Jake Paul suspended for 24 days following Mike Tyson fight

sportingnews.com

Jake Paul has been suspended for 24 days following his fight against Mike Tyson on November 15. This suspension is standard in boxing, as both fighters must adhere to mandatory rest periods set by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. The regulation requires three days of rest for each round fought. Since the match lasted eight rounds, both Paul and Tyson must rest for a total of 24 days. This rule is in place to protect fighters' health after taking significant physical impacts during a bout. Both fighters are eligible to return to the ring after their suspension ends on December 9. However, neither has a fight scheduled, and it is expected that Paul may not compete again until spring or summer 2025.
