Can you believe we are just five days away from the mega Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight? As the anticipation builds, the latest update has revealed one of Tyson’s sons will be part of the commentary team alongside other big names. Paul and Tyson will butt heads on November 15th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The Netflix-exclusive bout will feature eight two-minute rounds, with both boxers wearing 14-ounce gloves—a rare choice for a boxing match sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). Regardless, the burning question is: which of Tyson’s sons will join the commentary team, and who else will be alongside him?

First on the list is TV personality Sibley Scoles, who you may have also seen in Raiders: Talk of the Nation and in-game host for the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders. Then there is Kody ‘Big Mo’ Mommaerts—a ring announcer for Boxxer, who has previously appeared on Sky Sports. And then there’s of course, Tyson’s son, Amir Tyson. 

Amir was born to Mike and his second wife Monica Turner. Interestingly, Amir graduated from the American University in Washington DC with a bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism. “Super excited to be working this event with an amazing team for the biggest and most viewed boxing fight of the 21st century. Thank you @netflix,” Amir wrote after the announcement.

Also making an appearance, Canadian sports commentator Mauro Ranallo will call the play-by-play for the Paul fight. Joining Ranallo is former undefeated world champion and Tyson’s last opponent Roy Jones Jr. However, Jones isn’t the only one on the roster with in-ring experience. Also in the broadcast crew, former world champion and host of the boxing podcast ‘All The Smoke Fight’, Andre Ward also joins the team of commentators. 

Others include Oscar-nominated actress and avid fight fan Rosie Perez, veteran broadcaster Kate Scott, renowned MMA journalist Ariel Helwani, and experienced MMA commentator Sean Wheelock. With the team now officially confirmed, the only question left is: when can you expect them to go live?
