How to watch Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson: date, time, fight card and more information

The upcoming Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson boxing spectacle may have caused controversy, but you know you'll be watching like the rest of us. It's billed as a “clash of the generations,” with boxing die-hards siding with Iron Mike while the youthful YouTube crowd tends to root for Paul. The age difference between Tyson (58 years old) and Paul (27 years old) is the largest age difference ever in a professional boxing event, making this contest even more exciting.

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson will take place on Friday, November 15th at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, after being approved as a professional bout by the Texas Licensing and Regulations Department in April. The meeting was originally scheduled for July 20 this year, but was postponed due to Tyson's recurrence of an ulcer.

Several tweaks have been made to the usual professional boxing match setup. Paul vs. Tyson will consist of eight rounds of two minutes each, with both fighters wearing heavier 14-ounce gloves instead of the 10-ounce gloves typically worn. The extra padding should make it harder for Paul or Tyson to score a knockout. This can also minimize the risk of fighters suffering cuts and swelling during competition.

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

Jake Paul, the undisputed king of marketing and hype, is competing in only his 12th professional fight and is gunning for his biggest scalp ring. Since beginning his career in the sport in 2018, he has compiled an impressive 10-1 record. The famous YouTuber has proven his striking power in recent fights, beating his last three opponents last year, two wins in the opening round.
