Despite his age, fans are eagerly anticipating the return of the former heavyweight champion. The fight will take place at the 80,000-seat AT&T Stadium in Arlington and will be streamed live on Netflix.

Tyson has a record of 50-6 with 44 knockouts and has maintained that he still has what it takes to be a contender in the ring.

Paul has a record of 9-1 with six knockouts and has attracted attention from various boxers in recent years.
