Not only will it mark Netflix’s first move into live boxing but it will also be Paul’s first fight at heavyweight.

The lightest the American, 27, has weighed is 183.6lb (13st 1lb) but his last two bouts have been at the 200lb cruiserweight limit of 14st 4lb.

Whereas Tyson was a career heavyweight at 15st 7lb, meaning Paul must pile on the pounds to match that.

During a stream with Adin Ross, he revealed his target weight for the bout will be the same 220lb mark of 15st 7lb.

That means having to put on over a stone in weight from now till the time he gets in the ring with boxing’s most feared fighter.

Tyson, 57, retired in 2005 only to return in 2020 for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr, which ended in an eight-round draw.

Meanwhile Paul is 9-1 as a boxer and suffered his only defeat to Tommy Fury, 24, in February 2023 but he has won three since.

Exact rules and regulations of his mega-fight with Tyson, likes rounds and whether it will be professionally sanctioned or not are yet to be released.

But Paul’s business partner and Most Valuable Promotions co-founder Nakisa Bidarian confirmed headguards will NOT be worn.

Bidarian posted on Instagram: “Unequivocally there is no headgear for Paul vs Tyson.

“Haters spreading fake news but it won’t stop the 10’s of millions of views.”
