Jake Paul is ready for the fight of his life and believes a knockout victory over Mike Tyson is destined to happen.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer will face the legendary Tyson this Friday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in a highly anticipated match streaming live on Netflix. This clash marks Paul’s most formidable challenge yet, as he steps into the ring against the 58-year-old former world champion known for his unparalleled knockout power.

Sitting down with Tyson in a face-to-face YouTube interview, Paul expressed his confidence and the significance of this fight for his career. “When it happens, it’s going to be a little bittersweet because I have love for him, but at the current moment, we’re meant to go to war,” Paul said. “I’ve dreamed this, manifested it… this is finally my moment and my time to shine, and I’m going to show the world who the f*ck I am.”

Despite his bravado, Paul acknowledged the risks. Tyson, with 44 of his 50 wins coming by knockout, is renowned for his ferocity. “This is the baddest man on the planet… He’s a killer and has all the power still,” Paul said, noting that his mother is so worried she won’t watch the fight. Still, Paul remains unwavering: “It’s already written.”

Tyson, who hasn’t fought in a sanctioned match since 2015, brushed off Paul’s confidence, stating, “I don’t look at my life as a legacy. Legacy to me means ego. Who the f*ck cares about my legacy? I’m going to be dead soon one day. But he’s not going to win.” Paul responded with respect but firm conviction, “I respect your opinion, but it’s just my time. The universe knows it, the gods know it, and you’re going to know it.”

The fight is more than just a spectacle; it’s a clash of two eras, with Tyson seeking a triumphant send-off after his 2005 loss to Kevin McBride. Tyson made his intentions clear, “I’m not going to lose, so I can’t even fathom losing. He’s not going to win.”

Paul is ready for a brutal battle. “I know it’s going to be a war. A war of ages… You could rip my head off. I can go down to the canvas. You can f*ck me up, I could be bleeding from everywhere, and I’m not going to stop, and I know that’s the same for you.”

As fight night approaches, fans are on the edge of their seats for what promises to be an unforgettable showdown.
