Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are getting ready for a big boxing match. The two fighters will face off on November 15, 2024, at AT&T; Stadium in Texas. Netflix will stream the event live.

The fight has stirred up controversy due to the 30-year age gap between the fighters. Tyson, the former undisputed heavyweight champion, is 57 years old. Paul, a content creator turned boxer, is 27.

Deandre Savage, a heavyweight boxer who's been sparring with Paul, shared his thoughts on the upcoming bout. He told Pro Boxing Fans that Paul has surprised him.

"I think a lot of people is sleeping on Jake Paul. I was sleeping on him at first until I actually been around him."

Savage pointed out Paul's strengths. He said Paul works hard, takes the sport seriously, and has a good jab and right hand. He's also fast. But Savage noted that Paul is still a bit green and is working on his movement in the ring.

During one sparring session, Paul knocked Savage down. Savage explained:

"Jake caught me with a good right hand, I just went down to my knee and got back up. And that was it."

When it comes to predicting the fight's outcome, Savage leans towards Paul. He cited the age difference as the main factor. However, he made it clear he's rooting for Tyson.

"Mike is Mike but it's the age difference. I hope Mike wins, I do hope Mike wins, but I don't think so. I think the age."

Savage doesn't think the fight will be a traditional boxing match. He expects it to be more of a show, blending boxing with entertainment. He hopes the fight goes the distance.

It's worth noting that Tyson hasn't had a professional fight since 2005. His last appearance in the ring was an exhibition match with Roy Jones Jr in 2020.

Savage also shared a personal note about working with Paul. He said the earnings from Paul's training camp allowed him to buy his first home.

"I also want to thank Jake and his team and his coach, cause from me being in that camp I was able to purchase my first home. I want to thank Jake Paul for that."

The fight is set to be a unique event, mixing the experience of a boxing legend with the fresh energy of a new-generation fighter. Fans around the world will be tuning in to see how it unfolds.
