Jake Paul expects his fight with ‘Iron’ Mike Tyson to be the most watched in combat sports history. In fact, ‘The Problem Child’ anticipates that “hundreds of millions” will tune in.

Paul’s scrap with the former unified heavyweight world champion has received its fair share of criticism, most of it surrounding the 30+ year age gap between the YouTuber and his iconic opposition. Still, the event is expected the emanate from a sold-out AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas with one of the most stacked lineups of the year.

Speaking with TMZ Sports, Paul was asked bout the potential viewership numbers for his showdown with ‘Kid Dynamite.’

“The global viewership could be in the hundreds of millions like you said,” said Paul. “It’s wild. It doesn’t make any sense, but the fact that Netflix is a part of this is the perfect piece of the puzzle. It makes this trifecta of Netflix’s audience, my audience, and Mike Tyson’s audience” (h/t MMA Mania).

In a first for the streaming giant, Netflix will broadcast the Paul vs. Tyson card live at no additional charge to its existing 260 million subscribers around the world, making Paul’s prediction a real possibility.

In addition to the massive main event, fight fans will also see one of the most anticipated rematches in boxing history as Katie Taylor runs back her instant classic with Amanda Serrano. Taylor came out on top in their April 2022 meeting at Madison Square Garden, scoring a split decision victory after 10 entertaining rounds of action.

The first time around, Taylor successfully defended her undisputed lightweight world championship. This time, she’ll put her undisputed super lightweight title on the line eight months after claiming the crown from Chantelle Cameron.

Also on the docket is Darren Till’s professional boxing debut. After spending seven years under the UFC banner, ‘The Gorilla’ has busted out of his cage and is ready to test his skills in the sweet science against legendary pugilist Julio César Chávez Jr.

Ex-UFC sensation ‘Rowdy’ Ronda Rousey penning the script for her own Netflix biopic

Ronda Rousey’s life story is about to get the big screen treatment. Well, maybe not the big screen, but…

Ronda Rousey’s life story is about to get the big screen treatment.

Well, maybe not the big screen, but fans of the women’s MMA pioneer will be excited to hear that the UFC icon turned WWE Superstar will pen the script for her own biopic. Per a report from Deadline, Netflix closed a deal to distribute a film based on Rousey’s two memoirs My Fight/Your Fight and Our Fight.

Chernin Entertainment, best known for the Planet of the Apes series, The Greatest Showman, and Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy, is set to produce the picture.

This is the second time that Rousey’s story has been optioned. Paramount snagged the rights following the release of her first book in 2015, but let the rights lapse, allowing the streaming giant to step in and snatch them up — with one notable caveat: that she be allowed to write the script alongside her sister Maria Burns Ortiz.

According to the report, Rousey cranked out the screenplay in a week and left everyone who read it “blown away” by the quality of her work.

Perhaps there truly is nothing Ronda Rousey can’t do.

While she will write the script, Ronda Rousey will not play herself in the Netflix biopic

Rousey is no stranger to the silver screen, having appeared in a slew of films at the height of her popularity inside the Octagon.

She featured alongside Sylvester Stallone and Jason Statham in The Expendables 3 and landed the role of a villain in Fast & The Furious 7. She also co-starred in Mile 22 with Mark Wahlberg and The Walking Dead’s Lauren Cohen.

However, this time around, Ronda Rousey will not be stepping in front of the cameras. Who lands the leading role remains to be seen, but casting is expected to begin within the next few months.

Trailer For ‘LA Cage’ Netflix MMA Series feat. Jon Jones & GSP

A new upcoming MMA TV series is coming to Netflix on November 8 with the French release, “LA CAGE”, arriving on the streaming service.

In this Rocky-like rise, he’s given an opportunity to take that next big step in his career which will lead to bigger and better things.

All five episodes of the series are directed by Franck Gastambide who also stars in the series, appearing to play the role of Boomer’s coach.

However, the real element that is going to get MMA fans talking is the inclusion of some of the biggest names in the sport today.

The trailer that has been released for La Cage shows that no expense has been spared to make this a major release for fight fans. It features three major promotions in the UFC, KSW and French promotion ARES, all with fight scenes that take place at live events.

Also, the likes of Jon Jones, Ciryl Gane and Georges St-Pierre are all playing themselves. St-Pierre would appear to be the most relevant of the three as the former two-weight UFC champion ends up becoming a part of the team as a huge inspiration to the young fighter.

La Cage’s IMDB page also lists several other notable names from the French MMA scene as cast members, including the UFC’s Taylor Lapilus and Morgan Charriere, PFL’s Abdoul Abdouraguimov, KSW’s Salahdine Parnasse and ONE Championship’s Anissa Meksen.

Gane’s involvement in the series would appear to be the reason that he declined fighting Tom Aspinall for the interim heavyweight title at UFC 304 in July.

‘The Spider’ has his eyes set on gold once again – Oscar gold that is.

Ahead of his scheduled co-main event meeting with Derek Brunson at UFC 208 live on pay-per-view (PPV) next month (Sat. February 11, 2017), Anderson Silva recently spoke to Combate (via Bloody Elbow) and revealed that he has aspirations to take the film industry by storm next. The former UFC middleweight king said he has a few auditions lined up in Hollywood, and has even sold a script for a TV show to Netflix:

“My biggest dream, right now, is to maybe win an Oscar,” Silva said. “I got some auditions to do in Hollywood. I wrote a script for a series and Netflix bought it, thank God. I got other projects apart from fighting. It was always my dream to become an action movie actor. I have been studying that for a while and now things are finally happening.”

When prodded for more information regarding his script Silva admitted the show has yet to be named, but he has been working on the project for quite some time now while simultaneously juggling the life of a professional athlete:

“It’s an action show, but it has nothing to do with fighting,” Silva said. “It doesn’t have a name yet, we’re still adapting it to script and we’ll settle on a name once it’s all done. I had to stop for awhile, but I’m always working on it, you know, it’s annoying. I’m always writing, putting ideas on paper, before I go to bed and after I wake up.”

After conquering the UFC’s middleweight division for seven years during his heyday, could Silva be the next big thing for the action film industry following the conclusion of his mixed martial arts (MMA) career?
