Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are getting ready to face each other in a boxing match. The fight will happen on Friday at AT&T; Stadium in Arlington, Texas. It's going to be eight rounds, each lasting two minutes, and you can watch it live on Netflix.
This fight has got people talking because of the big age difference between Paul and Tyson. Paul started as a YouTuber and TikTok dancer before getting into boxing. Tyson, on the other hand, is a famous boxer who hasn't fought professionally since 2005.
Carl Froch, who used to be a world champion boxer and now talks about boxing on YouTube, has changed his mind about who'll win. Last year, he thought Tyson would easily beat Paul. He said, "Mike Tyson would knock him out really bad. Dangerous move for Jake Paul, he's absolutely useless, didn't know he was still fighting!"
But just days before the fight, Froch changed his prediction. He told his YouTube channel 'Froch On Fighting':
"I think it's going to be a one-sided whooping, and Jake Paul is going to beat him in four or five rounds, as Mike Tyson will get absolutely knackered and probably fall over."
Froch explained why he thinks this way now:
"Mike Tyson shouldn't be in there with a young man. If he gets knocked out and badly hurt, he's getting knocked out by a geezer who used to be a TikTok dancer that can't box. Does Mike Tyson really need to be jumping in there with Jake Paul? It's a shame it's come to this. It would be fantastic if Tyson goes in there and puts a whooping on him and lands a couple of shots, but the reality is I don't think he's going to be allowed to catch him."
Even boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya has weighed in on Paul's boxing skills, summing them up in just four words ahead of the fight.
The fight has certainly got the boxing world talking. We'll have to wait until Friday to see if Froch's new prediction comes true or if Tyson can prove him wrong.
