The Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight is almost here.
Mike Tyson and Jake Paul meet in the ring Friday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in a showdown that could be the most-watched fight in boxing history.
The main card of the Tyson vs. Paul event will be televised on Netflix at 8 p.m. ET. It will have three fights before Tyson vs. Paul:
Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 2 rematch (10 rounds)
Mario Barrios vs. Abel Ramos (12 rounds)
Neeraj Goyat vs. Whindersson Nunes (6 rounds)
The Tyson vs. Paul main event walkout will likely not happen until 11:30 p.m.-12 a.m. ET due to the length of the previous fights.
Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson (50-6, 2 NC) hasn’t fought since an exhibition draw with legend Roy Jones Jr. on Nov. 28, 2020. The 58-year-old hasn’t had a professional fight in almost 20 years when he quit at the end of the sixth round against Kevin McBride on June 11, 2005.
Jake Paul (10-1) is coming off a sixth-round knockout win of BKFC star Mike Perry on July 20, 2024. He has won four fights in a row.
