- Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are set to face off
- The fight promises to be a thrilling spectacle
- The original fight date was July 20th
Boxing legends Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are set to face off in a highly anticipated match on November 15th, following a postponement due to Tyson’s health issues.
The original fight date was July 20th, but a flare-up of Tyson’s ulcer forced the rescheduling.
The much-anticipated bout will now take place at the AT&T Stadium in Texas, a venue that can accommodate a massive crowd of 80,000.
Despite a 13-year hiatus from professional boxing, Tyson, now 58, remains confident in his ability to defeat the younger Paul. “I had a small setback, but I’m feeling great and ready to go,” Tyson stated at a joint press conference.
He dismissed Paul’s previous opponents as amateurs and predicted a swift knockout victory.
Paul, 27, has a professional boxing record of 10-1 and has gained notoriety for his matches against other internet celebrities and athletes.
While he expressed respect for Tyson, Paul made it clear that their friendship was on hold until after the fight.
The Tyson-Paul match is scheduled for eight, two-minute rounds and will feature the use of 14oz gloves, rather than the standard 10oz gloves.
The fight promises to be a thrilling spectacle for boxing fans and a unique clash between two generations of fighters.
