After the bout was pushed back from its July 20th date, promoters announced the highly anticipated boxing fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul has been scheduled for November 15th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, USA.

Former heavyweight champion’s recent ulcer flare up was the reason for the extension as medical professionals had recommended Tyson, 57, does minimal light training over the next few weeks as he recovers before returning to full training with no limitations.

Former heavyweight boxer, Mike Tyson.

“Although we had to postpone the fight, I will resume training shortly,” Tyson said.

“While we have a new date, the result will be the same no matter when we fight. Jake Paul is getting knocked out.”

‘Iron Mike’, who has a 50-6 record with 44 knockouts, was one of the most feared heavyweights in history but has not fought a professional fight since 2005.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul is 30 years his junior and has a 9-1 boxing record.
