Jake Paul continues to pursue his dream of becoming a professional boxer. He is scheduled to face boxing legend Mike Tyson on November 15th, but a UFC icon has cautioned him against taking the fight.

A few years ago, the Paul brothers, Jake and Logan, ventured into boxing. While Logan fought several influencers, Jake has shown a stronger commitment to establishing a serious boxing career.

At 27, Jake has fought professional boxers in recent years. However, his upcoming bout against Mike Tyson, one of the greatest boxers of all time, is set to be his most challenging fight yet, and its outcome remains unpredictable.

Although Tyson retired in 2005, he has agreed to return to the ring. YouTuber Jake Paul challenged the 58-year-old legend to a boxing match, and Tyson accepted.

The fight was originally scheduled for July but was postponed to November 15th due to Tyson’s health issues. Despite the matchup, not everyone believes it’s a good idea for Paul to fight Tyson.

“That is my concern. Because what if this looks like a 58-year-old man fighting a 28-year-old man, where Mike can’t dig deep?” questioned Cormier. “I think it’s a lose-lose for Jake Paul because if you beat up Mike Tyson, everyone loves Mike Tyson.

What if Mike knocks him out though? Then it’s over. Everything’s done. It would be an all-time backfire. Nothing like that has ever happened in the history of the sport.”
