Mike Tyson doesn’t see Jake Paul clashing head on with him when they meet in the squared circle.
Tyson and Paul will fight Nov. 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas in an eight-round pro bout. The matchup headlines the first combat sporting event to stream live on Netflix for subscribers.
When the bell rings, Tyson believes Paul will do a lot of running once he gets hit. From there, it’s up to the former heavyweight champ to trap him.
“I see him running around, I have to catch him and slaughter him,” Tyson told TalkSport.
“No, [I don’t fear him] because he stepped into the ring. If my mother steps in the ring, she has a problem with me. Whoever’s in that ring, they have a problem. Don’t go in the ring if you don’t want that problem.”
Tyson hasn’t competed since an exhibition bout with Roy Jones Jr. in November 2020, fighting to a no decision after eight rounds. The most recent pro boxing bout for “Iron” took place in 2005 where he lost via sixth-round TKO after he couldn’t answer the bell in what was set to be his final pro boxing bout.
Paul is 10-1 as a pro boxer, which includes victories over MMA stars Ben Askren, Anderson Silva, Mike Perry and Tyron Woodley.
Tyson sees what Paul has done to put eyeballs on the sport of boxing, as well as the improvements Paul has made. But the 58-year-old says the experience gap is just plain ridiculous.
“He’s a good little fighter, but he only has [11] fights,” Tyson said. “That’s considered an amateur in our field.”
