Netflix’s highly anticipated boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson has been rescheduled for Friday, November 15, 2024. The fight will take place inside AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Originally scheduled for July 20, the fight was postponed on May 31 after Tyson suffered an ulcer that forced him to pause training for the foreseeable future.

“Although we had to postpone the fight, I will resume training shortly. I am thankful to the medical staff that treated me and to MVP, Netflix, and AT&T Stadium for working diligently to find the best reschedule date for all parties,” Tyson said in a press release. “While we have a new date, the result will be the same no matter when we fight. Jake Paul is getting knocked out.”

“Paul vs. Tyson is the most cross-generational sporting event in history, and we are committed to providing fans worldwide with this unforgettable night of boxing, live globally on Netflix,” said Nakisa Bidarian, co-founder of Most Valuable Promotions. “We look forward to seeing everyone on Friday, November 15, for a showdown that will be talked about for generations to come.”

After starting his career as a vlogger and internet superstar, Paul has become a full-time boxer with a record of 9-1 with six knockouts. Meanwhile, Tyson is a former heavyweight champion boxer with a career record of 50-6, with 44 knockouts. Tyson has not fought professionally since 2005.

The co-main event will feature the rematch between undisputed super lightweight world champion Katie Taylor (23-1, 6 KOs) and unified featherweight champion Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano (46-2-1, 30 KOs).

The fight between Paul and Tyson is another push from Netflix to boost its live programming. Last month, The Roast of Tom Brady became one of Netflix’s most popular TV shows for several weeks. Later this year, Netflix will broadcast two NFL games on Christmas. In January 2025, WWE Raw will begin streaming on Netflix for at least the next 10 years.

Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight card: Who’s boxing tonight?

jake paul vs tommy fury fight card espn promotional image

While the two braggadocios main fighters of tonight's boxing match are certainly causing a lot of buzz, the rest of the Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight card is just as exciting. In fact, many boxing fans are tuning in for the undercards rather than for Paul or Fury. It's sure to be a fun night of intense face offs, with the potential for a couple knockouts. The fights are in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and start at 2 p.m. ET on Sunday, February 26. Here is a breakdown of the Jake Paul vs Tommy Furry full fight card, including the boxing record for each fighter, so you know exactly what to expect when you tune in to the Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury live stream later today.

Of course the stars of the show are Jake Paul (6-0, 4 KOs), the provocative YouTuber the fans lover to hate, and Tommy Fury (8-0, 4 KOs), the brother of champion boxer Tyson Fury and a longtime enemy of Paul. The focus of their rivalry has been less on their physical abilities and more on their trash talking. The two have been at each others' throats since 2021 when their first scheduled fight was cancelled. This match has been pushed back more than once, with the last one being cancelled due to Fury being barred from entering the US. That's the main reason this fight is happening in Saudi Arabia -- neutral ground. Whatever your feelings on the two may be, both are undefeated, so tensions will be high.
