Jake Paul wants a “pro fight” with Mike Tyson, ending any confusion about their upcoming bout.
Last week, Tyson appeared on Sean Hannity’s show and implied that the fight would be an exhibition.
“This is called an exhibition, but if you look up exhibition you will not see any of the rules will be fighting under. This is a fight’ said Tyson.
On Wednesday, Paul appeared on Jesse Watters Primetime on Fox News and said he wants a “pro fight” against Tyson with “full face shots”. Paul told Waters he had sent an application to the Texas Commission in hopes that they would sanction the fight as a professional fight.

“Mike and I want this to be a pro fight, full face shots. We’re submitting that request to the commission. It’s an all-out war.”
While on Fox News, Paul sent an invitation to Donald Trump to attend the fight.
“And Trump, if you’re watching this, this is an invite. I know you used to promote Tyson, so I’d love to have you at the fight. Vivek came to my other fight. And, of course, the silver fox, Barron Trump. So, Donny, pull up, we’ve got tickets for you.”
While Jake is vying for a pro fight, it’s still unclear if the Texas commission would sanction a 57-year-old fighter to fight someone 30 years younger than him.
