Mike Tyson takes on Jake Paul on November 15th.
The former baddest man on the planet returns to the ring to face ‘The Problem Child’ at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
They were originally scheduled to fight in July, but an ulcer-flare up forced ‘Iron Mike’ to reschedule the fight to November.
MMA legend, Daniel Cormier has given his assessment on the fight and believes if Tyson knocks out Paul that it would achieve something that has ‘never been done in the sport’.

He said: “I understand that [he looks good at 58], and I get what he’s saying [he feels great]
“I do agree when he’s hitting pads with Rafael Cordeiro. It looks like there’s still something left in there. But then I watch, Jake Paul fight Mike Perry. I watched Jake Paul get pressed to the point where he started to feel uncomfortable. It looked like Mike Perry had a chance. But then Jake has a reserve tank to go to and get and draw from because he’s 28 years old. Then he comes back and ultimately finishes Mike Perry.
“Early in the fight, Mike Perry is getting beat on and dropped. He looks out-manned and outmatched. That is my concern because what if this looks like a 58-year-old man fighting a 28-year-old man, where Mike can’t draw from that reserve tank to stay and compete with this young kid? I think it’s a lose-lose for Jake Paul because if you beat up Mike Tyson, everybody loves Mike Tyson.”
What if Mike knocks him out, though? Then it’s over. Everything’s done.
“It would be an all-time backfire. If he gets knocked out, nothing’s ever been done like that in the sport’s history.”
