Jake Paul and Mike Tyson collide on November 15th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Despite the huge age-gap and ‘Iron Mike’s’ recent health scare the fight will go ahead in just over two weeks’ time and will be broadcast live on Netflix.

It has emerged that Paul and Tyson will box over eight, two-minute rounds, rather than the traditional three minutes and they will battle it out in 14oz gloves instead of the usual 10oz mitts that are usually worn by professionals.

But, Hall of Fame boxing referee Richard Steele has sent ‘The Problem Child’ a warning ahead of their showdown.

“That’s still a small glove thinking about the power of Mike Tyson,” he told USA Today.

“I don’t see the guy going that distance with Tyson. Because Tyson, he’s so strong and he’s an ex-champion.

“He knows what he’s doing and for two minutes… he can go all out.”

“He’s still dangerous, he has so much power… I just hope he don’t end up getting hurt or hurt the other guy.”
