YouTuber Jake Paul is set to fight former UFC fighter Mike Perry tonight after his bout with Mike Tyson was postponed.
The 27-year-old was due to box against the 58-year-old Tyson this weekend, but the former world heavyweight champion suffered a recurrence of an ulcer while on a plane in May. The incident meant the Paul-Tyson bout was postponed until November, but Paul is determined to stay in the ring and will now face Perry.
The same goes for Amanda Serrano, who is scheduled to fight this weekend in her rematch with Katie Taylor before the two clash in November.
Paul's opponent, Perry, 32, is a former UFC fighter who has been active since moving to the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship. Can he hand Paul (9-1) just the second loss of his professional boxing career?
