Jake Paul (10-1), whose résumé includes YouTube celebrity, marketer and prizefighter, will face former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson (50-6) in a sanctioned eight-round bout. It’s a marketing event for the ages, as Paul is the young up-and-comer, who started fighting professionally in January 2020, building his record against former UFC fighters and fellow YouTubers.

Tyson’s legacy is set, but he’s also 58 years old, so a win is far from certain. Paul also has a longer reach and stands three inches taller than Tyson.

The fight will be a bit different than a typical heavyweight bout. Rounds will last just two minutes instead of the traditional three. And both fighters will wear 14-ounce gloves instead of the traditional 10-ounce ones.

It’s expected to be the biggest live event in live streaming history for host network Netflix. Here’s all you need to know about how to catch the action.

When are Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fighting?

Paul and Tyson will square off on Friday, Nov. 15.

What time does the Tyson vs. Paul fight begin?

The card gets underway at 8:00 p.m. ET. There’s an undercard with six additional fights, however (only three of which will air on Netflix), so there’s no telling exactly when Paul and Tyson will take to the ring.

Why is this fight happening?

Publicity and cash. Paul is an expert at snagging the media’s attention, so challenging someone who has a reputation like Tyson is an easy way to steal the spotlight. Celebrity boxing has also become more popular in the past 20 years or so, guaranteeing an audience. Plus, there’s a $40 million purse up for grabs—and that’s appealing to both boxers. “I’m here to make $40m and knock out a legend,” Paul said at a news conference in August.

For Tyson, it’s a chance to cement his legacy at an age where most boxers are long past their prime.
