Boxing icon Mike Tyson will return to the ring after a 19-year hiatus, facing the popular YouTuber Jake Paul in a highly anticipated showdown at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Saturday, November 16.
Tyson, who has not fought since June 11, 2005, when he faced Kevin McBride, will be stepping back into the ring at the age of 58. That previous bout ended in a sixth-round retirement, despite Tyson holding a lead on two of the judges' scorecards, marking the end of his storied career at the time.
