Mike Tyson climbs back into the ring to take on Jake Paul Friday night. Here is how to watch.
One of the most anticipated boxing events — or perhaps more accurately most anticipated entertainment events — of 2024 has arrived. The long-awaited bout between 58-year-old former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul is scheduled for Friday night from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Thankfully the fight is scheduled for after sundown, so there will be no issues with glare …
The fight was originally scheduled to take place this summer, but the veteran boxer fell ill with an ulcer, forcing the fight to be rescheduled. But if anything that just allowed for more time for the hard feelings to fester, illustrated by Tyson slapping Paul at Thursday’s weigh-in.
Here is when, and how, to watch.
When is the Tyson vs. Paul fight scheduled?

Where is the Tyson vs. Paul fight taking place?
The long-awaited bout is taking place at AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys. The stadium has been in the news in recent days but for different reasons, specifically the unique layout of the stadium, which can create a sun glare during afternoon NFL games. For example, Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb missed a throw in his direction in Dallas’ loss last Sunday to the Philadelphia Eagles, and called for curtains to be installed at the stadium following the game.
