rematch as Katie Taylor puts her undisputed super lightweight titles on the line against Amanda Serrano. The two women will be the first to headline an event at Madison Square Garden in April 2022 where Taylor earned a split decision to retain her undisputed lightweight title. Now, after Taylor defeated Chantel Cameron via majority decision in November to claim the title, the two will meet in a weight class.
