This match is raising eyebrows. Tyson is 58 years old and hasn't had a professional fight in almost 20 years. For Paul, it's the biggest fight of his career so far.
Paul has mostly fought former UFC stars who switched from MMA to boxing. In his last fight in August 2023, he won against Nate Diaz. The match went for 10 rounds, and Paul won by unanimous decision. He even knocked Diaz down in the fifth round.
But Diaz isn't impressed with Paul's skills. In an interview, he said:
"He can't really fight."
Diaz criticized Paul for making personal comments. He thinks boxing should be about the competition, not personal attacks.
So far, only one boxer has beaten Paul - Tommy Fury. Now, Paul is taking on a boxing legend. The fight against Tyson will test Paul's skills like never before.
As the fight day gets closer, fans are wondering how the YouTuber-turned-boxer will do against the former heavyweight champion. Will Paul's recent experience be enough, or will Tyson's legendary power and skill prove too much? We'll find out soon.
