Jake Paul’s boxing career continues to make headlines as he gears up for a new opponent on July 20th.
Originally slated to fight the legendary Mike Tyson at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, the bout was rescheduled to November 15th following Tyson’s recent ulcer flare-up. Despite this setback, Paul remains determined to stay active in the ring.
