Paul is geared to fight Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium in Texas on July 20, which was previously thought of as an exhibition fight. However, according to a statement from Ariel Helwani in his podcast MMA Hour, the fight could be a professional one under the auspices of the Texas Boxing Commission.

“They’re still working on a few important details based on the conversations I’ve had,” said Helwani. “Is it pro or is it an exhibition? They want pro, but that’s up to the Texas Commission, we’ll have to wait and see. Weight? I’m told heavyweight. Rounds? I’m working on that as well.” Helwani continued.
