Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson LIVE: UK start time, scorecard and round-by-round updates as YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul, 27,and ‘Iron Mike’, 58, arrive for controversial bout

Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano are just moments away from walking to the ring.

Netflix are currently showing highlights of their first fight two years ago and it really takes me back.

Some people still debate to this day that Taylor should not have won that fight.

Well, today she can prove that she is truly the greatest of all time by beating Serrano once again.

I just hope they supply another epic bout.

I’ve just been in the dressing room with Mike Tyson and he’s not messing about. He’s here to do and job and won’t be happy with anything else!

I feel like most of boxing’s Mount Rushmore is in this video.

Lennox Lewis, Sugar Ray Leonard, and Evander Holyfield have all re-united to watch their old pal Mike Tyson tonight.

I’m surprised Holyfield hasn’t borrowed those ear covers Jake Paul used at the press conference the other day.

In all seriousness though, it’s pretty cool to see all these guys in one room.

Right, let’s get into some housekeeping for tonight.

Considering this is not just your average fight night, it’s no surprise that it doesn’t have the usual main event rules.

If Jake Paul and Mike Tyson do somehow go the distance, they will only complete eight rounds, compared to the usual 10 or 12.

Also, the rounds will each be two minutes instead of the regular three.

Personally, I’m not sure they are going to need all eight of them. I feel a knockout on the horizon.

However, they are wearing 14-ounce gloves which makes it harder.

Tyson in his prime could probably knock someone out with pillows on his hands, though. That’s how tough he was.

Jake Paul, speaking to Netflix from the dressing room:

I’m so happy he did that, it makes it real. When I beat his a**, nobody can say anything. I don’t care if we were friends before, this is real now and I am going to knock him out.

He just wanted any excuse to get riled up. I am in Mike Tyson’s head which is what makes me a very good fighter. No nerves right now. Once I get in the right I will get some nerves going, but I have been waiting for this my entire life. It’s a dream come true.

This night is really starting to cook now.

Two years after they delivered one of the greatest fights I have had the pleasure of witnessing, and now Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano will take to the ring again.

I am gassed for this one. If it’s even as half as good as the fight in 2022, we are in for a real treat.

This is the biggest women’s fight of all time. We are witnessing history.

Mario Barrios and Abel Ramos have just put on one hell of a fight, seeing out all 12 rounds.

They both look battered and in truth, I have no idea who won that fight.

And neither do the judges, they rule it a split draw which means Barrios retains his welterweight title.

Try telling these fans that this is not an interesting fight, eh?

We have our first batch of fan predictions and it seems many are still backing the 58-year-old Iron Mike.

I mean, going off his open workout the other day, I can see why.

Do you agree with them, will Mike Tyson unload a huge right hook to finish off Jake Paul?

He would certainly have done it in his pomp… but that was 30-35 years ago.

To say this fight is controversial is an understatement.

It is one that has divided opinion worldwide due to te mammoth 31-year age gap between the two fighters.

However, while people rightfully moan, it is set to bring in one of the biggest gates in boxing history, if not the biggest.

Everybody is talking about it, and everybody will be watching. I know so many of my British friends who are waking up at 4am to catch a glimpse.

It’s such a weird scenario because it is not a fight I ever imagined would happen, and is not one that is loved.

However, it could be the grandest we have ever seen.

Jake Paul is too now like Elvis… in the building. I will see myself out.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer has arrived with his girlfriend Jutta Leerdam on his arm. Power couple.

He is giving me the aura of Conor McGregor for some reason, he just has that look of ‘I’ve got a lot of money’.

He will be changing that suit for boxing shorts very soon, though.

Now this is what you call great access.

Mail Sport’s reporter on the ground in Texas, Charlotte Daly, has been allowed into Mike Tyson’s dressing room.

It’s fair to say, the 58-year-old is looking relaxed.

This photo resembles how my dad looks when he is watching Premier League footie on a Sunday evening,

He doesn’t exactly like he is about to fight in front of 70,000 people.

I mean, you can’t knock it.

Just listen to that roar…

This clip alone tells you exactly who the sell-out crowd in Dallas are rooting for tonight.

The former undisputed champ has arrived and that means the fight is only getting closer and closer.

You are all allowed to get truly excited now.

Lennox Lewis: Mike Tyson’s gonna win. He’s not that old. Don’t take him too softly. We’re one year apart. You can fight somebody like that and do well, because the person you’re fighting is not a true fighter and there’s a hundred things that you’ve forgotten that he’s learning.

Anthony Joshua: He [Mike Tyson] is older now. I pray that he comes out healthy. I think Jake Paul [wins] because of youth – that’s the only thing.

Tyson Fury: If Mike Tyson hits anybody, I don’t care if he’s 90, he’s going to knock them out cold isn’t he? He’s Iron Mike Tyson, the baddest man on the planet. Jake Paul is very experienced now and he’s had a lot of fights but obviously, I have to back Mike Tyson for the knockout as he always backs me.

If this video doesn’t get you pumped up, I don’t know what will.

Mike Tyson has been a man of few words throughout the whole build up to this fight, but the three he posted earlier on X say everything.

The Baddest Man on the Planet is well and truly ready to turn back the clock and show that knockout power once more.

Watching this clip has the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. I’m so excited.

We are looking at a very different Jake Paul tonight.

The YouTuber doesn’t usually fight at heavyweight, in fact, this is the first time that he is.

Usually, we see him around the 190lbs mark, but he is nowhere near that tonight.

Paul has certainly been eating good this camp, that’s for sure. Yesterday he weighed in at 227.2lbs, just a pound less than Mike Tyson.

To put that into perspective, he only weighed 184lbs when he lost to Tommy Fury last year.

It will be interesting to see how he handles that extra weight around the ring.

Jake Paul, speaking to Netflix, after the weigh-in on Thursday night:

I didn’t even feel it, he’s an angry little elf. That was a cute slap, Mike. I am f***ing him up, I am f***ing him up – it’s personal now. He must die!

We simply have to talk about this.

Last night’s weigh-in ceremony was pretty mundane until Mike Tyson decided to spice things up.

You could see he just had that look in his eye as he charged over to Jake Paul for their final face-off.

Then… bang. He slapped him.

Paul took it well, but there is no doubt that the slap shook him. It has certainly added an extra dimension to this evening.

Just watching it back is getting me hyped for this fight.

It’s already been a busy night…

The main card is truly in full flow and we have just three fights to go, including the big battle between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.

So, what do you have left to look forward to?

Here are the fights left on the card this evening:

• Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson
• Katie Taylor (c) vs Amanda Serrano – for WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring lightweight titles
• Mario Barrios (c) vs Abel Ramos – for WBC welterweight title

Oh, I am so excited for this one.

Yes, this fight is controversial for many reasons, but absolutely nobody in the boxing world wants to miss it.

They might pretend they do, but deep down they want to watch.

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul are set to take to the ring in roughly two hours, and then the talking will truly be over.

Knowing this sport, though, I wouldn’t rely on that time being accurate.

But anyway, we will use however many hours we have to build up the suspense, not that It really needs too much adding to.

Let’s get ready to rumble.
