Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul Boxing: Live stream and all you need to know

A dramatic weigh-in slap between boxing legend Mike Tyson and YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has escalated excitement for their upcoming showdown. This highly anticipated event features a clash of generations, with the 58-year-old Tyson stepping back into the ring against 27-year-old Paul, a former Disney star turned boxing sensation.

Drama at Weigh-In

The buzz surrounding the fight reached new heights when Tyson shocked onlookers at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, by slapping Paul during their weigh-in. This unexpected moment quickly went viral on social media, building even more anticipation for the fight itself.

Tyson's Comeback

Mike Tyson, who retired in 2005 after a celebrated career, will return to the ring nearly 19 years later. Known for his knockout power and becoming the youngest heavyweight champion at 20, Tyson's legendary career includes a 50-6 record, with 44 of those victories coming by knockout. Although he fought Roy Jones Jr. in a 2020 exhibition match, this fight against Jake Paul is his first official bout since retirement.

Jake Paul’s Path to Boxing

Jake Paul, who transitioned from a YouTube career to boxing, has created his own path in the sport. Since turning pro in 2020, Paul has remained undefeated in his first six fights, before suffering his first loss to Tommy Fury in February 2023. The fight with Tyson is a major milestone in his quest to prove himself as a legitimate force in boxing.

Criticism of the Matchup

The 31-year age difference between the fighters has sparked debate. Tyson, who is well past his prime, faces concerns over his health, especially following a medical scare earlier this year. Critics question whether Tyson can still compete at a high level, given his age and physical limitations, despite the fight being tailored with special rules.
