One of the biggest fight nights of the year is almost here as Jake Paul and Mike Tyson do battle in the boxing ring.
Many were surprised to hear the news that Paul would face ‘Iron Mike’ and the pair were originally scheduled to fight on 20 July, only for Tyson to postpone at the last minute due to an ulcer flare-up.
Paul has already fought twice this year, beating Ryan Boulard and Mike Perry, whereas former heavyweight champion Tyson will return to boxing after a four-year absence.
Both are looking good going into the fight and many are predicting a close contest when the talking is done.
