The much-awaited fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is set to take place on Friday, Nov. 15 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The exhibition bout, dubbed “The Baddest Man on the Planet,” will be available to stream on Netflix, marking a momentous occasion in the world of boxing.

Paul improved his record to 10-1 (seven KOs) after his July 21 victory in Florida. This victory came after a fight against bare-knuckle fighter Mike Perry, replacing the original match between Paul and Tyson. The referee stopped the Paul-Perry bout in Round 6, giving Paul the TKO. This win is Paul’s second victory in 2024.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer has shifted his focus to a fight against former heavyweight champion Tyson, after it was rescheduled due to a health emergency experienced by the boxing legend. Despite the setback, both boxers have confirmed the fight will still happen, a testament to their unwavering commitment. Both athletes have been sharing updates of their rigorous training on social media.
