Paul (10-1) competes against his fourth pro boxer. He has primarily fought MMA fighters, with his last contest against Mike Perry. “The Problem Child” lost against Tommy Fury but beat boxers Andre August and Ryan Bourland handily. All attention will be on him when he faces “The Baddest Man on the Planet.”
Tyson (50-6) is a former undisputed heavyweight champion who last fought professionally in 2005. The 58-year-old dealt with an ulcer issue that delayed this fight. Despite age and health being a factor, Tyson still packs a mean punch, looking to land his 45th win via knockout against Paul.
Paul is much younger than Tyson, which can give him an edge, but that also means he is inexperienced in Tyson’s eyes. He will do whatever he can to take down Paul, someone who put him in a place he never thought he would go back to.
“I see him running around, I have to catch him and slaughter him,” Tyson told talkSPORT . “No, [I don’t fear him] because he stepped into the ring. If my mother steps in the ring, she has a problem with me. Whoever’s in that ring, they have a problem. Don’t go in the ring if you don’t want that problem.”
