Jake Paul and 58-year-old Mike Tyson are set to face off in a highly anticipated, Netflix-backed boxing match scheduled for November 15 at AT&T Stadium. Tensions escalated during the weigh-in when Tyson slapped Paul in the face after Paul reportedly stepped on Tyson's foot. Following the incident, Paul referred to Tyson as an 'angry little elf' and declared that it was 'personal now.' Earlier, Paul confronted undercard fighters, including Katie Taylor, Mario Barrios, and Bruce 'Shu Shu' Carrington, who predicted he would lose to Tyson. He made side bets totaling $3 million with those who doubted him and wagered his entire $40 million purse on the outcome of the fight. Katie Taylor responded to Paul's challenge by asking, 'Do you want to bet your purse?' The bout is expected to drive record betting, with bookmakers anticipating it to be the most bet-on boxing match in history.
