Jake Paul fires back with video to social media trolls ahead of Mike Tyson fight

We're just one week away from the highly anticipated Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight, which was originally scheduled for July 20, but had to be postponed due to Tyson's health concerns. Now everything is set for the fight to be streamed on Netflix from AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys. I'm sure no one really knows what to expect, but let's hope it lives up to the hype, especially with the 31-year age difference between the two fighters.

Jake Paul responds to jokes about him

With the fight date so close, the hype has been ramping up. Over 100,000 people are expected to attend, with millions more tuning in on Netflix. Recently, Netflix's official account shared a video of Jake Paul - who has had a remarkable journey in boxing, boasting a 10-1 record - responding to comments mocking him ahead of his fight with Tyson.

It would have been funny to see more jokes about the age difference, as the 31 year difference is definitely unprecedented; my favorite joke was about the ear biting incident, with Paul's response staying true to his unique style. Personally, I want Tyson to win, and I feel that this fight could be a lose-lose situation for Paul - either he beats a retired boxer or he gets beaten by him, and I don't think there's anything to be proud of.

As for the fight itself, while Jake Paul, at 27, has the advantage in youth and athleticism, you can't dismiss Tyson's incredible record of 50 wins out of 58 fights, with 44 knockouts. Tyson still holds his legacy as the youngest heavyweight champion in history, unifying the WBC, WBA and IBF titles at the age of 20.

All ready for the fight

Although Paul is an impressive 10-1, he'll need more than physical preparation to handle the mental toughness and psychological edge that Tyson brings to the ring. Plus, none of Paul's previous fights have generated the excitement of this one, so he'll also have to deal with the pressure of a stadium packed with nearly 100,000 spectators. So make sure your Netflix subscription is up to date, because this is one fight where anything can happen!
