Boxing was a big deal in the late 70s and even the 80s. When Mike Tyson fought, the whole world was watching, not just sports fans. Now, Mike Tyson will again turn boxing into a worldwide event everyone will watch. This time, it will be with Netflix's help that Mike Tyson gets back in the ring to fight Jake Paul.

On July 20th, Netflix will host its first live combat sports event, which will be between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.

How to watch Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson on Netflix?

Netflix changed the game for entertainment, and they are doing it again with their first live combat sports stream with two of the world’s most popular boxers. When Jake Paul and Mike Tyson face off at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, anyone with a Netflix subscription can watch the fight live.

This is a smart move from Netflix, which has been struggling with the rising competition of other online streaming platforms in recent years. Jake Paul is very popular amongst younger viewers because of his career on YouTube and will likely draw in many new Netflix subscribers. At the same time, Mike Tyson has been an extremely popular cultural figure for decades. A Netflix subscription is much more affordable than one normally pays for a boxing PPV event. In South Africa, Netflix subscription plans start at as low as R49 per month. Not a bad price if you want to watch Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson live.

No South African sports betting sites have released odds for the fight yet, but we scoured the internet and found the sites that have odds so far. Granted, these odds will probably change a lot over the next month or two as more sports betting sites release odds and start taking bets on the Paul vs Tyson fight.

Even though these odds will change, seeing the line is interesting. Jake Paul is the favourite to win the fight at 1.28, and Mike Tyson is the underdog at 4.00.

Whether you like Jake Paul or not, there is no denying that his boxing skills have greatly improved during his boxing career.

That’s worth keeping in mind before placing your bets.

Can Mike Tyson Beat Jake Paul?

Many boxing analysts consider Mike Tyson the best boxer to compete in the sport. His fighting record stands at 50-6, with 44 of those fights ending with Tyson knocking out his opponent. That said, Mike Tyson is 57-years-old. That’s 30 years older than his opponent, Paul. That is also why Paul is the clear favourite at this point. But even at 57, Mike Tyson punches harder than any opponent Paul has fought. The threat of Paul getting KO’d has never been bigger. After all, every boxing fight Mike Tyson has had throughout has been against other professional boxers. Tyson’s experience could be the big equaliser against Paul
