Renowned figure on social media, Jake Paul, is getting ready for what might prove to be his most challenging test so far as he readies himself to confront Mike Tyson.
The anticipated face-off is set to happen at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in July this year, with the live broadcast scheduled on Netflix. Leading up to the match, there has been speculation surrounding Tyson risking his well-being; however, since it is likely to be an exhibition fight, both competitors are expected to approach it with a lighter demeanor.
Prior to the bout, it came to light that Jake Paul had significantly increased his physique and looked bulkier for the upcoming match. While Paul has previously competed at 185lbs, his current mass is reportedly around 230lbs.
Interestingly, Paul asserts that despite his enlarged size, he still maintains his agility. This viewpoint was reiterated by boxing veteran Shane Mosley, who remarked:
“I encountered Jake yesterday, he’s 230 pounds. He’s massive, truly massive. He mentioned feeling as swift as he did at 185.”
Jake Paul Suggests $10 Million for MMA Encounter with Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz
Jake Paul recently proposed an intriguing deal to former UFC combatants Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz. With four years since his debut as a professional boxer, Paul has taken on prominent adversaries such as Anderson Silva, Tommy Fury, and Tyron Woodley.
Moreover, there were discussions of a potential bout between Paul and Jorge Masvidal previously, though that didn’t come to fruition, leading to a showdown with Nate Diaz instead.
During a recent installment of his podcast, Jake Paul demonstrated his serious intent in entering the MMA scene against either Masvidal or Diaz. He declared:
“My commitment to compete in MMA is sincere, either against Masvidal or Nate in the PFL.”
It remains uncertain if such a confrontation will materialize in the time ahead.
