The fight between 27-year-old YouTuber turned professional boxer Jake Paul and 57-year-old icon Mike Tyson is scheduled for July 20. According to an official statement posted on Paul’s MVP Promotions’ X account, Netflix will livestream the event.

Tyson’s comeback in the ring has captured the interest of people all around the world, especially considering that he was out of the boxing world for almost twenty years. The legendary boxer’s last professional fight took place in June 2005, ending in a loss to Kevin McBride just before Tyson declared his retirement.

Tyson may make an official comeback to competitive boxing following his retirement with his upcoming contest against Paul, despite his brief return for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Junior in November 2020.
