Despite the huge age-gap and âIron Mikeâsâ recent health scare the fight will go ahead in just over two weeksâ time and will be broadcast live on Netflix.
It has emerged that Paul and Tyson will box over eight, two-minute rounds, rather than the traditional three minutes and they will battle it out in 14oz gloves instead of the usual 10oz mitts that are usually worn by professionals.
But, Hall of Fame boxing referee Richard Steele has sent âThe Problem Childâ a warning ahead of their showdown.
âThatâs still a small glove thinking about the power of Mike Tyson,â he told USA Today.
âI donât see the guy going that distance with Tyson. Because Tyson, heâs so strong and heâs an ex-champion.
âHe knows what heâs doing and for two minutes⌠he can go all out.â
âHeâs still dangerous, he has so much power⌠I just hope he donât end up getting hurt or hurt the other guy.â
