A NEW date for the Netflix fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson has been set.
The YouTuber will now face the heavyweight legend on November 15.
Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will now get into the ring on November 15
Tyson suffered a health scare last week which led to the postponement
Paul believes the fight will ‘change the world’
Paul, 27, and Tyson, 57, will still fight at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas as originally planned.
The bout was postponed last week after Iron Mike suffered a health scare.
Tyson fell ill while flying from Miami to LA due to an ulcer flare up.
A member of his team subsequently insisted he was “doing great” but doctors deemed him unfit to fight.
Instead, he is now undergoing a period of rest and recovery before resuming training.
The main event in November will be Tyson’s first professional fight in 19 years.
And he will be 58 years old when the date comes around.
Reflecting on the postponement after it was announced, social media star Paul said: “Obviously, devastating news.
“I’m heartbroken, speechless, gutted. You [Tyson] said you wanna do this in Q4, I’m ready.
“You just need a little bit of time, so I’m ready whenever you are.
“This is too big of an opportunity and I think this fight is going to change the world and I turn all my Ls into Ws and that’s a motto I live by.
“We’ve been working so hard over here in this camp.
“I just feel bad for everyone involved in this event, the undercard. The opportunity has been ripped from all of us.”
