Where to watch the Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry fight

2024-07-21 04:15:02

Jake Paul (9-1, 6 KOs) is ready for a fight and it’s not with Mike Tyson.

The Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight was scheduled for July 20, but an ulcer flareup forced Tyson to withdraw from that date. In March, Tyson had been seen training in Tool singer Maynard James Keenan’s gym in Cottonwood, Arizona.

Now, the 27-year-old Paul will meet another opponent in the boxing ring. He and Mike Perry are scheduled to fight soon, and if Paul doesn’t win, his fight with Mike Tyson might be in jeopardy.

“(Tyson) was concerned about me taking this fight,’’ Paul told reporters Wednesday. “He’s like, ‘What is Jake thinking? This guy Mike Perry is a killer.’ So he had some concerns.”

“But Tyson, my message to you is don’t worry. I’m going to put this guy to sleep. This is a Mike appetizer and you’re next.’’
