Nov 14, 2024
TOPEKA (KSNT) - The Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight will be aired Friday night. Here's where to watch it in Topeka.
The Tyson-Paul fight was scheduled to happen in July but needed to be postponed after Tyson had a medical episode on a plane. The rescheduled fight is set for Friday, Nov. 15 and will be held at the home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys in Arlington, Texas.
The fight won't be on the typical pay-per-view format. Instead, anyone with a Netflix subscription will be able to stream it from home.

The fight is scheduled for eight two-minute rounds instead of the normal three minutes and 10 or 12 rounds for most pro fights. The fighters will don heavier gloves to help decrease the power of punches.
Paul stands to make $40 million and Tyson about $20 million, according to The Associated Press.
