Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and YouTube boxing sensation Jake Paul are headed for a blockbuster night at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Meanwhile, fans from The Lone Star State have shared their prediction for the upcoming cross-generational bout—set to stream live on Netflix. 

With all the hype surrounding the bout, a representative from Most Valuable Promotions made their way to the Texas State Fair at the Fair Park in Dallas, Texas. While there, they spoke to a bunch of young fans about the upcoming fight in a clip now shared on Instagram with the caption reading, “MVP took to the Texas State Fair to ask fans who will win between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson on November 15th.”

Amid the flurry of family-friendly activities and exhibits at the fair, a crowd gathered around two towering inflatable statues of Paul and Tyson, as part of the promotional tour of their fight, their sheer size and presence commanding attention. Meanwhile, they were asked about their prediction for the upcoming showdown. One fan favored Tyson, explaining, “He’s just had more experience.”

Even the next fan had the same idea—and threw his prediction behind Mike Tyson, saying, “He’s the Iron Mike. He’s the greatest of all time.” However, Jake Paul supporters weren’t far behind—one fan backed ‘The Problem Child,’ claiming, “Jake Paul, obviously. Because I love Jake Paul and his brother.”

Another fan also chose Jake Paul, adding, “He’s been fighting people and he’s doing pretty good.” However, Tyson seems to have won the prediction war in Texas, as the last fan sided with the former undisputed heavyweight champion. The fan said, “I’ll say Mike Tyson. Because, I mean, he’s the best. Man, who would want to go against Mike, anyway?”

Meanwhile, two legends of the sport—both of whom famously defeated Mike Tyson—have weighed in with their predictions for the upcoming fight.

Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield on Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson

Who better to predict what Tyson could do than Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield? As it turns out, both Lewis and Holyfield agree on the outcome—Tyson will come out victorious despite the 31-year age gap between them. “Mike Tyson’s gonna win,” Lewis told Fox 29. “He’s not that old…if one of those punches catches [Paul] he’s definitely gonna go down.”

‘The Lion’ especially emphasized Tyson’s power and experience in the ring, noting that while Paul is still learning, Tyson’s years in the ring will give him the edge. Holyfield seemed to agree with this prediction, telling Fight Hub TV that Paul’s best bet is to stay close to Tyson. “If he tries to stay back from Mike, he’s going to get caught,” Holyfield said, warning that Tyson’s quick strikes are still dangerous.

That being said, while Texas fans seem quite divided on who will win the upcoming fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis and Evander Holyfield are sure ‘Iron’ Mike will pull off a win on November 15th. Who do you think will win?
