The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), which previously sanctioned the fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul as a professional fight, has released details of the bout.
According to the regulations, the boxers will hold an eight-round fight. The duration of the round is two minutes. Athletes will use 14-ounce gloves (instead of 10 ounces) and have no head protection.
Paul, 27, last stepped into the ring in March 2024, defeating Ryan Bourland by technical knockout in the first round. He has nine wins (six by knockout) and one loss on his record.
In November 2020, Tyson had an exhibition fight with Roy Jones. The fight ended in a draw. The 57-year-old Mike has 50 wins (44 by knockout) and six defeats.
