How to watch Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson: Date, time, fight card & more ...

The forthcoming boxing extravaganza, Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson, may have caused controversy, but you know you’ll be watching like the rest of us. It’s been dubbed the battle of the generations, with boxing diehards siding with Iron Mike while the youthful Youtubing masses are likelier to cheer on Paul. The age difference between Tyson (58 years old) and Paul (27 years old) is the largest ever age gap in a professional boxing event, which makes this contest even more exciting.

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson will take place on Friday, November 15, at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, having been sanctioned as a professional bout by the Texas’ Licensing and Regulations Department in April. The encounter was initially scheduled for July 20 this year but was postponed due to Tyson's flare-up of an ulcer.

Several tweaks have been made to the usual professional boxing bout setup. Paul vs Tyson will consist of eight rounds, each of two minutes, with both fighters using heavier 14-ounce gloves rather than the 10-ounce gloves usually worn. The extra padding should make it more difficult for Paul or Tyson to produce a knockout. It may also minimise the chance of the fighters suffering cuts and swellings during the contest.

The fight marks ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson's first professional bout since he initially retired from the sport after a 2005 loss to Kevin McBride. Tyson, who remains the youngest fighter ever to capture the world heavyweight belt, which he did at age 20 in 1986, won 50 of his previous 58 professional wins, with 88% coming by stoppage. His fans will hope that the American boxing legend still has some of that immense punch power left in the locker.

Jake Paul, the undisputed king of marketing and hype, is taking part in only his 12th professional fight as he goes gunning for his biggest ring scalp. He’s compiled an impressive 10-1 record since first embarking on a career in the sport in 2018. The famous Youtuber has shown his punch power in recent bouts, stopping his last three opponents within the previous year, two wins within the opening round.
