This week, Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will face off in a highly anticipated boxing match at the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium in Texas.
This will be Tyson’s first pro fight since 2005, while Paul has a 10-1 boxing record. Although the fight payouts haven’t been officially announced, Paul claimed he’d make $40 million for this fight. In comparison, Tyson is expected to earn around $20 million, according to Tyson’s friend, former UFC champion Henry Cejudo.
Tyson, 58, and YouTuber Paul, 27, originally planned to fight in July, but Tyson’s health issue forced them to reschedule. In late May, Tyson experienced a flare-up of an ulcer while on a flight, causing the delay. Now, unless there are any last-minute issues, the fight is set for Friday and will stream live on Netflix, a first for the platform.
