Mike Tyson is set to step back into the ring for a professional fight after nearly two decades by facing off against Jake Paul tonight.

At 58, Tyson is coming out of retirement to battle YouTuber Paul, who is 31 years his junior, in a match that could draw up to 80,000 spectators at the AT&T Stadium in Texas. This will be Tyson’s first fight since his draw with Roy Jones Jr in 2020 and his first professional bout since he retired mid-match after five rounds against Kevin McBride almost 20 years ago.

Paul’s only loss was to Tommy Fury last year, but he has boosted his record with victories over seasoned former MMA fighters including Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz and Mike Perry. Despite this, the younger contender is confident he can abruptly halt Tyson’s comeback. Here’s everything you need to know about tonight’s fight.

Here’s the full fight card, undercard and UK start times:.

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson – 4am

Tonight, fans will find out if Mike Tyson still has what it takes. The 58 year old has the chance to re-establish himself as a credible fighter or risk embarrassment in front of thousands at the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium.

Jake Paul has vowed to defeat the boxing legend, but it remains uncertain whether he can deliver a knockout blow to Iron Mike.

Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano – 3am

This rematch has been two years in the making, with Amanda Serrano seeking to avenge her split-decision loss to Katie Taylor in their first encounter. While Taylor has faced tougher opponents since then, her bouts with Chantelle Cameron may have taken a toll, potentially giving the fresher Serrano an edge.

Mario Barrios vs Abel Ramos – 2am

Mario Barrios is determined to retain his welterweight world title as he faces Abel Ramos tonight. Barrios didn’t earn his belt in the ring, instead being elevated when Terence Crawford was ‘promoted’ to champion in recess while he contemplates his next move.

Ramos, having lost three of his last five bouts, will need to up his game to unseat the champion.

Neeraj Goyat vs Whindersson Nunes – 1am

In a clash between a professional boxer and a social media sensation, India’s Neeraj Goyat aims to put Brazilian star Whindersson Nunes in his place. Nunes, who has previously competed on the influencer boxing circuit, will need to demonstrate unprecedented skill to defeat Goyat, who was once rumoured to be facing Amir Khan and has 24 fights under his belt.

Shadasia Green vs Melinda Watpool – 12am

Shadasia Green, a member of Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions stable, has been granted another world title opportunity in her last three fights. She came up short last year against Franchon Crews Dezurn but bounced back with a win over Natasha Spence, who, interestingly, was also defeated by Melinda Watpool in her most recent match.

Lucas Bahdi vs Armando Casamonica – 11.15pm

Lucas Bahdi has rocketed into the spotlight of the boxing world with a sensational knockout victory over Jake Paul’s protege Ashton Sylve earlier this year, boosting his record to an impressive 17-0. Now, he’s set to face another undefeated contender in Armando Casamonica, who boasts a flawless 14-win streak in his professional career.

Casamonica is stepping up on short notice to fill in for the injured Corey Marksman.

The evening’s action will kick off with featherweight sensation Bruce Carrington at 10.30pm as he aims to cement his status among the elite fighters globally. With a perfect track record of 13 wins, Carrington is expected to be too much for Dana Coolwell, who has tasted defeat only twice in his 15-fight career.

In the Quotes corner:

Jake Paul has expressed his unique position in the boxing scene: “I’m blessed to be in the position I am, to be highly criticised. That just means I’m doing something right. No one has had a boxing career like mine.

“It’ll be studied and judged, but I’ve risen to the top in four years because I’ve taken risks. I was the underdog all the way up until Nate Robinson and that’s something that people don’t remember [and] don’t give any credit to, but I put it on the line against some of the best in the sport every single time. That’s why I’m here on Netflix against the biggest name in boxing right now.”

Meanwhile, Mike Tyson succinctly stated his readiness and determination: “I’m just ready to fight. I’ve said everything I had to say. There’s nothing else to say. I’m just looking forward to fighting. I’m not going to lose.”
