One of the biggest combat attractions of the year will finally unfold later tonight (Fri., Nov. 15, 2024) LIVE on Netflix from inside AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Tex., as the legendary Mike Tyson returns to the squared circle for an eight-round clash with social media superstar Jake Paul.
While many people are still calling this a cash grab for Paul, the main event matchup might be much closer than expected. That’s because Tyson has turned back the clock for this camp and looks to be an incredible shape. More importantly, the former heavyweight champion of the world appears to be mentally prepared to destroy Paul every second of this fight.
Don’t forget, Tyson slapped the smile off Paul’s face during Thursday’s weigh ins after “Problem Child” stepped on his foot. Imagine what Tyson will do when Paul lands his first punch on Friday night.
Luckily, Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) and Netflix have stacked a solid card around Paul vs. Tyson. This includes a co-main event rematch between women’s greats Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, as well as a showcase title defense by WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios. It will be an incredible Friday night for boxing fans and anyone who has Netflix looking to stay home.
