Influencer boxing matches have risen in popularity in recent years, and the YouTuber behind much of that is Jake Paul. He has carved out a 10-1 record, but the profile of those 11 fights pales in comparison to what is coming his way on Friday. Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson will take place in Arlington, Texas, where the social media star will step into the ring versus the youngest heavyweight champion in boxing history. Tyson has 58 bouts under his belt, but the Hall of Famer hasn't had a professional fight in nearly 20 years. AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys, will host Tyson vs. Paul, a sanctioned heavyweight fight with adjusted rules, including eight two-minute rounds and 14-ounce gloves, three days prior to hosting Monday Night Football.

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul predictions
Wise has analyzed the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson bout and is leaning Over 5.5 rounds at -150 odds. Both fighters have measurables in their favor that indicate an early knockout or stoppage is unlikely. The 6-foot-1 Paul has a five-inch reach advantage over the 5-foot-10 Tyson, which should allow the former to maintain a comfortable distance from Tyson. That decreases the chances of Tyson landing a big blow, which has been the calling card of his Hall of Fame career.
In Tyson's advantage is the noticeable size difference, as this will be Paul's heavyweight debut. He has never fought at more than 200 pounds and has never faced an opponent that weighed over 198. Tyson checked in at 233 pounds in his last pro fight, so it's fair to wonder if the much lighter Paul could inflict much damage on Tyson, who also has 163 more rounds of pro experience than his opponent. With these factors, Wise doesn't see Paul vs. Tyson ending early and comfortably backs Over 5.5 rounds. See who to pick here.
