Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight live updates

Originally scheduled for the summer but postponed due to health concerns with Tyson, the date has finally arrived for Kid Dynamite to don the gloves professionally again. Although Tyson has fought exhibition fights in the years since his official retirement in 2005, this fight is recognized as a professional boxing match, marking it as the 59th of his career, almost 40 years after his first as a teenager.

In the other corner is Jake Paul, the actor turned YouTuber turned boxer who has had a meteoric start to his own professional career. Paul originally started boxing as part of the YouTuber boxing match trend, but is one of those who turned professional and turned the sport into a career. He has a strong record of 10-1 in his young career, and although he will have to make the jump to heavyweight to fight Tyson, he is somewhat feared for the youth and energy, as well as the power he has in one punch -out entails. the table.

Many verbal jabs have already been thrown back and forth between the two camps, setting up the kind of drama that can only be good for a fight that will be hosted worldwide and streamed live on Netflix, with plenty of build-up and heightened expectations as two of the biggest boxers of recent times click together. Furthermore, there was controversy and drama at the weigh-in, when Tyson reacted badly to his younger opponent getting in his face and started a small brawl with a punch to Paul’s face.

While ‘Iron Mike’ has by far the most impressive credentials in boxing, with an undisputed heavyweight champion title in his past and 50 wins in his career, his age and rustiness are by far the biggest question mark. Paul is only 27 compared to Tyson’s 58, much fresher and probably faster, more energetic and with many more reps on the big stage in the recent past.

Many are predicting that Tyson won’t be able to match his younger opponent in this big match in Texas, but Tyson pointed out that they don’t call him the worst man on the planet for nothing. Be that as it may, with so many eyes on this match, the least that can be expected from Tyson vs Paul is a lot of drama and spectacle.
