Uncrowned has Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul results, live round-by-round updates, start time and highlights for the Tyson vs. Paul fight card on Friday at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Legendary former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson faces YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul in a blockbuster, eight-round professional boxing match live on Netflix.

Tyson (50-6, 44 KOs) last competed in a November 2020 exhibition match against fellow Hall of Famer Roy Jones Jr., which ended in a split draw. Now 58 years old, Tyson's most recent professional in-ring appearance came nearly 20 years ago, in a sixth-round TKO loss to Kevin McBride in 2005. He will be almost three decades older than Paul when the two collide. Tyson slapped Paul across the face at Thursday's final faceoff, kicking off a near-melee in a wild scene.

Paul (10-1, 7 KOs) has defeated a motley array of opposition since kicking off his professional boxing career in 2020, knocking out the NBA's Nate Robinson, MMA's Tyron Woodley and Ben Askren, and most recently bare-knuckle boxing standout Mike Perry. The 27-year-old former Disney star has also beaten MMA legends Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz on points. His lone loss in the ring came in a 2023 split decision at the hands of Tommy Fury, the younger brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.

Tyson vs. Paul will be contested under modified rules, featuring eight two-minute rounds rather than the usual three-minute rounds in men's boxing, and with heavier 14-ounce gloves rather than the usual 10-ounce gloves for professional heavyweight bouts. The fight will go on both competitors' pro records.

In the much-anticipated co-featured bout, Katie Taylor (23-1, 6 KOs) and Amanda Serrano (47-2-1, 31 KOs) rematch their April 2022 thriller with Taylor's super lightweight titles on the line. Ireland's Taylor, 38, defeated Puerto Rico's Serrano, 36, in a divisive split decision (97-93, 96-94, 94-96) in their first meeting, which served as the first women's boxing bout to headline Madison Square Garden and was widely praised as 2022's Fight of the Year.

The Tyson vs. Paul start time for the preliminary card is at 5:30 p.m. ET on the Netflix Sports’ and MVP Promotions’ YouTube channels. The main card airs live at 8 p.m. ET, free for Netflix subscribers.

Watch the Tyson vs. Paul live stream on Uncrowned here beginning at 5:30 p.m. ET.

  • Neeraj Goyat vs. Whindersson Nunes prediction

    160 pounds: Neeraj Goyat vs. Whindersson Nunes

    Paul vs. Tyson can't be topped in the "freak show" category, but Friday's card also has this one to give it a good run for its money.

    Whindersson Nunes, 29, is a Brazilian YouTuber who followed the Paul blueprint and decided he wanted to box. His success rate has been mixed in his amateur matches thus far. Like Paul, Nunes went against MMA fighters and fellow YouTubers before he made his pro debut in September 2023, which he lost to Thai YouTuber "My Mate Nate."

    What am I even typing here?

    The 33-year-old Neeraj Goyat is an actual 18-4-2 pro boxer and 2-0 MMA fighter with several national and international accolades. This is a thing that is happening.

    Pick: Goyat

  • On-site report: Shadasia Green def. Melinda Watpool

    ARLINGTON, Texas — Shadasia Green made the most of her second shot at a women’s super middleweight title Friday night.

    Green outpointed previously undefeated Melinda Watpool on two scorecards and won their 10-round, 168-pound championship match by split decision on the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul undercard at AT&T Stadium. Green (15-1, 11 KOs), of Paterson, New Jersey, won the vacant WBO super middleweight title by beating Toronto’s Watpool (7-1, 2 KOs) in the last of three bouts streamed on Netflix Sports’ YouTube channel.

    Judges Lisa Giampa (97-93) and Justin Reyes (96-94) scored seven and six rounds, respectively, for Green. Judge Jeremy Hayes scored Watpool a 96-94 winner.

    The action now shifts to Netflix for four more matches at 8 p.m. ET.

    The stronger Green mostly remained in control and seemingly piled up points in her largely uneventful encounter with Watpool. She knocked Watpool off balance by landing her right hand about 35 seconds into the sixth round.

    Watpool survived some trouble later in the sixth round as well. She didn’t consistently connect with flush punches on Green, however, and other than during the ninth round had little success offensively against a more aggressive Green.

    Two fights before the crowning achievement of Green’s career, she dropped a 10-round unanimous decision to former undisputed super middleweight champ Franchon Crews-Dezurn (9-2, 2 KOs). Green and Baltimore’s Crews-Dezurn fought for the then-unclaimed WBC super middleweight crown this past December 15 at Caribe Royale Orlando in Orlando, Florida.

    The 35-year-old Green, a former point guard for Old Dominion University, is represented by Paul’s MVP Promotions.
