The highly anticipated exhibition fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will occur on Friday, Nov. 15, at the iconic AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The fight, a global event, will be available to stream on Netflix, ensuring that fans from all corners of the world can watch it live.
The boxing match between the YouTuber-turned-boxer and the former heavyweight champion was pushed to a later date due to a health emergency Tyson experienced. On May 26, Tyson had an ulcer flare-up that required immediate medical attention, leading to the postponement of the fight. Despite the setback, both parties have confirmed the fight will still occur.
According to World Boxing News, Paul's determination to fight in November has reportedly even led him to line up a backup opponent in serious contenders such as Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in case Tyson is unable to participate in the bout.
Here is the latest information concerning the Tyson-Paul fight:
