The bout is scheduled to take place on July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Texas and will be available to all Netflix subscribers. Additional information, including the co-main event and undercards, will be announced at a later date. It is being produced in a partnership between Netflix and Paul’s and Nakisa Bidarian’s Most Valuable Promotions (MVP).
If Mike Tyson will go in 100% in this fight? I will put my money on him. The thing is that this is exhibitions and maybe they are going to orchestrate how the ending will be, maybe a draw. But this totally unexpected though, but who can blame Tyson, it's million in the table for this fight and so he will have to bag it in as Jake Paul is one of the hottest commodity in exhibition fight.
Mike even at almost 60 is still very dangerous. He once the most feared boxer, as anyone he touches will simply go down even if Tyson is just about 5'8 and fighting bigger guys in the HW division.

I don't know much about Tyson's condition if he can still go the full fight, his last match was over three years ago, I'm sure there are a lot of changes in the body as we age its different when you're in training and you're in an actual fight, and Jake Paul is young and hungry since this is co-produced by Netflix I'm sure the subscription base will increase before the fight.
I'm waiting for the undercard so I can add it to my post, and I'm going to make sure that my subscription is good so we can watch this fight.
"If Mike Tyson will go in 100% in this fight? I will put my money on him.Even when Mike Tyson go full at 100%, I will not bet my money for him why, because Mike Tyson is a retired boxer, why Jake Paul the YouTuber is still active boxing.
Who do you think will win in this match?I think Mike Tyson will have a Knockout win against Jake Paul but that if Mike is still in a good condition in boxing just like Pacman. If he is still in that sports even on his retirements there is a higher chance that what I said above is gonna happen. Jake Paul surely prepared this fight long before it was being matched so this is really a good fight and he also has a higher chance of winning here because he is younger and I think the tale of the tape is in favor of this guy as well but not sure about a knockout against Tyson.
I'm not a big fan of such fights, and would never bought a ticket or pay-per-view for it, but at the same time, I'm not going to lie - I am curious how will that unfold.Lets wait to see exact rules they are going to have for this fight, but I know I wont bet against Tyson.
Mike might be old, but he still has a lot of power and explosiveness and surely won't be stepping into a ring to get a beating from some showbiz kid.
Paul's weight in recent fights was only around ~84 kg, while Tyson was at 100kg during the fight against Roy Jones Jr. in Nov 2020. I'd imagine Paul will probably want to bulk up a bit.
The current odds on Mike are x3.2, which I think could be a good bet to take.

I dont like Jake Paul and anything his is doing but I am sure he is going to make a big show from this event.
Draw is rear in boxing but not so unusual in fights like this ;)
If I'm not mistaken, Tyson is the underdog in this fight. So I do agree, odd makers knows that he is old already and maybe can't pull that trigger against a young Jake Paul.
That is the thing we appreciate with Jake Paul though, he make this whole exhibition matches his own, like Floyd and now was able to get one of the legends in boxing in Mike Tyson to box again.

Main reason for fights like this is quick collection of money, they are not going to allow Tyson to fight with normal boxing rules.
I remember his Tyson fight with Roy Jones Jr in 2020 and that was a split draw decision.
That exhibition fight with Roy Jones was rigged, every one from the referee to the judges colluded to make the fight a draw.Many fights in boxing are rigged, not just that one.
Seen and heard some former boxer, and they say that this might hurt Tyson's legacy. And what will add this to Jake Paul? I mean if he wanted to be a pro then fight a pro boxer simple as that, not ex-basketball player or ex-MMA. And now a old former boxer? What will he get?Jake Paul is just a social media guy and a youtuber, but he is not doing bad in boxing and he already have pro boxing fights.
Jake Paul is just a social media guy and a youtuber, but he is not doing bad in boxing and he already have pro boxing fights.
He has nine wins and only one defeat from Tommy Fury, younger brother of Tyson Fury.
I don't understand why these organizers keep bringing such boxing matches...first off is Tyson and Jake Paul in the same weight category, I don't it and secondly why try box Tyson when his past his prime and gotten slower..plus would you even celebrate if you beat an Old Tyson...
(...)
All I see are opportunists orself individuals trying to feed off his popularity , otherwise it would be bad to have his legendary status being tarnished by these small matches against the likes of Jake doing it for the numbers.... otherwise this will easily be a draw to keep both men's reputation intact.

That's the thing, we like tag people with permanent labels such as "you tuber" or "influencer" for convenience but the reality is, after long years of training boxing and having multiple boxing fights - maybe it's time to start viewing Paul as a boxer and demand from him to fight actual, active boxers.I don't understand why these organizers keep bringing such boxing matches...first off is Tyson and Jake Paul in the same weight category, I don't it and secondly why try box Tyson when his past his prime and gotten slower..plus would you even celebrate if you beat an Old Tyson...
Such fights will keep happening as long as there's demand for them.
That's Jake Paul's shtick - if he loses, he'll justify it by saying he lost to the legendary fighter from a higher weight class. If he wins, he'll declare himself the best in the world for beating legendary Iron Mike, disregarding 30 years gap and the fact he's long retired.(...)

I think Mike couldn't say no to the money he was offered and probably genuinely believes he could beat Paul.
and mike also missed the fight. his last fight was also an exhibition with Jones. i'm not sure how much he earn from that fight but this fight with Jake is probably bigger since its for all Netflix users.

Oh for sure it's going to be waaay bigger than fight with Jones Jr.
The Jones Jr. fight was not even properly hyped up, and was primarily aimed to the audience of boxing fans, many of whom disapprove of that kind of exhibition fights between long-retired boxers.
Say what you want about Jake Paul, but he can bring in a lot of views and can create proper hype, even if he does that in the wrong way. I have no doubt the money was a huge incentive for Tyson.

I watched a movie about him and he said he lost most of his money earned in his younger days, because of his manager Don King.
I don't think Tyson is doing that bad, but is probably not as rich as many would expect, so potential $20 mills is not something he could ignore.Not anymore.
I don't think Tyson is doing that bad, but is probably not as rich as many would expect, so potential $20 mills is not something he could ignore.Tyson earned a lot during his prime days in boxing, he had a net worth of over $200 million, but now his net worth has dropped considerable to just around $10 million.
Had it been Micheal Tyson was that young, not old(58 years old) I would have believed that we might been seeing Tyson knocking out Jake Paul, but here we are seeing Tyson at his old age to fight a young fella at his prime that wants to make history for himself. Anyway, the fight is for the money because in the real sense, I wouldn't advise an old man(Micheal Tyson) to fight a young vibrant guy like Jake Paul to expect a winWho do you think will win in this match?I think Mike Tyson will have a Knockout win against Jake Paul but that if Mike is still in a good condition in boxing just like Pacman. If he is still in that sports even on his retirements there is a higher chance that what I said above is gonna happen.

Is it confirmed already that Mike Tyson is getting 20 millions for that fight? That is really a lot. I saw that there will be no PPV sales for this event. So the promotion isnt earning a lot. For some reason it can be considered as a free to watch fight, as it will be available for all those who have Netflix active subscription. I doubt that Jake Paul or Mike Tyson will get a % from subscription sales, because there are active and those who would buy subscription, and there is no specific promocode. Hard to tell who would buy subscription only to watch, or who will be buy it to watch movies or tv-series.
I have searched in google for Jake Paul previous fight rewards, and they were 1-5 millions for each fight. I believe there would be also fight bonuses later. But not 20 millions for a fight. For the previous exhibition fight, Mike Tyson earned 10 million for a fight against Roy Jones Jr. Jake Paul is a «smaller boxing start», so there is no way Mike would get 20 million this time.

Not sure about the $20 million, can you share the link please? I think there will still be PPV here. If you are a Netflix subscribers then you don't have to pay. But if you are not then you have to purchase it one time. I think that's from what I understand.I have searched in google for Jake Paul previous fight rewards, and they were 1-5 millions for each fight. I believe there would be also fight bonuses later.

It's because Jake has a promotional company name MVP and most of his fights are being produce under his own money. So he might have to get some as well, but it's not as big as what we have thought. But still, from a obscure Youtuber to now making millions easy in just one fight is already a big accomplishment for him.
Fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is now officially going to be sanctioned as professional fight and it will count on both fighter records!
Most people expected this to be exhibition fight without judges and with draw possibility because only knockout would count as a win, but Tyson must be prepared very well for this fight.
We are going to have fight with 8 rounds that are two-minute long, so someone could win the fight on points.
Jake Paul is heavy favorite, but odds on Tyson are looking so good:

I think if they really fight, but not perform like actors, then 2 minutes will be enough for this fight. I remember that Mike Tyson style was always aggressive. Not many of his fights went full distance. If he knocked out his opponent, then that happened in first part of the fight. I have watched Jake and Logan Paul fights previously, and I think that Jake will jump on a Mike like a hurricane like his brother Logan jumped on Floyd Mayweather in the very start of their fight. And Mike will welcome Jake with his counterpunch.
I'll also recommend that, and his team knows that Tyson still has the power, but that power cannot keep up after round 5 because age will come into play. If Paul is still good past the fifth round, then he has a good chance because he has the youth to last the fight.I think if they really fight, but not perform like actors, then 2 minutes will be enough for this fight.

Aging is a thing though. There's a reason athletes retire. Mike Tyson at 58 is not even remotely the same as Mike Tyson at his prime. Jake Paul knows that, that's why he made this fight happen.
I think pressuring hard and swarming Jake with punches from the first minute could be a good game plan for Tyson, not the other way around. He still has a lot of power, but he must be lacking in stamina at his age.

I agree that if Tyson wants to win then he should KO Paul in the first three rounds at least because the longer the fight goes on, the riskier it is for Mike Tyson because of the youth advantage of Paul who has the stamina to go the distance.

I'm 100% sure that Jake Paul is aware of this and he will try to avoid slugging out in the early rounds, that's Mike Tyson's only chance to win, Jake Paul has proven himself to last the whole fight and win via a decision so if in the first three rounds he cannot hurt Jake I doubt if he can beat Jake in the latter rounds, Mike's power should play out in the early rounds and Jake Paul's stamina will play out in the latter rounds so this fight is very predictable.
Anything can happen. I see 3 scenariosWell, whatever happens with the 3 scenarios that you shared, one thing is for sure.
1) Jake will start running and making Mike tired. He will try to use his age advantage. In late rounds he will do some damage to slowed Mike. Probably Mike will have a cut. And it will be a Jake winning by split decision
2) Jake will start with furious actions from very start. His goal will be to surprise Mike, who hasnt been in real fight for years. With enough unaswered punches, Jake could take some rounds (especially if he manages to daze Mike), and then survive till the end and win by decision.
3) Mike, as more experienced, will block avoid and wait, and later land either a body punch and win by TKO, or will win by TKO after Jake would had two knockdowns in one rounds. I really doubt that ref will allow a clear knockout, and Jake would be so silly to walk with hands down against such a striker.
"If Mike Tyson will go in 100% in this fight? I will put my money on him.I think Mike Tyson will go his 100% into his fight against Jake Paul, but both strengths wouldn't be the same when compared with one another. You know why?

Exactly. There's a reason athletes retire, and there's a reason they retire early (say around late 30s, or early 40s, depending on the sport).
I have no doubts Mike will give his 100%, but his 100% might not be enough.
I wouldn't worry about his strength, as you can keep it high till old age, but he will be lacking in dynamics, agility and stamina. So he'll have to get Jake early, bu surprise. Any passing minute will work in Jake's favour.

that's also true. a fighter may still think he is good to fight but his body is just not up for it anymore. Mike seem pressure to make this fight to happen since he already sign up for it. but this is also the reason why the rules were very optimized for him. maybe he could fight but don't expect him to win.
just a few hours ago, he had medical emergency which it was said he has ulcer or something like that.

It will not be, because Netflix is the main sponsor of the fight, he's going to fight Jake Paul to that "endangering his life" for the sponsors making a lot of money from the fight. That will be bullshit for him to risk his life to get us entertained in the hands of Jake Paul

Fight is postponed because of the medical issues with Mike Tyson. I think everyone will agree that this fight shouldn't be happening in the first place as Mike Tyson is old already and it really doesn't make sense.

If the reports are true, is not something very serious, he was just advised against hard training for a few weeks. But then again, I can't imagine any serious doctor would give him the green light to take up a boxing fight at his age.
Also, he allegedly made this statement: "My body is in better overall shape than it has been since the 1990s, and I will be back to my full training schedule soon". I think this shows he might be in denial about his age and abilities and refuses to acknowledge that he will never be in the same shape as when he was young and in his prime.

its all over the news that fight may really be cancelled.It would be a huge disappointment if the fight gets cancelled because we have been hyping up this fight for a while now, it will not be good that the fight has to be canceled or Mike replaced although the reason is good.

If Mike Tyson can't hurt Jake Paul in the first round then i think the former will be in big trouble. This is a risky fight for Mike Tyson as he is old and can't elude the punches that Paul will throw.
This fight will push as planned because of the backing of Netflix if i'm right.
the old man was stressed and being pushed to train hard. if the old men are to answer whether they wanna see Mike fight, they would likely say Yes too as long as he fight someone his age as well.
but Jake Paul being 27, this will not be good for the old man. he will be crushed actually. if the younger generation are to answer whether they wanna see Logan vs Jake, they may also say Yes.
the young ones probably are not the fans of Mike which this is still a good option for Netflix.

Although this is for the pure fun of it and making tons of money for him as this could be his biggest paycheck. Anyhow, it will be scheduled on a new date. Hopefully Mike will be cleared and healthy.
Tyson will crush him if the fight happens.
I think it is not a "cancel" but just postponed. I do not have the exact data or information (just like anyone else) but some news are saying cancelled and some are saying postponed. I do hope that it is postponed and not cancelled because we have already been objected to a lot of marketing, so it would be quite entertaining to at least see the fight. If for nothing else, it would have been a quite good thing to see Mike Tyson in the ring again, he did had a small fight recently, but I would love to see him with a much bigger marketing budget, and a lot of viewers as well. In the end, I think they will find a date that would work for him (hopefully).
I don't see the fights been cancelled as a disappointment, but rather as a good thing and action taking to protect ones health. Because it won't be okay to bring Mike Tyson health on the line for us to get entertained. However, Netflix knows the right decision to take this, whether to get a replacement for Mike Tyson or push the fight forward.its all over the news that fight may really be cancelled.It would be a huge disappointment if the fight gets cancelled because we have been hyping up this fight for a while now, it will not be good that the fight has to be canceled or Mike replaced although the reason is good.
It is better that the fight gets pushed forward than for another fighter to replace Mike on the ring.

(...) it may look like a short notice replacement but Paul to replace Mike and Max Holloway to replace Connor is probably notified already maybe the time where they think a possibility.
Apparently they have found the replacement for Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is rumoured to face Mike Perry on 20th July.I see Mike Perry an advantage to Jake Paul though I could be wrong but that is what I thought right now given that Mike being a tough guy form bare knuckle can even handle every punches thrown at him by enemies and managed to win however wearing gloves might feel different but all the two has their own advantages maybe but I bet for Mike this time as he is much faster than the other.
I think most would be familiar with Mike Perry, but for those who aren't, he's a former MMA fighter who's now a bare-knuckle fighting superstar.
Given he's not retired as most of Paul's previous opponents, it could be a biggest challenge Paul has faced to date.

Where are you getting all that info from? Can you post links etc, or are you just speculating?
As far as the news go, McGregor has missed the press conference but that itself is not a reason to believe the fight will get canceled. And if it does, I don't think we'll see Max Holloway as a replacement. He's in too good position right now to be taking any fight on such short notice, unless they offered him a payday of his lifetime.
Mike Perry vs Jake?
Perry disappear from UFC without any attempt of title shot and then going to boxing against a heavyweight. Jake may not be the best in boxing but its not Perry's field.
Easy money for him though.
