Tyson insisted on special rules: what has changed in the format of the fight with Paul.
Mike Tyson returns to the ring for a fight with Jake Paul
On November 16, the legendary Mike Tyson, former undisputed heavyweight champion, will return to the ring. He will face Jake Paul, a former vlogger who became a boxer. This fight will be official, and the results will be recorded in the professional records of the athletes. The show will start at 3:00 AM Kyiv Time, and the main fight is expected no earlier than 5:00 AM. The rounds will last two minutes each.
The announcement of this fight was shocking to many. Jake Paul, who previously fought former MMA fighters, will now compete against a boxing legend. Even more sensational is that the fight will be broadcast on Netflix - this is the first time a boxing match of this magnitude will be shown on this platform.
Both boxers will enter the ring without helmets and with traditional gloves. The fight is scheduled for eight rounds. The question of the purpose of this fight remains open: is it just a commercial project for both athletes?
The boxers did not receive a positive reaction from the boxing community due to concerns about Tyson's health, as he is 58 years old and has health issues. Tyson himself has spoken about his ailments, including a flare-up of an ulcer.
Tyson Fury also commented on this event, calling it fantastic. He emphasized that such fights provoke envy among those who do not benefit from it.
Jake Paul is considered the favorite of the fight due to his youth and fitness. He can be bet on with odds of 1.45, while Tyson's odds are 2.80. However, many questions remain unanswered: how seriously will the opponents box, and can Tyson show his former level.
