Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight gets new date

Following an earlier delay to their matchup, Jake Paul and Mike Tyson’s fight has been given a new date.

‘The Problem Child’ wants to continue his rise in the sport of boxing, but to do so he will have to survive the knockout power of Tyson. The YouTube star has made a name for himself in the ring, earning wins over former UFC champions and even a professional boxer.

Most Valuable Promotions–Jake Paul’s company–issued a statement to announce the rescheduling of the fight. The new date will now see the pair come face to face on November 15, four months later than their original date.

“Our team has worked diligently with all parties involved to reschedule this monumental fight to a date that ensures both Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are fully prepared, with equal training time, as well as allowing us to keep the event at AT&T stadium.”

“We appreciate the outstanding dedication, collaboration, and flexibility of our partners at Netflix and AT&T Stadium.”
