Jake Paul is getting paid very well to fight Mike Tyson.
On November 15th, Paul will fight the boxing legend on Netflix in what is expected to be the most-watched fight of the year.
According to Paul, fighting the 58-year-old Tyson will give him experience for when he eventually fights for a boxing world championship.
“In this sport staying active is key and I’m on the path of world championship, I’ll do the money fights, I’ll knock out some legends but at the end of the day, I want the belt and that’s what I’m here to do.”
“I’m going to learn a lot through this fight and this training camp, so this is helping through my future fights.”
