While Jake Paul’s girlfriend is standing by her man, she has some very real concerns about the YouTube star’s upcoming clash with the ‘Baddest Man on the Planet.’

On November 15, Paul will return to the squared circle for his 12 career fight as a professional boxer. This time, instead of taking on a past-their-prime MMA star, he’ll be facing one of the sport’s most dangerous knockout artists of all time, ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson.

Their showdown will emanate from the 80,000-seat AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and is expected to be one of the most-watched combat sports events of all time — due in large part to it airing on Netflix around the world at no extra charge for active subscribers.

Recently, Paul’s girlfriend and Olympic speed skater Jutta Leerdam shared her take on the highly anticipated scrap, and needless to say, she didn’t sound very confident about Paul’s chances against the former undisputed heavyweight world champion.

“I think you’re gonna win, but, he’s the competitor that is the most scary to me,” Leerdam told Paul on his YouTube channel. “Yeah, he’s scary. He’s just scary. He’s super strong, and I’ve seen videos of him. Of course he’s a little bit older now, but if you’ve ever been able to do that, your body remembers that. He has that power forever.”

Unlike everyone else, leerdam sees jake paul’s youth as a disadvantage

As it stands, Paul is a near 3-to-1 favorite to come out on top on a majority of sportsbooks, many of them believing Paul’s youth will be the difference-maker against the 58-year-old Tyson. However, Leerdam sees it a little differently.

“One thing about Jake is he’s been doing this for, like, 5 years … I think that is worse,” she continued. “I think that is worse than being, like, almost 60 and having your whole life [boxing]. You’re used to that power. You’ve trained so much. Your body will remember that. He’s had so many years of training.”

“Jake didn’t even train like 5 years ago. He didn’t do anything. He was partying. So that’s not even comparable. If someone started a few years ago with speed skating, they couldn’t even participate in the world championships. Like, that’s not even possible. So what Jake is doing is already crazy” (h/t MMA Mania).

Jake Paul Claims an Ayahuasca Trip Inspired His Decision to Face Mike Tyson

Jake Paul has shared how a spiritual experience led him to challenge boxing legend Mike Tyson. Iron’ Mike Tyson and ‘The Problem Child’ are set for a heavyweight boxing fight on November 15 and will be streamed on Netflix. This matchup might have never been made if it wasn’t for a fateful Ayahuasca trip Paul experienced.

Jake Paul and Ayahuasca

Ayahuasca is a powerful psychedelic brew that one can get access to in some areas of South America. With modern travelers, these shaman-led ceremonies can guide people to intense experiences where people can earn personal growth, healing from past traumas, or spiritual insights.

Jake Paul visited Costa Rica and partook in an Ayahuasca ceremony that helped him find the Mike Tyson boxing fight. He said:

“About two and a half years ago now, I went to Costa Rica for my first Ayahuasca ceremony. I wanted to uncover things about myself. One of the craziest things was the vision I had of me and Mike Tyson fighting as if it had already happened or something in future, or was going to happen, that’s the feeling that gave me. And, it showed me the millions of kids watching through their TV and their devices and it showed the butterfly effect of what that creates for the sport of boxing.”

It is now a reality. Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are set to fight live from AT&T Stadium in Texas, USA. ‘The Problem Child’ has made a professional boxing career by defeating former UFC fighters. ‘Iron’ Mike was a powerful striker and world champion during the 80s and 90s but has not fought professionally since 2005.

Mike Tyson is no stranger to mind-altering substances as well. He claims that psychedelics, particularly “magic mushrooms” containing psilocybin, have had a profound positive impact on his life and well-being. Tyson believes that using these substances has helped him overcome his addiction to cocaine and alcohol. He has even stated that he uses psychedelic mushrooms during his training sessions.

At 58 years old, fans are hoping Mike Tyson still has some of his strength left to take on the YouTuber.

Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson may be a lose-lose situation says former UFC heavyweight fighter Brendan Schaub. The athlete discussed the highly anticipated boxing matchup on his podcast.

Brendan Schaub on Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson

Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson is going down on November 15 and can be watched on Netflix. ‘Iron‘ Mike Tyson is a heavyweight boxing legend who collected world titles in the 80s and 90s with thunderous knockout power. His last professional bout was in 2005 and he is now 58 years old.

‘The Problems Child’ Jake Paul is 27 years old and has a list of boxing victories over former UFC fighters. In the ring, Paul has defeated fighters such as Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva, and Tyron Woodley, among others.

Former UFC heavyweight fighter Brendan Schaub said that Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson is not a great fight for anyone involved. On his podcast, he explained:

“I love Mike Tyson. Love Jake [Paul]. I hope it f*cking crushes, but for the life of me, I cannot figure out the upside to this. Let’s go through the scenario; if you’re Jake, so you knock him out—horrible dude. What the f*ck. You just beat up an old man.

“You get knocked out—told you this guy is a joke. You get beat up by a 58-year-old. The third scenario here is it goes to a decision. That’s a disaster and nobody’s coming back. That’s a disaster business-wise for Netflix, it’s a disaster for Jake Paul—went to a decision with 58-year-old Mike Tyson. The only person who wins is Mike Tyson. He can do no wrong. He gets knocked out—he’s 58 and gets paid.

“He beats Paul—f*ck yeah. All the old guys are like, ‘Yeah!’ Goes to a decision, Tyson wins. For Netflix, dude, I don’t know. Let’s say if Tyson wins, what’s next? What are you going to do? Mike Tyson vs. Logan Paul to avenge his brother? Tyson vs. KSI? That’s the business model.” [Ht MiddleEasy]

How much are Jake Paul and Mike Tyson Being Paid? To Split $80 Million Purse in November Blockbuster Bout

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will be paid handsomely for their November 15 professional boxing bout. The two heavyweight boxers will be taking money from ticket sales at the AT&T Stadium and the streaming service Netflix.

How much are Jake Paul and Mike Tyson Being Paid?

Jake Paul, the 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer, has hinted at a potential $40 million payout for the fight. During a promotional press conference, Paul stated his intention to “make 40 million dollars and knock out a legend.”

On the other hand, Mike Tyson, the 58-year-old former undisputed heavyweight champion, is reportedly set to earn at least $20 million for the bout. This figure was alluded to during Tyson’s appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in September 2024. Interestingly, Tyson suggested that he’s not fighting Paul for financial gain but rather to test himself.

The fight purse is estimated to be around $80 million, with reports suggesting a 50-50 split between the two fighters. This means Tyson could potentially earn up to $40 million, double the initial $20 million estimate. These figures are not officially confirmed and could be subject to change.

Jake Paul said:

“I’m here to make 40 million dollars and knock out a legend. I don’t give a f**k about anything else. And he’s the one that wanted it to be a pro fight. So he’s gonna get his a** knocked out real, real, for real on a real record. You’re gonna see on BoxRec — Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson, Jake Paul KOs Mike Tyson. I’m not here to do sh** besides make a bag.”

Jimmy Kimmel said to Mike Tyson:

“And I also want to ask you about the money ’cause I know you’re making a lot of money. I don’t know how much, whatever, at least 20 million dollars or something like that. He’s making a lot of money on this thing.”

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua Disagree on Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul: Power vs. Age Debate

When it comes to Mike Tyson’s chances against Jake Paul, former heavyweight world champions Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua…

When it comes to Mike Tyson’s chances against Jake Paul, former heavyweight world champions Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are split down the middle.

In a matter of days, the ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’ will return to the ring for the first time in nearly 20 years when he meets ‘The Problem Child’ inside the 80,000-seat AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Despite the scrutiny surrounding their fight — much of it related to the 31-year age gap between the two generational stars — the event is expected to be one of the most-watched in combat sports history.

While Paul is nearly a 3-to-1 favorite according to DraftKings, fighters and fans alike appear to be split when it comes to who will come out on top in The Lone Star State on Friday, November 15.

During a recent interview on the Jonathan Ross Show, Anthony Joshua suggested that Paul’s youth will be the difference-maker.

“He [Mike Tyson] is older now,” Joshua said. “I pray that he comes out healthy. I think Jake Paul [wins] because of youth. That’s the only thing” (h/t talkSPORT).

Tyson Fury disagrees with Anthony Joshua’s assessment

Tyson Fury, on the other hand, thinks that ‘Iron’ is still packing the same iconic power he used to score 44 knockouts during his legendary run from 1985 to 2005.

“If Mike Tyson hits anybody, I don’t care if he’s 90, he’s going to knock them out cold isn’t he?” Fury said during an appearance on The MMA Hour earlier this year. He’s ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson, the baddest man on the planet. Jake Paul is very experienced now and he’s had a lot of fights but obviously, I have to back Mike Tyson for the knockout as he always backs me.”

Considering Tyson Fury’s father named him after the former undisputed heavyweight world champion, it’s only right that the Brit backs him against Paul.

How do you see things playing out when Tyson goes toe-to-toe with the YouTube sensation?

‘I Was Nervous!’ Joe Rogan Explains to Snoop Dogg Why His Table Had to Expand for Mike Tyson

Talk show host Joe Rogan sat down with Snoop Dogg to explain how a meeting with Mike Tyson changed his studio. Iron’ Mike was so intimating around fight time, that Joe Rogan decided to make adjustments to his podcast booth.

Joe Rogan and Mike Tyson

Joe Rogan and Mike Tyson have met several and have done podcasts with one another. Rogan explained that he always found Tyson to be an interesting and kind person. But when he had has exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr. in 2020, he interviewed him and Tyson was an entirely different person.

As Joe Rogan explained to Snoop Dogg:

“Snoop, let me tell you a story, the reason why this table is this wide, this is true, this is the true story. When I first moved to Austin, I had a smaller table that I was gonna set up, and I was like, maybe I’ll be a little more intimate with the, with the guests. And then I had Mike on one time, and the first time I had him on, Mike was not training at all, and he said he can’t work out at all because it ignites his ego, and he just smokes a lot of weed, and we had a great conversation, it was real fun.

“And then he came back on again to promote the, to promote the Roy Jones fight. And he was jacked his giant muscles in his forearms, and he looked like he was ready to go. You could see the element that made him Mike Tyson. His prime had been, reignited, whatever. It was, like, now I need a wider table. I got, I was nervous in the room with him. You could tell he’s ready to go.”

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul

‘Iron’ Mike Tyson was one of the most feared strikers in history as he collected multiple world titles in heavyweight professional boxing during the 1980s and 90s. He has not fought professionally since 2005 but did have an exhibition boxing match against Jones Jr. in 2020 that ended in a draw.

Soon Mike Tyson will face the Social Media influencer Jake Paul in a professional boxing bout. This heavyweight matchup is booked for November 15 from the AT&T Stadium in Texas. This match can be enjoyed live on Netflix.

The Problem Child’ Jake Paul has created a lucrative career for himself in boxing by defeating former UFC athletes. His lone loss is against professional boxer Tommy Fury.
