The highly anticipated showdown between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is just around the corner, set for Friday, November 15th, at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The exhibition match, titled “The Baddest Man on the Planet,” will be available for streaming on Netflix, adding to the excitement for the fans.
Paul, a former YouTuber who turned to boxing, improved his record to 10-1 with seven knockouts (KOs) after his victory on July 21 in Florida. This win came in a match against bare-knuckle fighter Mike Perry, as a replacement for the originally scheduled fight between Paul and Tyson. Meanwhile, Tyson, who has a professional record of 50 wins and 6 losses, is a former heavyweight champion and will be 58 years old at the time of the fight.
Paul and Tyson are now focusing on the bout after it was postponed due to a health emergency Tyson experienced. Despite the setback, Tyson has confirmed that his doctors have cleared him to resume training and has taken his preparation to return to the ring very seriously.
