Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are closing in on one of the biggest boxing events of 2024, with the ex-heavyweight champion and the YouTube sensation-turned-fighter set to take center stage on Netflix.
Tyson vs. Paul will be the main event on a fascinating fight card promoted by the streaming platform and Most Valuable Promotions, with a huge crowd anticipated at the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, AT&T Stadium. The bout came into question earlier this year, when Tyson dealt with an ulcer flare-up in May that required him to scale back training. However, the parties were able to agree to move the fight date from July 15 to November, giving fight fans the match they've been looking forward to.
The Netflix broadcast team will be led by Kate Scott, who will host the event. Two-time world champion boxer Andre Ward and Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr. will also provide their analysis throughout the event. Mauro Ranallo will handle the blow-by-blow commentary.
Paul (10-1) has primarily fought MMA fighters. “The Problem Child” lost against Tommy Fury but beat boxers Andre August and Ryan Bourland handily. Tyson (50-6) last fought professionally in 2005. The 58-year-old former world champion dealt with an ulcer issue that delayed this fight.
The co-main event will see a rematch between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, this time for undisputed super lightweight gold. The two competed in the 2022 Fight of the Year for Taylor's status as undisputed lightweight champion, which she won in a close contest.
Since that fight, Taylor (23-1) has gone 2-1, losing against Chantelle Cameron for super lightweight gold but beating her in a rematch last year. Serrano (47-2-1) has gone 5-0, becoming undisputed at featherweight while defying norms for women in boxing and competing in 12 three-minute boxing fights.
