The boxing world is buzzing as Jake Paul and Mike Tyson prepare to face off this Friday, November 15, 2024, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The matchup pits 27-year-old internet personality and emerging boxer Jake Paul against 58-year-old boxing legend Mike Tyson, in a showdown that bridges generations. Initially set for July, the fight was delayed due to Tyson’s health issues, but both fighters have been training intensely and are ready to bring their best to the ring.
The fight, which will follow professional rules, features eight two-minute rounds with no headgear and 14-ounce gloves, setting the stage for potential knockouts. Paul, who holds a record of 10-1 since stepping into the boxing world in 2018, is known for his aggressive style and youth advantage. Tyson, who hasn’t competed professionally in nearly two decades, has nonetheless impressed fans with his power and speed during training sessions. The event, which will be streamed on Netflix, is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. ET, with ring walks around 10 p.m. ET, promising a night of high-stakes entertainment.
