Caption: Fight Between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul Officially Rescheduled. 'The Independent' reports that Mike Tyson's upcoming fight against Jake Paul has been rescheduled for November 15 at Arlington's AT&T Stadium in Texas. The event will also host a championship bout between welterweight champ Katy Taylor and challenger Amanda Serrano in a highly-anticipated rematch. Originally, the bout between 57-year-old Tyson and the much younger Paul was scheduled to take place on July 20. That date was postponed after Tyson had a medical issue regarding a flare-up of an ulcer problem and was advised to delay the fight. In May, Tyson had a medical emergency on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles and needed medical treatment. "Our team has worked diligently with all parties involved to reschedule this monumental fight to a date that ensures both Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are fully prepared, with equal training time, as well as allowing us to keep the event at AT&T stadium in the midst of the Cowboys season.", "Paul v Tyson is the most cross generational sporting event in history, and we are committed to providing fans worldwide with this unforgettable night of boxing, live globally on Netflix.", Nakisa Bidarian, MVP co-founder, via 'The Independent'. 'The Independent' points out that Paul is 30 years younger than former heavyweight champion Tyson, whose professional boxing career ended in 2005. "We look forward to seeing everyone on Friday November 15 for a showdown that will be talked about for generations to come.", Nakisa Bidarian, MVP co-founder, via 'The Independent’.
