Anthony Joshua’s prediction regarding the outcome of the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul bout

Anthony Joshua has gained media attention by endorsing the YouTuber before of the much awaited fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. This fight, which is slated for July 20 and will be aired live on Netflix, has drawn a lot of interest even though it was first classified as an exhibition.

Speculation regarding the result has only increased since Tyson made it clear that a fight will take place. According to reports, both boxers might decide to use 16-ounce gloves rather than the customary ten-ounce ones, presumably to lessen the force of their blows. There are also rumors that the fight will take place in two-minute rounds.

“This is a fight. I don’t think he’s faster than me. I’ve seen a YouTube video of him at [age] 16 doing weird dancing. That’s not the guy I’m fighting.

“This is a guy who’s really going to try and hurt me, which I’m accustomed to, and he’s going to be greatly mistaken. Right now, I’m scared to death. As the fight gets closer, the less nervous I become because it’s reality, and in reality I’m invincible.”

Due to commissions’ worries over Tyson’s age difference (he is 58 years old, while Paul is much younger), the fight was not approved as a professional fight. Nevertheless, Joshua has stated that he thinks Paul has the advantage against Tyson now that the event has been approved.

“I personally think it’s really good,” Joshua stated.
