In a second press conference to promote the fight, it was confirmed that the highly anticipated fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will go ahead on Friday, November 15, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The exhibition match, titled “The Baddest Man on the Planet,” will be streamed on Netflix.
“It’s happening,” Tyson said at Fanatic Fest in New York City on Aug. 18. “We’re all here. … I’m ready. I’m very ready. I had a little setback, I got sick, but I feel good.”
Paul, a YouTuber-turned-boxer, improved his record to 10-1 (seven KOs) after a July 21 victory in Florida. The win came after a fight against bare-knuckle fighter Mike Perry, replacing the original match between Paul and Tyson. On the other hand, Tyson, a former heavyweight champion, has a 50-win, six-loss record in his professional career.
Paul has focused on fighting the former heavyweight champion after it was rescheduled due to a health emergency experienced by the boxing legend. Despite the setback, Tyson confirmed that his doctors had cleared him to resume training and had been doing so for three weeks.
