Mike Tyson is set to make a ring comeback, taking on Jake Paul in a boxing match scheduled for July 20 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the home of the Dallas Cowboys. Despite Jake Paul expressing a desire to challenge genuine boxers for a chance at a world title, he will face the long-retired Tyson (56-6, 44 KOs), a former heavyweight champion regarded as one of the best in boxing history. Notably, Joe Rogan has favored the 55-year-old Tyson to defeat Jake Paul.

In July 2020, he engaged in an eight-round exhibition against Roy Jones Jr., and although the bout surpassed expectations, there was no widespread demand for additional matches.
