The match will take place on July 20, 2024, at AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys and will be streamed live on Netflix, according to Hollywood Reporter. 


So far there has been no word as to whether this is going to be an exhibition fight or a pro fight, but you know thousands of people are going to be tuning in to watch regardless.

Tyson last fought in an exhibition match in 2020. His last professional fight was in 2005. Meanwhile, Paul has gained widespread social media popularity while honing in on his boxing skills.

I've seen a ton of videos of Tyson working out recently and at 58 years old the dude looks like he can still hit. Paul's young age will definitely play a factor, but if Tyson is able to get one solid punch in, this could be a short fight.

Then again, what if this is just scripted and during the fight, Mr. T. and Hulk Hogan come in and body slam both of them to take the title?

Tune in on July 20 on Netflix to see.

Who do you got - Tyson or Paul?
