Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul stats: Complete boxing record, results

After months of waiting, the day has finally arrived. Friday night, 58-year-old Mike Tyson returns to the ring for just the second time in 20 years to take on 27-year-old Jake Paul, the YouTuber-turned-boxer looking to gain credibility in the boxing world.

It’s a fight unlike anything we’ve ever seen. And after the weigh-ins got heated with Tyson slapping Paul, the anticipation for this fight has built to heights most people wouldn’t have thought possible.

Before the pair start their bout though, here’s a look at each fighter’s career boxing stats.

Mike Tyson last fight

Mike Tyson’s last official fight came in 2005, a defeat at the hands of Kevin McBride via sixth-round TKO. Since then, Tyson has avoided the ring almost entirely. He returned for an exhibition match in November 2020 against former heavyweight champion Roy Jones Jr.

Most people who witnessed that exhibition bout believe Tyson dominated the fight. However, the contest was ruled a draw.

Jake Paul last fight 

Jake Paul’s most recent fight came earlier this year on July 20. Paul defeated Mike Perry via sixth-round TKO after putting Perry on the floor three times. July 20 was originally supposed to be the date for Tyson vs. Paul; however, Tyson suffered an ulcer flare-up just before the date, pushing the match back to Nov. 15.

Mike Tyson record, results and history

Mike Tyson career record: 50-6 (44 KOs), with 2 no-contests

At 20 years and 4 months old, Mike Tyson became the youngest heavyweight champion in boxing history in 1986 after defeating Trevor Berbick. Tyson’s record still stands to this day.

Tyson started his career with a 37-0 record with 33 knockouts. Tyson’s first loss came in shocking fashion to Buster Douglas in 1990. After a nearly three-year prison sentence, Tyson returned to boxing in 1995 and won four straight fights, before losing back-to-back bouts against Evander Holyfield. Following those defeats, Tyson fought just 10 more times before retiring. He went 5-3 with two no-contests in that span.

Jake Paul record, results and history

Jake Paul career record: 10-1 (7 KOs)

Paul’s professional boxing career began in January 2020 with a win over Ali Eson Gib. Since then, Paul has had a plethora of fights against former NBA players and former MMA fighters, including well-respected fighters like Anderson Silva and Ben Askren. Although neither of those fighters are known for their prowess in boxing.

Paul’s only loss came on Feb. 26, 2023 against Tommy Fury. Fury won by split-decision. Since then, Paul has won each of his last four fights.
