Jake Paul set to face Mike Tyson in Netflix-boxing showdown

In the era of freak fights, it's no surprise that influencers are starting sports careers related to martial arts. In the American scene, many people have succeeded in the rings or octagons of federations that assemble semi-professional fighters. Some influencers appear in octagons for easy money, while others approach the task professionally. They spend many hours in training gyms and follow appropriate diets and supplement regimens.

American influencer Jake Paul has been fighting in boxing rings for a long time. He has many bouts to his name, both spectacular and less notable. The most important fight of his career so far will take place on November 15, 2024. Jake Paul's opponent in the ring will be Mike Tyson, a world-famous boxer who needs no introduction to sports enthusiasts.

Netflix will broadcast the fight of the decade, expanding its repertoire beyond streaming series, movies, and concerts. Unlike many fight broadcasts, it will not be on a Pay-per-view basis. Every Netflix account holder will have access to the sports spectacle.

Jake Paul regularly shares videos online documenting his preparations for the fight with Mike Tyson. His training includes running workouts, sparring sessions, and bag work, all aimed at ensuring his victory over the American boxing legend. However, Paul has now taken it a step further. He ordered a boxing machine, which is well-known to all fans of video game arcades and those who visit tourist spots. Instead of a standard bag, the machine features a likeness of Jake Paul's head. Online, the influencer shared a video of himself punching his own likeness. The video garnered nearly 76,000 likes. Commenters wish Paul luck in the fight, although many believe he doesn't stand a chance against the experienced Mike Tyson.
