Jake Paul will face Mike Tyson in his next boxing match, and the YouTuber has challenged the former heavyweight champion to try and break his “iron chin” in a statement he could regret
Jake Paul, the YouTube star turned boxer, has bravely dared boxing legend Mike Tyson to test his strength. “I want to see how hard he hits,” Paul proclaimed before saying he wants his opponent to test his “iron chin.”
Paul is set to face off against 57-year-old Tyson in a peculiar boxing match. And Paul has been causing quite a stir since he decided to swap his internet career for boxing gloves. His next opponent? None other than “Iron Mike” Tyson, one of the most fearsome punchers in heavyweight boxing history who is decades past his prime.
The fight is set to take place at the massive AT&T Stadium in Texas on July 20, with over 30 years separating the two fighters.
Despite Tyson’s reputation, Paul isn’t scared. In fact, he’s never been knocked down in his 10 professional fights, and he’s daring Tyson to try and be the first to do it.
“I want to see how hard he hits. Mike, I really want to see, bro,” Paul said on his BS podcast. “Let’s see all the legends, the myths, because you’re Iron Mike Tyson, but I have an iron chin, people know that. I take shots. I think people are underestimating me being able to deal with his power, and that’s something that’s going to make it interesting.
“I am biting off a lot. This is definitely the toughest, most savage, lethal opponent regardless of age, because the power is the last thing to go. The reaction and reception of it is insane. I almost can’t even believe it, so very surreal and very, very grateful for all of that. We’re going to see. I’m excited. I literally can’t wait to look across the ring and see him and give him a f***ing death stare.”
Fans still don’t know all the details about the fight, like how many rounds there will be or what weight they’ll be fighting at. Paul and Tyson want it to be a professional fight, but the Texas Commission gets to decide whether it’s officially sancioned.
People will be able to watch the fight live on Netflix, and Paul thinks this won’t be the only time the streaming service shows a fight.
“I did the face-off, and then I walked away and I just laughed to myself. I was like, ‘Ha! This is insane.’ On my screen, my eyeballs are the ones facing off against Mike Tyson, and I just couldn’t believe it. The fact that it’s on Netflix, I think that’s going to really revolutionise the game in boxing. I think streaming could eventually be a very bright future for the sport,” he added.
