The former lineal heavyweight champion, 58, will box a social media star 31 years younger than him Friday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Mike Tyson is set for his first sanctioned fight since 2005 as the 58-year-old former heavyweight champion takes on much younger YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in Texas.
Had this bout been sanctioned two decades ago, ignoring for a moment that the 27-year-old Paul would still have been an infant, there would be little doubt about the victor.
The huge bout has been branded very controversial, with 58-year-old legendary boxer Tyson taking on Paul, who is 31 years his junior, in what will be an officially sanctioned professional fight.
