Jake Paul v Mike Tyson: Fight details, full undercard and where to watch the fight as Tyson comes out of retirement to try and stop Jake Paul in his tracks

SATURDAY sees one of the most eagerly anticipated and controversial fights in recent history take place in Texas.

One of the most famous heavyweight boxers of all time, Mike Tyson, will take on Youtuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul, who has been trying to make a career for himself in the ‘sweet science’ for the last few years.

The former Disney Channel star Paul has been professionally boxing since 2020, with the majority of his opponents consisting of inexperienced fighters who are early in their boxing career or combat athletes transitioning disciplines, currently holding a record of 10-1 with seven knockouts.

El Gallo‘s (Paul’s fighting name, The Rooster) first fight against a fighter with more than four pro fights under his belt was in 2023 when he lost to Tommy Fury by a split decision in Saudi Arabia.

The Cleveland native’s last fight was against former UFC fighter Michael Perry, who had only ever professionally boxed once before, with Paul beating him by TKO after six rounds.

‘Iron Mike’ is next in line to go toe-to-toe against Paul, with his last professional bout coming in 2005, when he was forced to throw in the towel against Irishman Kevin McBride in round six.

Mike Tyson has got a career record of 50-6, with 44 knockouts, and many have questioned his decision to step back into the ring at the age of 58.

Once labelled ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’, he was the youngest heavyweight champion of the world at 20 years old and held the WBA, IBF and WBC world heavyweight titles during his career.

One of the most famous moments in Tyson’s career was his fight against Evander Holyfield when he bit Holyfield’s ear and spat out a mouthful of blood and flesh, he claimed that it was in response to repeated headbutts by his opponent.

Tyson did fight fellow boxing great Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition match in 2020, the fight ended in a split draw and Jake Paul coincidentally fought on the undercard that night, knocking out former NBA star Nate Robinson in the second round.
