Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul full results and highlights: Paul dominates Tyson in lackluster Netflix showdown
Mike Tyson may be in stellar shape for a 58-year-old, but Father Time still waits for no man. The Hall of Fame former heavyweight champion dropped a one-sided unanimous decision to Jake Paul, 27, on Friday at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, losing nearly every round on the scorecards and very much looking like an older man fighting someone more than three decades his junior.
In the end, the three ringside judges scored it 80-72, 79-73, and 79-73 for Paul, giving the YouTuber turned pugilist another living legend on his résumé. Because the bout was a sanctioned professional contest, the result will now go on both fighters' official professional records.
Tyson (50-7, 44 KOs) slowed significantly after the opening round and by the end Paul (11-1, 7 KOs) appeared content to ride out the decision and not inflict further punishment on his aging foe.
Post-fight, Tyson indicated that he may compete in boxing again despite the loss.
In the much-anticipated co-featured bout, Katie Taylor (24-1, 6 KOs) once again defeated Amanda Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KOs) in an instant classic marred by divisive scorecards. Ireland's Taylor, 38, took at trio of 95-94 scores over Puerto Rico's Serrano, 36, to win a split decision and defend her super lightweight titles in another Fight of the Year contender.
Taylor won a split decision (97-93, 96-94, 94-96) over Serrano in their first meeting as well, an April 2022 thriller which served as the first women's boxing bout to headline Madison Square Garden and was widely praised as 2022's Fight of the Year.

Jake Paul clearly wanted to do just enough to win without ever really hurting Tyson and he did that. Also made a bunch of money for everyone involved. So … mission accomplished?

We all need a shower and a confession after watching this. 😔 #TysonPaul

Really hope Jake Paul doesn’t throw out his back carrying Mike Tyson.

I'm sad watching this. Tyson looks like Tyson, but nothing left under the hood. #boxing #PaulTyson

Tyson can't come forward because his knees are gone. He can only move side to side. Pathetic scenes and the soundtrack is filled with boos #PaulTyson
— Tom Gray (@Tom_Gray_Boxing) November 16, 2024
Boxing is a dangerous sport, and the fact that a 58-year-old man with 215 professional rounds under his belt who can barely walk was cleared to fight is a disgrace. The boxing world was failed by those who are supposed to regulate it #PaulTyson

Some boos raining down. Not a great look/vibe imo. My watch party feels bad for @MikeTyson.
Ladies stole the show, maybe— Michael Woods (@Woodsy1069) November 16, 2024
Tyson trying to box on his toes and avoid Paul is evidence enough that this "fight" should end after Round 4. Tyson's corner needs to do the right thing. #TysonPaul

Good head movement from Mike but can’t get off the offense

As expected, this is really, really sad to watch. #TysonPaul

I’ve never been so irritated trying to watch Netflix in my life. Three screens open, constantly refreshing resulting in catching just seconds of the top two fights.

Say what you will about this fight but this is the first time in a loooong time where it feels like basically everybody is watching one thing and that thing is fight sports.

Katie!
No idea if that’s deserved or not. Commentary team seem disgusted. My stream was too dodgy to score it, seems like a missed a classic.
Looking forward to watching it back.— Peter Carroll (@PetesyCarroll) November 16, 2024

From what I've been able to watch, what an incredible fight between Taylor-Serrano. Wish I could see it all!

For those who are having the streaming struggles and can't see a full round, I'm leaning towards Taylor edging out more of the middle rounds but it's a toss-up, really.
— Drake Riggs (@DrakeRiggs_) November 16, 2024
Haven’t got a clue what’s going on round wise, stream is all over the gaff.
— Peter Carroll (@PetesyCarroll) November 16, 2024
Not that we didn't already know it, but Amanda Serrano is a badass. No surprise, either, but another spectacular slugfest. #TaylorSerrano2
