    At a second news conference to promote the fight, it has been confirmed that the much-anticipated bout between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will move forward on Friday, November 15, at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The exhibition match, titled " The Baddest Man on the Planet ," will be streamed on Netflix.

    "It's happening," Tyson said at the Fanatics Fest in New York City on Aug. 18. "We're all here. … I'm prepared. I'm very prepared. I had a small adversity, I got sick, but I got better. I feel good."

    Paul, a YouTuber-turned-boxer, improved his record to 10-1 (seven KOs) after his July 21 victory in Florida. This victory came after a fight against bare-knuckle fighter Mike Perry, replacing the original match between Paul and Tyson. On the other hand, Tyson, a former heavyweight champion, has a 50-win, six-loss record in his professional career.

    Paul has shifted his focus to a fight against the former heavyweight champion after it was rescheduled due to a health emergency experienced by the boxing legend. Despite the setback, Tyson has confirmed that his doctors have cleared him to resume training and has been doing so for three weeks.
