Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson is one of the most highly-anticipated made-for-streaming events in history and the two celebrities will step inside the squared circle on Friday at AT&T Stadium. The fight was originally scheduled for July 20, but the 58-year-old Tyson had an ulcer flare-up that forced the meeting to be scheduled. The 31-year age difference between the two fighters is believed to be the largest in the history of professional boxing. Tyson became the youngest heavyweight champion in history when he beat Trevor Berbick for the WBC title at 20 in 1986, while Paul, born in 1997, is 10-1 in his boxing career. Tyson vs. Paul will be contested over eight, two-minute rounds, with the fighters wearing heavier 14-ounce gloves.

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. Tyson hasn't fought professionally since 2005, but he battled Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition in 2020 that was ruled a split-decision draw after eight rounds. With the shorter two-minute rounds and 14-ounce gloves, there should be a level of give and take for the veteran with his power potentially negated, but his cardio likely being less of a factor.
Meanwhile, Paul has had six of his last eight fights go into the sixth round or later, including his most recent bout against Mike Perry, which he won by TKO in the sixth round. If both fighters can survive early power shots, Wise believes this fight could settle into a solid rhythm with the two-minute rounds and is banking on this made-for-streaming spectacle building towards an outcome in the later rounds.
