Jake Paul and Mike Tyson prepare for boxing match in Texas with roles reversed
Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are set to fight in Arlington, Texas, marking Tyson's first professional bout in nearly 20 years. The match will be streamed on Netflix, reaching over 280 million subscribers, rather than through traditional pay-per-view. Tyson, 58, and Paul, 27, have a complicated relationship, with Tyson recently slapping Paul during a faceoff. Tyson has lost 26 pounds while recovering from a stomach ulcer, and both fighters are preparing for an eight-round match with modified rules to ensure safety. Paul is expected to earn $40 million, while Tyson will receive $20 million. The event will also feature a co-main event between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, which is anticipated to be a significant moment for women's boxing.
