Eight months after the fight was first announced, the trash talk between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul has hit the home stretch before they finally square off

Jake Paul has made millions from boxing but will enjoy one of his biggest pay-days to date when he takes on Mike Tyson in Dallas next week

Jake Paul has said he felt “numb” when Mike Tyson withdrew from their fight earlier this year, before the bout was rearranged. YouTube star Paul has gone 10-1 as a professional boxer in recent years, and his next challenge comes against Tyson, who is deemed one of the greatest heavyweight champions in the sport’s history.
