Jake Paul vs. Mike Perry preview
The bout originally scheduled for July was postponed to the fall after a health scare for the 58-year-old in May. However, the boxing legend has been cleared and is expected to be ready on November 11. The incident added to the criticism of the booking but it is nonetheless expected to garner a lot of interest.
True punching power: Paul has legitimate pop in his right hand that needs to be taken seriously. Even pound-for-pound superstar Terence Crawford respects the power that the YouTuber-turned-boxer has. However, Tyson is one of the biggest punchers in boxing history and power is often the final athletic characteristic fighters lose in their later years.
It will be apparent early on who is the bigger puncher and which man can take it.
Weathering the early storm: Fight fans who saw his bout against Roy Jones in 2020, and video of his recent sparring, know Mike Tyson still has some athleticism left in his aging body. However, will he be able to sustain that for more than a couple of rounds against a man 30 years younger?
If Paul can avoid a knockout early and weather the Tyson storm, the fight becomes a pick ’em the longer it goes.
The bottom line: Both fighters have clear advantages. Yet this is one of the few times Paul is facing somebody his own size or bigger. Tyson is a serious threat to get a KO early. But his foe has an equally real shot to catch him with something he doesn’t see coming. This one should be wild and highly entertaining.
