Jake Paul Challenges Mike Tyson to Fight Under New Rules

In a bold move, YouTuber Jake Paul has challenged boxing legend Mike Tyson to a fight consisting of ten three-minute rounds, a significant deviation from the previously agreed-upon format. The two were initially set to face off in Texas last month, but Tyson had to withdraw due to a flare-up of an ulcer. The bout has since been rescheduled for November, with Paul recently securing a knockout victory against bare-knuckle boxer Perry, who stepped in for Tyson. During a press conference in New York, Paul confronted Tyson about the fight's structure, suggesting that the round lengths be altered. Tyson had previously advised Paul to be in good shape, to which Paul responded by questioning Tyson's own fitness and challenging him to the longer round format. Tyson remained largely unresponsive to the challenge, only cautioning Paul to "be careful." Paul, undeterred, expressed his confidence in defeating Tyson, emphasizing his determination to prove critics wrong. He acknowledged Tyson's formidable reputation, calling him "the greatest heavyweight of all time," but insisted that he was ready for the challenge. Paul declared his intention to deliver a memorable performance, stating, "I'm here to make history... I was born for this moment." As the fight approaches, the tension between the two fighters continues to build, setting the stage for a highly anticipated showdown.
