Jake Paul will fight former world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson in Texas this summer.
The exhibition bout will see former YouTube star Paul take on the 57-year-old Tyson, one of heavyweight boxing’s most legendary figures, on July 20.
The fight will be shown live on Netflix pay-per-view and Tyson vowed to “finish” the American Paul, who is 30 years his junior. It will be staged at the 80,000-seat capacity AT&T Stadium in Arlington, home of NFL’s the Dallas Cowboys.
“I’m very much looking forward to stepping into the ring with Jake Paul,” Tyson said. “He’s grown significantly as a boxer over the years, so it will be a lot of fun to see what the will and ambition of a ‘kid’ can do with the experience and aptitude of a GOAT.
“It’s a full circle moment that will be beyond thrilling to watch; as I started him on his boxing journey on the undercard of my fight with Roy Jones and now I plan to finish him.”
