Case for a Jake Paul victory:
Since turning professional in 2020 – Paul has silenced critics time and again with his highly entertaining and impressive performances. With victories over high-profile former UFC fighters Tyron Woodley, Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva, Ben Askren and Mike Perry, he has proven his ability to go toe-to-toe with some of the most dangerous combat athletes on the planet.
The sole blemish on Paul’s record came against Tommy Fury in February 2023, with the ‘Problem Child’ suffering a razor thin split decision loss. However, he has bounced back by winning four straight fights – three of which have come by way of knockout.
With age, activity and form on his side, Paul will likely fancy his chances of winning by late stoppage or by decision if he can withstand the early onslaught. At 58, does Tyson have the stamina to win should it go past five rounds? Most are of the belief that a fight that goes beyond the halfway mark favours Paul.
Jake Paul Stats:
Age: 27
Height: 6ft 1in
Weight: TBD
Record: 10-1 (7KOs)
Case for a Mike Tyson victory:
Arguably the most feared man in boxing history, Tyson will be returning to the professional boxing ring for the first time since 2005.
Tyson fought an exhibition against fellow Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr. in 2020 – however, that didn’t count towards either fighter’s record.
While age and activity isn’t on his side, Tyson still appears to pack devastating power in both hands when looking at his training videos. His ability to get on the inside and rain punches to the head and body with his unique peek-a-boo style could prove too much for his far more inexperienced opponent.
Expect a sharp and fast start from Tyson, and should he land clean early, don’t be surprised if Paul is rendered unconscious.
Mike Tyson Stats:
Age: 58
Height: 5ft 10in
Weight: TBD
Record: 50-6 (44KOs)
