Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul: Tale of the tape

Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul. There has been plenty of chatter and analysis about who has the advantage in the ring for Friday’s fight.

There is no question Tyson holds the experience edge. He turned pro at 18, is a former heavyweight champion and is known for his debilitating blows. Now, he is returning to the ring at 58 for his first sanctioned bout since 2005.
