Jakarta, Indonesia Sentinel –– Mike Tyson, the former World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight champion, has been making headlines again as he gears up for a high-profile fight against social media personality Jake Paul.
The bout, scheduled for November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, will be streamed on Netflix for its subscribers, according to MMA Fighting.
Originally slated for July, the fight was postponed after Tyson, now 58 years old, faced a medical emergency. With concerns over his age and overall health, Tyson has aimed to dispel doubts by sharing clips of his intense training sessions on social media.
In the videos, the boxer, famously known as “Iron Mike,” demonstrates his signature rapid-fire, powerful punches, a reminder of the ferocity that once dominated the boxing world.
Despite being away from professional boxing for nearly two decades since his knockout loss to Kevin McBride in June 2005, Tyson’s latest training regimen shows he still possesses incredible strength and agility.
The upcoming fight will mark his return to a major boxing event after his 2020 exhibition match against Roy Jones Jr., which ended without a decision after eight two-minute rounds.
Tyson’s fight with Jake Paul is generating significant buzz as fans and analysts alike question how the veteran will perform against the much younger Paul. Known for his powerful punches and aggressive style, Tyson’s return to the ring is expected to attract a global audience, as both he and Paul boast massive fanbases from traditional sports and social media.
The fight promises to be an unforgettable showdown, combining the nostalgia of Tyson’s legendary career with the contemporary excitement that Paul brings to the boxing world.
