Jake Paul and Mike Tyson collide on July 20th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
Paul, is certainly not a man that lacks confidence in his own ability. Since beginning his boxing career he has amassed a record of (9-1) with 6 knockouts on his record but has mostly fought older MMA legends with his only loss coming at the hands of Tommy Fury via a split-decision.

Next up for ‘The Problem Child’ is the legendary Mike Tyson, and on a recent episode of his podcast he was asked about his skill level compared to that of the boxing icon and he made a very bold claim … that he can hit at the ‘same level’ as Tyson.
He said on his Podcast: “To the people that don’t think I’m going to win, I’m younger, faster, sharper, and can hit at the same level that he can, and I am able to take his punches.”
