Renowned boxer Jake Paul is gearing up to battle former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson in an official boxing match set to take place on Saturday, July 20, 2024, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Additionally, on Netflix, viewers can catch super lightweight champion Katie Taylor in a rematch against unified featherweight titleholder Amanda Serrano in a co-main event.
Both sets of fighters will participate in the “Paul vs. Tyson” kickoff press conference on Monday afternoon (May 13, 2024) at 5:30 p.m. ET. The event will be live-streamed from the Apollo Theater in New York City. The fighters will square off at the press conference’s conclusion at “The Empire State,” with an anticipated mixed reaction from the audience towards Jake Paul.
Sharing his thoughts on the upcoming bout, Jake Paul remarked, “It’s incredible to consider the attention I garnered by knocking out Nate Robinson in my second professional fight on Mike Tyson’s undercard. Now, I am taking on Tyson himself to test if I have what it takes to conquer one of boxing’s most renowned and legendary fighters. My aspiration is to claim a world championship, and facing off against the greatest heavyweight champion ever presents me with an opportunity to validate myself against the most formidable boxer of all time.”
