Derek Chisora had claimed that Mike Tyson’s fight with Jake Paul will be a glorified spar.

The popular British heavyweight revealed that the fight between Tyson and Paul will go ahead with both fighters wearing headgear and 18oz gloves.

But MMA journalist Ariel Helwani has debunked that theory. On his latest MMA Hour show, he’s now claimed that they are aiming for the fight to be a ‘sanctioned’ heavyweight contest and that the pair are hoping the Texas commission approves the professional bout.

He said: “Is it pro or is it exhibition? They want pro, but that’s up to the Texas commission, we’ll have to wait and see. Weight? I’m told heavyweight. Rounds? I’m working on that as well.

“I saw an interview with Derek Chisora where he said there would be headgear. I was told there’s absolutely no headgear involved. This is going to look like your typical boxing match. It’s just like, exhibition like Mike’s last fight was against Roy Jones in November 2020? Or is it just going to be a normal, pro-heavyweight fight that has no strings attached in that regard?”
