Jake Paul and Mike Tyson exchanged final words at their pre-fight press conference, with both men making it clear that they’re ready for war on November 15. The fight, set to take place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX, will be streamed live on Netflix, promising to be a spectacle for fans around the globe.
While the usually vocal Mike Tyson, now 58, appeared somewhat disengaged, he assured everyone that he’s fully prepared for the showdown. "I’m just ready to fight. I’ve said everything I had to say," Tyson remarked. "I’m not going to lose." Despite his quieter demeanor, the former undisputed heavyweight champ seems eager to return to the ring, proving that even at his age, he’s still a force to be reckoned with.
Jake Paul, on the other hand, showed no lack of confidence. The 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer was brimming with energy, even proposing bets with the undercard fighters. Neeraj Goyat boldly offered his property in India, while Australian fighter Dana Coolwell playfully put up just 20 bucks. Paul is determined to make a statement, saying, "I want the hardest match possible Friday night. I want there to be no excuses when I knock him out."
Paul further emphasized the significance of this event, highlighting its massive appeal. "This is the biggest live gate in US boxing history outside of Las Vegas," he noted, giving credit to the entire lineup, including Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano. For Paul, this fight represents another step in his unconventional yet highly successful boxing journey. "I’ve risen to the top in four years because I’ve taken risks," he added.
With both men promising fireworks, fans can expect an action-packed night that might not go the full distance. As Paul confidently stated, "It’s not going the full 16 minutes."
