One of boxing's most divisive figures, Jake Paul, is back in action this weekend when he takes on former UFC fighter Mike Perry.
Paul was supposed to be facing boxing legend Mike Tyson in Dallas this summer, but with the latter having to pull out due to injury, the contest is now scheduled to take place on November 15.
However, "The Problem Child" is looking to stay busy and will now go head-to-head with Perry.
The former UFC fighter only has one boxing fight under his belt, and that was a loss in 2015, but can he produce a huge upset in Florida?

Predictions ahead of Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry
Logan Paul
Wasserman Boxing
“He already beat Tyron Woodley — floored him, beat him twice — who is much better than Mike Perry, an MMA fighter who didn’t quite make it, so he went into [BKFC],” Logan Paul wrote on an Instagram story.
“Yes, he’s a bada-s. Yes, he can brawl. But this isn’t brawling, this is boxing. This is playing chess with your fists, and my brother has been doing this for the past six years.
“It’s all he wants, and I promise you he’s going to shock the world once again.”
Darren Till
"I keep 50/50 on both. I don’t know, some days I say Jake because I know Jake is the bigger man. But then I don’t think you can rule Perry out," Till told Fred Talks Fighting .
“He’s a tough man and he’s been beating all of these veterans. So, it’s a 50/50. I’m going to sway towards Jake a little bit more.”
