George Foreman Drops Bombshell Prediction for Tyson-Paul Bout: "Never Seen Anything Like It"

None

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are set to face off in a boxing match later this year. The former heavyweight champion, now 58, will take on the YouTuber-turned-boxer at AT&T; Stadium in Texas.

Netflix will stream the eight-round fight live, marking the first time the platform has broadcast a boxing match through its standard subscription service.

The announcement of the bout has stirred up controversy in the boxing world. Some of the sport's biggest names have voiced their concerns, calling it an inappropriate and dangerous match-up. Health issues on Tyson's part led to an initial postponement, adding to the worries.

George Foreman, the oldest heavyweight champion in history, doesn't think Tyson will knock out Paul. He told NY Fights:

"Jake Paul is no pushover and he is not afraid of any of these guys. Time is on his side. So happy for Mike Tyson, he needed this excitement in his life. Everyone is talking about it. Answer to your question: 'No.'"

Tyson, who became the youngest ever heavyweight world champion, has promised to turn back the clock. He aims to produce the kind of knockout that made him famous in the eighties.

For Paul, the situation looks tricky. Many have called it a lose-lose scenario. If he loses, he'll have lost to a man nearly 60 years old. If he wins, he'll have beaten a boxing legend past his prime. Despite this, Paul remains set on his goal to challenge for world titles in the sport.

The age gap between the two fighters spans three decades. Paul has mostly faced former MMA fighters in his boxing career so far. Now, he'll step into the ring with one of boxing's most iconic figures.

As the fight date approaches, the boxing world will watch closely to see how this unusual matchup unfolds.
