Jake Paul will take on boxing legend Mike Tyson in a livestreamed match on Netflix this July. The fight is scheduled for July 20th at AT&T Stadium in Texas. This is bound to become a significant moment for both fighters and the streaming platform. While details on the undercard are yet to be revealed, the main event is sure to generate considerable buzz. It will put out a total of 80,000 tickets for the fans, and will be bannered as an exhibition fight.

This isn’t the first time Paul and Tyson have crossed paths in the boxing world. Back in 2020, Paul boxed on the undercard of Tyson’s exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. This bout was significant in boxing as it was Tyson’s return to the ring after a 14-year hiatus. This upcoming fight, however, will see Paul step into the ring with Tyson himself.

After defeating Ryan Bourland via knockout, it’s quite historic to see him go against the Youngest heavyweight champion in the history of boxing. Furthermore, this fight will have Paul engaging in a fight in the heavyweight division for the first time ever. He’s only entered the ring as a cruiserweight boxer before. This is a great announcement for all the boxing fans out there. Even Paul has addressed this insane announcement.

Jake Paul terms it the biggest ever event

In a statement, Jake Paul told the boxing fans that it wouldn’t matter which side they choose for the victory, as they wouldn’t want to miss this event for the world. He even claimed that he is all-set to prove himself against one of the greatest heavyweights in the history of the sweet science. Paul declared, “Time to put Iron Mike to sleep.” ‘The Problem Child’ made a prediction that it could be even bigger than the Super Bowl, which is considered to be the biggest ever.
