(Arlington, TX) — The long-awaited fight between boxing legend Mike Tyson and YouTube star Jake Paul goes down tonight in Dallas. Netflix will stream the fight between the 58-year-old Tyson and 27-year-old Paul live from A-T-and-T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The fight is at the top of a card that will include three other matches.
Jake Paul was originally a YouTube sensation with millions of followers, but in recent years has become a professional boxer with a 10-1 record. Some say the quality of boxers he’s fought have been less than stellar. Tyson retired from boxing back in 2005 with a 50-6 record. He has not boxed in an official match since 2005.
Both fighters will collect big checks for the face-off that are reportedly around 20 million dollars each.
