Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson Fight analysis from experts
Finally, we end this guide to the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight, with some expert analysis from some legendary names from the pain game.
Lennox Lewis - Former heavyweight champion and Tyson opponent
"Mike Tyson's gonna win. He's not that old. Don't take him too softly. 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."
Back Mike Tyson to beat Jake Paul
Bob Arum - Legendary Boxing Hall of Fame promotor
"A 58-year-old guy, no matter how good they were, no matter how athletic they were, are not gonna be able to fight. You can't throw punches like you're supposed to, you can't do a lot of things. I hope Mike doesn't get hurt, but I really give him relatively no chance."
Back Jake Paul to beat Mike Tyson
Roy Jones Jr - Former multi-weight world champion who fought Tyson in a 2020 exhibition match
"Well, I like Mike, probably by decision. But if he chooses to go out and take him out, I think he can. However, I feel like if he feels comfortable he will just box and enjoy himself because why get in shape to go one round?"
Back Mike Tyson to win on points or decision against Jake Paul
Sean O'Malley - Former UFC bantamweight champion and business partner of Jake Paul
"I just feel like Jake is too locked in it, been in it too long, in the last five years who's been in it more? I think that matters. He's what, 30 years younger? I just don't see this ending well for Uncle Mike."
Back Jake Paul to win by points or decision against Mike Tyson
Frank Monkhouse - Betfair boxing tipster and former professional fighter
"I think both men will go through the motions, with Mike pulling his punches and Paul playing it safe. It's a no-win situation for Jake. If he mixes it with Tyson, he'll be seriously hurt. But if he beats up an old man, he'll attract huge amounts of hate and anger."
