Jake Paul and Mike Tyson step into the ring on tonight (November 15) for one of the most discussed and debated fights of the year.
The original bout was scheduled for July but was pushed back to November after Tyson suffered an ulcer flare-up, which has raised concerns about the boxing legend's fitness.
Paul has already fought twice in 2024. He kicked off his year with a TKO win over Ryan Bourland in the first round, before beating Michael Perry in July.

Tyson, 58, has not fought competitively since losing to Kevin McBride in 2005, but if he can rediscover any of his fearsome power and menace from his heyday where he won six championship titles, then Paul will face his toughest test to date.
The fight card also sees Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano fight in a rematch for Taylor's IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO women's super-lightweight titles.

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson boxing history
Neither of these fighters need any introduction with the impact they've had in boxing, although in very different ways.
Tyson, aka 'Iron Mike', is a boxing legend and six-time heavyweight world champion.
"The Baddest Man on the Planet" claimed his first title at just 20 years old. He reigned as the undisputed world heavyweight champion from 1987 to 1990 and won his first 19 professional fights by knockout, 12 of them in the first round.
He was the first heavyweight boxer to simultaneously hold the WBA, WBC and IBF titles, as well as the only heavyweight to unify them in succession.
His professional record reads 50-6, with 44 knockouts, suffering two defeats to Evander Holyfield, one via disqualication for biting his opponent's ear, and undisputed world champion Lennox Lewis at the backend of his career.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul, meanwhile, has made waves in the sport by bringing a new generation of fans to the sport, mainly fighting fellow celebrities, influencers and crossover fighters.
The social media star, actor and singer made his boxing debut in 2018 with a white-collar match against Deji Olatunji, in which he won via technical knockout.
His professional boxing bow came against fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib in 2020, and has also defeated former basketball player Nate Robinson, former MMA fighters Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley (twice), Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz, and professional boxers Andre August and Ryan Bourland.
Paul's record reads 10-1, with his only loss coming in 2023 against active boxer Tommy Fury, brother of Tyson, by split decision.
