play

Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson will take on YouTuber and professional boxer Jake Paul in a unique heavyweight megafight on Friday night in Arlington, Texas. This event, streaming on Netflix, is a first for boxing and is just over 48 hours away.

The boxing card for the Netflix mega boxing event will feature seven fights, including a highly anticipated rematch between undisputed super lightweight champion Katie Taylor and unified featherweight champion Amanda Serrano. This will be their second meeting in the ring, following a sell-out main event at Madison Square Garden in 2022 in which Taylor won by a narrow split decision. This matchup adds an exciting element to the card.

As the days go by, the anticipation and excitement for the Paul Tyson boxing event continues to grow. With only 48 hours left, here are the latest predictions for the fight:

Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul predictions

Bermane Stiverne: Mike Tyson

Striverne tells Baccart.net and DAZN writes: “When he fought Roy Jones Jr. he was 54 years old and he looked good. So if this is the same Mike Tyson for this fight then I don't think it will last longer than six rounds.” In the first half of the fight the younger man will try to assert himself, but I see how Mike is using his body already at the beginning of the fight he still has the ambition to fight and has bad intentions. “He's still hitting the pads hard, and it's not like he's fighting anyone who's a real opponent, and I don't see it. Anyway, he's losing that fight to Jake Paul.”

Roy Jones Jr: Mike Tyson

Roy Jones Jr tells talkSPORTS: “Well I like Mike, probably by choice, but if he decides to go out and get him out I think he can do it.”

Tyson Fury: Mike Tyson

Tyson Fury tells MMA Hour: “If Mike Tyson beats someone, I don’t care if he’s 90, he’s going to knock them out, isn’t he? He is Iron Mike Tyson, the evilest man on the planet. Jake Paul is very experienced now and has had a lot of fights but of course I have to back Mike Tyson for the knockout as he always has my back.”

Bleacher Report: It's going to be a circus

Lucky Ngamwajasat writes: “Give credit to Paul, Tyson and MVP Promotions for getting me and many other fight fans to watch this sideshow. And give Paul credit for finding ways to entertain us while stacking the deck in his favor. Whether that's the case.” against former NBA player Nate Robinson or former UFC champions Tyrone Woodley and Anderson Silva, The Problem Child seemingly had the edge in all of these duels: They want a prediction: It's going to be a circus and I'm not going to take it seriously whatever happens, and neither should anyone watching. But it should be fun, it will get people talking and I'm sure it will lead to another mega money fight for Paul down the line maybe a rematch.
