Paul had been due to fight Mike Tyson this weekend but that bout has been postponed until November.
Jake Paul will be back in action this weekend as he goes head-to-head in the boxing ring with former UFC star Mike Perry.
The influencer had originally been due to fight ring legend Mike Tyson on Saturday, but the 57-year old suffered a health scare after a flight back in May, caused by an ulcer flare-up, which resulted in the fight being pushed back to 15th November.
Paul will instead take on another former UFC star in the form of Perry, who has turned to bare-knuckle boxing in recent years.
Paul recently acknowledged that he’ll need to be on his A-game because, if anything does go awry, his fight with Tyson might be out the window.
“Nov 15, Tyson is still on – Dallas, Texas. Get through this one – [I’m] focused on this one,” Paul said on The Pat McAfee Show about being double-booked.
He continued: “Mike Perry’s not a joke, and it is a big risk because if I lose this one, obviously the Mike Tyson fight goes away. So there’s a lot at stake here, and that is creating a bit of pressure to deal with. But I usually thrive the best under high-pressure situations.”
