Boxing fans, brace yourselves! 🥊 An epic showdown is coming this July as the legendary \"Iron Mike\" Tyson steps back into the ring to face off against YouTube sensation turned prizefighter Jake Paul. 😱
On July 20, at the massive 80,000-seat AT&T Stadium in Arlington, these two fighters will clash in a sanctioned, professional bout that will count on both men's records. This isn't just an exhibition—it's the real deal! 💯
Tyson, who will be 58, hasn't fought professionally since his 2020 exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr., which ended in a draw. Now, he's ready to show the world he still has what it takes. 🔥
Jake Paul, 27, with a record of 9-1 (6 KOs), is eager to make his mark by taking on one of boxing's most feared heavyweights. The fight promoter, Nakisa Bidarian, confirmed, \"Mike Tyson and Jake Paul signed on to fight each other with the desire to do so in a sanctioned professional fight that would have a definitive outcome.\" 📝
This match marks the biggest age gap between fighters in professional boxing history—31 years! Talk about breaking records! 📈
The fight will be streamed live on Netflix, so you won't miss a second of the action. 🎥
But that's not all! The undercard features an electrifying rematch between lightweight champion Katie Taylor and seven-division champ Amanda Serrano. Their first bout in April 2022 was a nail-biter, with Taylor taking the win by split decision. 🥇
