A simulation of Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul predicts a devastating end of the fight in round two.
On Thursday the news broke that Mike Tyson will make a sensational return to the ring to take on Jake Paul.
The former heavyweight champion of the world, now 57 years old, will take on the YouTuber-turned-boxer on July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Paul, 30 years Tyson’s junior, recently extended his professional boxing record to 9-1 with a first-round victory over Ryan Bourland in Puerto Rico on March 2.
The official promo trailer can be viewed below.
The fight will be the main event of a card that will air on Netflix, officials told ESPN.
It will be the streaming giant’s first live combat sports broadcast and only its third live sporting event overall.
An AI simulation of the fight popped up on YouTube a few months ago, and the result is devastating.
It predicts that Paul is knocked out just 38 seconds into the second round, with the 27-year-old unable to get back to his feet after taking a brutal flurry of blows from Tyson.
MVP co-founder Nakisa Bidarian said in a statement: “Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson is a once-in-a-lifetime dream matchup and I anticipate it will be the most-watched boxing event in modern boxing history.”
Paul confirmed the event with a post on X with the caption: “Promotion promotion promotion if I’m being honest it don’t need that.. The biggest fight of the 21st century, in the biggest NFL stadium in the US, broadcast live, on the biggest streaming platform in the world…that’s the MVP way.
“My sights are set on becoming a world champion, and now I have a chance to prove myself against the greatest heavyweight champion of the world, the baddest man on the planet and the most dangerous boxer of all time. Time to put Iron Mike to sleep.”
