Jake Paul's manager dismisses claims of a rule change for the upcoming fight against Mike Tyson and anticipates it to be the most-watched boxing event in modern history.
Jake Paul 's manager has taken aim at 'haters' and rubbished claims surrounding a major rule change for his client's upcoming fight against Mike Tyson . The bout will be part of the first-ever live boxing card shown by streaming giants Netflix , with the show set to be available for free for existing subscribers to the platform. There are reports that the bout's organisers are hoping to have the bout sanctioned by the Texas boxing commission, which would allow it to be a professional fight.
The 40-year-old claimed that the bout would effectively be a sparring contest, with both fighters wearing headguards and 18oz gloves. Since his retirement from professional boxing in 2005 after a sixth-round defeat to American fighter Kevin McBride, 57-year-old Tyson has only stepped into the ring once, taking on Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition bout in November 2020
