Jake Paul has announced that he will be taking on former boxing heavyweight champion Mike Tyson this summer. ‘The Problem Child’ has been one of the most talked about names in the sport of boxing ever since he made his professional debut in 2020.
Since then, he has attained a record of 9-1 and has fought some of the biggest names in the world of combat sports like Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz, and Tyron Woodley. While he has taken the route of a traditional up-and-coming boxer in his last two fights, Paul is now set to return to prize fighting with his next fight.
As announced recently, Jake Paul will return to the squared circle against Mike Tyson. The bout will take place at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on July 20. Unlike Paul’s previous few fights which were broadcasted on DAZN, this fight will be broadcast live on Netflix worldwide.

That said, further details on Paul vs. Tyson are yet to be revealed and it will be interesting to see how it plays out.

However, that did not seem to be the case at all when the fight started. Ryan Bourland looked extremely out of shape and underprepared as he failed to offer anything to concern Jake Paul. On the flip side, Paul imposed himself as soon as the fight started and continued to pile on pressure until the referee stepped in and brought a close to the fight.
With this, Paul took his professional record to 9-1 and now he is set to fight Mike Tyson. However, it is yet to be known if his fight against Tyson will be a pro fight or an exhibition.
