Tyson vs. Paul Isn’t going to be your usual boxing match. Here’s what you need to know about the rules, rounds and amendments in the fight.
The long-anticipated boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is finally on when the duo meets in the ring Friday night. However, as you might expect for a fight between a 58-year-old former undisputed heavyweight champ and a 27-year-old social media star at the start of his pro boxing career, this ain’t your usual boxing match. So you should expect some different fight rules for this one.
The bout is not an exhibition match, but a sanctioned pro match that goes on the athletes’ records. However, ahead of Friday night’s fight at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations has approved several amended rules.
