Paul and Tyson will finally fight on Nov. 15
As anticipation continues to build ahead of the Jake Paul - Mike Tyson bout in Texas on Nov. 15, the divide continues to grow between those who believe 58-year-old Tyson will swat aside his 27-year-old challenger -- and those who think Paul is going to vanquish the former heavyweight champion.
Whichever side of the aisle you're on, the Paul - Tyson bout is undoubtedly one of the most highly-anticipated pro fights in years. It will be streamed live on Netflix from AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys, and the 31-year age gap between the combatants is among the largest in the sport's history.
Russell Crowe and Joe Rogan sound off on Paul-Tyson
The three-decade age differential between Paul and Tyson as often cited as definitive proof that one boxer or the other will win this bout in November. Film star Russell Crowe is the latest to use that argument in support of his predicted winner: Iron Mike.
"The thing is, I was quite enjoying the second phase of Mike's life," Crowe told Joe Rogan on the latest episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience." "I was terrified of him as a boxer. He was terrifying. Even when I met him backstage at a stadium one time at a fight, I was like 'I'm still terrified of you.'"
