Fans around the world are anticipating the historic fight between American Mike Tyson, the 58-year-old former heavyweight boxing legend, and 27-year-old Jake Paul, which is scheduled to be held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Mike Tyson returns to professional boxing for the first time in nearly two decades today, Friday, in Texas, at 4 a.m. Saturday, Cairo time.
The 58-year-old former heavyweight champion is engaged in a battle with Jake Paul, who is famous on social media platforms, in a confrontation that is scheduled to attract a global audience of about 300 million viewers, according to the British newspaper “The Guardian”.
Mike Tyson will face Paul, who is 31 years younger than him, in a professional fight of 8 rounds lasting two minutes each, approved by the boxing authorities in Texas.
The anticipated fight was scheduled to take place several months ago, but it was postponed due to the illness of world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson with an ulcer.
The British newspaper “The Guardian” reported that Jake Paul, who has been able to develop into a skilled boxer since he started this sport and turned professional in 2020, and won 10 out of 11 matches against several other fighters, sees it as another step towards his imaginary goal of winning a world title. .
Jake Paul recently said: “I am focused on becoming a world champion, and now I have the opportunity to prove myself against the greatest heavyweight champion of all time, the strongest man on the planet and the most dangerous boxer of all time.”
He added: “I want that killer.” “I want the strongest possible fight against Tyson and I don’t want anyone to have any excuses when I knock him out.”
