Taylor-Serrano 3 To Headline July 11th Card On Netflix In Madison Square Garden

Press Release: March 6, 2025 By Most Valuable Promotions and Netflix - Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) and Netflix today announced Taylor vs. Serrano 3, the highly anticipated trilogy bout between Ireland’s pound-for-pound great, undisputed super lightweight champion Katie Taylor (24-1, 6 KOs), and Brooklyn’s Puerto Rican boxing trailblazer, unified featherweight world champion Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KOs). This historic fight, an MVP event, will stream live globally, exclusively on Netflix at no additional cost to its 300+ million subscribers on Friday, July 11 from Madison Square Garden (MSG) in New York City. Taylor vs. Serrano 3 headlines the first-ever all women’s professional boxing card at the iconic venue, airing live on Netflix as the MVP continues its commitment to elevating women in the sport.

Taylor vs. Serrano 3 marks the third chapter in one of boxing’s fiercest rivalries, pitting the sport’s two biggest female stars against each other once more in a women’s super lightweight undisputed championship fight contested over 10, two-minute rounds. Their first clash in April 2022 made history as the first women’s fight to headline Madison Square Garden, earning global acclaim and winning Sports Illustrated’s Fight of the Year and The Ring’s Event of the Year for 2022. Taylor vs. Serrano was also nominated for Sports Business Journal’s Event of the Year, a testament to the global reach and power of the event. Their rematch at AT&T Stadium in November 2024, streamed on Netflix, shattered records with 74 million average viewers globally, becoming the most-watched women’s sporting event in U.S. history and was named the 2024 Women’s Fight of the Year by ESPN, Sports Illustrated, and Boxing Scene. Now, ESPN’s pound-for-pound #2 Taylor and #3 Serrano return to The Garden where their rivalry began, with all of Taylor’s undisputed super lightweight belts on the line again. This event, promoted by Most Valuable Promotions, underscores a groundbreaking commitment to women’s boxing during Women’s History Month, not only featuring the first-ever all-women’s card in MSG history but also setting a new financial standard for female fighters with Taylor and Serrano set to receive record-breaking purses, continuing to raise the benchmark as the highest-paid female fighters of all time. Pre-sale ticket signups are available now HERE, with the official on-sale date to be announced soon.

Irish sensation Katie Taylor (24-1, 6 KOs) looks to add another remarkable chapter to her incredible boxing career as she takes on Amanda Serrano for the third time in a historic trilogy. Taylor, a Matchroom fighter and Olympic gold medalist from Bray, Ireland, defeated Serrano at a sold-out Madison Square Garden in April 2022 in a stunning fight of the year contest that saw Taylor successfully defend her then-undisputed lightweight title. The fight cemented Taylor and Serrano as the two highest-paid women in combat sports history, each earning seven-figure purses. Taylor’s reign continued as the pair faced off again in their November 2024 rematch, where she edged Serrano in a close decision again setting viewership records. Taylor first won the undisputed lightweight title at Madison Square Garden against Belgian Delfine Persoon in 2019, then became a two-weight undisputed champion in November 2023, overcoming Chantelle Cameron in a rematch of their first closely fought battle in April 2023, with both fights taking place at a sold-out 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland. Taylor first got her hands on world honors in her seventh pro fight, claiming the vacant WBA Lightweight title in Cardiff against Anahi Sanchez in October 2017, and has been in 18 straight world title contests since that night. Her trilogy fight with Serrano now promises to elevate women’s boxing further, headlining an all-women’s card that reflects her long-standing mission to grow the sport.

“I want to thank everyone at Matchroom, MVP and Netflix for getting the trilogy over the line and I can't wait to headline at MSG again in July,” said Katie Taylor. “I’m 2 and 0 against Amanda but it's obviously a very special rivalry that delivers every time we step in the ring so I think it's only right that we have the trilogy. The atmosphere for the first fight there was amazing and I'm sure it won't be any different this time around. The numbers that got to see the last fight in November were incredible so hopefully those people will all want to tune in for the trilogy fight as well and we can deliver another great fight.”

Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KOs) is the first-ever Puerto Rican undisputed world champion and the most decorated fighter in women’s boxing history, recognized by the Guinness World Records for the most boxing world championships won by a female in different weight classes. Serrano is Most Valuable Promotions’ first signee, who recently signed the first ever lifetime combat sports contract with MVP and will become Chairwoman of MVP’s women's boxing initiatives to lead the company’s efforts in identifying, signing, developing and marketing the promotion’s growing roster of female athletes post her in-ring retirement. Serrano faced off against Katie Taylor for the first time at Madison Square Garden in 2022. Following the historic bout, Serrano defeated Sarah Mahfoud and Erika Cruz en-route to becoming the undisputed featherweight champion. She successfully defended her undisputed title in August 2023 against Heather Hardy before making history again, defeating Danila Ramos in October 2023 in the first-ever women’s unified world championship contested over 12 three-minute rounds — equal to a men’s championship fight. She threw a career-high 1,103 punches in the bout, solidifying her status as a trailblazer for gender equality in boxing. In recognition of her achievements inside and outside the ring, Serrano was named the Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA) Female Fighter of the Year for 2023, as well as Sports Illustrated’s and Boxing Scene’s 2023 Women’s Fighter of the Year. She continued her dominance in July 2024, scoring a second-round knockout victory over Stevie Morgan in a super lightweight bout.

Serrano went on to face Katie Taylor in the most anticipated women’s boxing rematch in modern history in the co-main event of MVP’s Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson card on Netflix in November 2024. The undisputed super lightweight title fight ended in a razor-thin decision victory for Taylor — sparking global debate and skyrocketing Serrano’s social following by over 1.2 million, making her the most-followed female boxer in the world. #Serrano also trended at #2 on X in the U.S., Brazil, Spain, and Canada post-fight, further cementing her status as a global icon. Serrano now brings her relentless power and unparalleled resume back to Madison Square Garden to command the world’s attention once again on Netflix, breaking barriers for women in combat sports and setting the stage for this historic trilogy atop an all-women’s mega-event.

“I promised my fans they would see this trilogy, and I’m incredibly grateful that we get to complete our journey where it all began — at Madison Square Garden, live on Netflix for the world to see,” said Amanda Serrano. “I’m disappointed that Katie Taylor did not keep her word and make the trilogy 12 three-minute rounds, equal to the men. This is a record-setting payday for both of us, and we owed it to the fans to honor the handshake deal we made. She didn’t. But make no mistake, every time we share the ring, it is war, and I know Friday, July 11, will be the greatest yet because I will finally get the official W I deserve. Headlining an all-female card at MSG, representing both New York and Puerto Rico, is something I never thought would be possible, and it wouldn’t be without Nakisa Bidarian, Jake Paul, and MVP’s commitment to elevating women’s boxing. I’m proud to stand alongside all the talented women on this card, and I hope our fight inspires young girls everywhere to keep believing in themselves and never stop chasing their dreams.”

“This is more than just a fight — it’s a celebration of the unmatched talent of women in boxing,” said Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian, co-founders of Most Valuable Promotions. “Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor have already shattered barriers and inspired millions, and this trilogy fight at the iconic Madison Square Garden will be another historic step forward for women’s sports. This all-women’s card is not only a testament to how far the sport has come but also the beginning of an even greater push from MVP to elevate the next generation of female fighters. Unlike other incumbents in boxing, we have, are, and will always champion women as equals to men, treating them with supreme respect and we will never compromise on those values. Thank you to Netflix and MSG. We’re honored to bring this groundbreaking event to life and remain steadfast in our mission to build and invest in lasting opportunities for women in boxing. This event is the definition of W.”

"Taylor-Serrano 2 was not just one of the most thrilling fights I've ever witnessed; it also made history as the most-watched professional women's sports event in the US," said Bela Bajaria, Netflix's Chief Content Officer. "At Netflix we're proud to continue to elevate the profile of women athletes and to bring another historic event to our global audience with MVP."

"Madison Square Garden has been home to the biggest boxing matches in history – including the ‘Fight of the Century,’ and the 2022 bout between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano,” said Joel Fisher, Executive Vice President, Marquee Events and Operations, MSG Entertainment. “We are proud to welcome these extraordinary athletes back to The World’s Most Famous Arena for another historic moment with our first-ever all-female professional boxing card.”

Netflix is the premier home for great sports entertainment. From fan-favorite hits like Formula 1: Drive to Survive, UNTOLD, Quarterback, Starting 5, America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, and Tour de France to inspiring stories such as Beckham, Simone Biles Rising and Court of Gold, Netflix delivers unmatched sports storytelling. Later this year Netflix is set to debut America’s Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys along with follow-docs covering SEC college football, MLB’s Boston Red Sox, and Rafael Nadal’s farewell tennis season. Netflix became the new home of WWE Raw in 2025, the global home of the NFL's two Christmas Day games in 2024 (through 2026), and secured the exclusive US rights to the FIFA Women’s World Cup for 2027 and 2031.

Most Valuable Promotions and Netflix redefined sports history in November 2024 with Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson and Taylor vs. Serrano 2, the first-ever live professional sports event on Netflix. That event shattered records, becoming the most-streamed sporting event ever with 108 million live viewers globally, while Taylor vs. Serrano 2 averaged 74 million viewers, 56 million peak concurrent views, and claimed the title of the most-watched women’s sporting event in US history with an average minute audience (AMA) of 47 million in the US. Now, MVP and Netflix bring boxing back to the Garden with Taylor vs. Serrano 3, headlining an all-women’s card that reinforces their commitment to elevating women in sports. Additional details, including the undercard, will be announced in the coming weeks.

Taylor vs. Serrano 3 is produced, marketed, and promoted by Most Valuable Promotions and distributed by Netflix. Fans can sign up for ticket updates HERE.

A Boxing Wishlist For 2025

Introduction:

It is that time of year once again. What has become a yearly tradition here at The Boxing Truth® ️ where this observer begins the new year by sharing his “Boxing Wishlist" with the dear readers who have followed my writings over the many years I have covered Boxing and by extension combat sports. By the title of this column for those who are unfamiliar with previous editions, this is a list of things that I would like to see happen in the sport of Boxing during the course of the new year. It also should be pointed out for those who may be reading the “Boxing Wishlist" put out by yours truly for the first time that this is not a standard list in the sense of a numbered list from 1-10 for example, but rather a condensed selection of topics that will be highlighted in Bold that I will try to discuss in both a detailed as well as a condensed form as possible within the context of a single column. While I always hope to add new topics that have not been featured before in previous years, unfortunately, circumstances do warrant some things to remain on the list, but will be obviously updated for present context as is necessary.

As has also become standard over the years as this list has evolved into a yearly tradition, this year's list is being compiled in the latter days of 2024 while yours truly is recuperating after what was a busy year for the sport and also a challenging one for me personally. For the purposes of this year's list, it is being composed before the World Heavyweight championship rematch between champion Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury, which was held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on December 21st. Delayed coverage of that encounter will be covered in a separate column that will be released on Tuesday, January 7th. Without any further ado, it is time to get into this year's “Boxing Wishlist." 

A " Boxing Wishlist For 2025”:

A Possible Consolidation Of Boxing’s Power Brokers (Promoters) Under One Broadcast Platform:

This is a subject that is both interesting and could be viewed as both good and bad for the sport depending on one’s perspective. One of the more consistent themes of this observer’s work over the last thirteen or so years has been the emergence of digital streaming networks and more specifically, how subscription-based streaming has the opportunity to bring Boxing into a new era that offers both better value and is more cost effective for consumers. A significant part of this particular theme since 2018 has been the inception of DAZN and ESPN+, two digital streaming networks dedicated exclusively to sports that quickly emerged as successors to previous broadcast powerhouses HBO and Showtime, two premium cable networks that have since both exited Boxing.

Although both networks have offered Boxing fans considerably more content than had previously been offered prior to the advent of streaming and have done so mostly under a subscription-based model, it has been DAZN that has grown significantly to house several promoters respective events all under their broadcast banner including Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing, Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, Universum Box Promotions, Dmitry Salita’s Salita Promotions, and most recently Frank Warren's Queensberry Promotions to name a few of what is becoming a deep and global roster of promotional entities ranging from the top of the sport to promoters on the regional level worldwide.

While it is a testament to the growth of DAZN not just in regard to their involvement in Boxing, but also their ongoing investment in securing additional sporting rights as well as continued expansion of their network around the world, the network is poised to continue building momentum in 2025 and may further add to it's Boxing roster, which could increase the likelihood of the network becoming as close to a one stop destination for all things Boxing that is frankly uncharted territory. 

While this could also be seen as bad for the sport in the sense that it might limit competition if most of Boxing's major promoters and even regional promoters around the world will be openly seeking one platform, for the respective other platforms that exist in the sport, which in regard to here in the United States consist of in addition to ESPN/ESPN+, ProBox TV, Triller TV, Prime Video, and Peacock, like DAZN and ESPN, all of the above are largely streaming-based networks, but it will be interesting to see if ESPN for example, who is preparing to revamp their streaming offering to include access to the ESPN linear cable networks, without requiring a Pay-TV provider to access those feeds through the ESPN app, will be looking to either increase their involvement in the sport or potentially at minimum scale back as the network’s agreement with Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum's Top Rank Boxing is due to conclude in the Summer of 2025, which has also fueled speculation that Arum could potentially be next to join DAZN’s roster.

Although as of this writing, the latter is speculation and yours truly does not like partaking in the practice of rumor gossip, if Arum is indeed preparing to switch platforms, it will be interesting to see what ESPN and the other networks involved in Boxing might do. Even though DAZN has built a roster of promoters and Boxing programming the sport has never seen before, there is always no shortage of promoters worldwide who will always be looking to make their footprint in the sport and it will be very interesting to see if ESPN and Arum do part ways if the network will look to a different promoter who is not currently signed to any of the aforementioned networks and give them a platform in which to try and make that footprint just as it allowed Arum to do initially beginning in 1980 when Arum’s Top Rank became the first major promoter to provide Boxing on a weekly basis on what was then a network in it's early stages in ESPN. There is also always the possibility given what has happened in the last decade with HBO and Showtime that ESPN, though sports centric, might opt to move in a different direction away from Boxing, which if that were to happen, would open a potential window of opportunity for the other networks that have been mentioned here outside of DAZN to potentially expand their involvement in the sport. How this will all play out obviously remains to be seen, but the question is how could this benefit consumers, which leads to the next and all too familiar item that remains a staple of this observer’s annual “Boxing Wishlist." 

The Need For Boxing To Finally Embrace Subscription-Based Models Over Pay-Per-View:

This one admittedly is the one item on the list year over year that has seen very little change, perhaps due to the stubbornness of those in the sport who are hell-bent on sticking with what has been an outdated and overpriced model for years, as well as yours truly’s refusal to stop speaking up on something I sincerely feel needs to change, not for the benefit of myself, but for the sport I have loved all my life and have covered for most of it.

The silver-lining to a significant amount of promoters all being under one broadcast platform in DAZN, which is a global network, however, just might give the network the opportunity to get back to it's original strategy upon its inception here in the United States in 2018, which in turn would ultimately benefit consumers. Top level Boxing cards under a reasonably priced subscription-based model without the need for subscribers to pay an additional pay-per-view fee to access the sport’s major events on DAZN’s platform.

Those who are knowledgeable on the subject know that DAZN, while remaining a subscription-based network, has deviated from their original promise and has offered Boxing cards including some “Influencer Boxing" events which have required an additional pay-per-view fee, which began in 2022 as a likely response to both coming out of the global COVID-19 epidemic in an attempt to recoup losses, which began for many in the television and streaming industries when the world was brought to a standstill in 2020, as well as a way to get fighters and promoters, who have insisted, despite the significant evidence of pay-per-view being in decline, to continue to use the model, to bring them to their platform.

Those who have followed my work going back to the mid-1990’s when I began my writing journey and entered the sport as a writer, but also spent several years covering the professional wrestling industry as well as periodically also covering Mixed Martial Arts (MMA)  in several online and print publications that predated The Boxing Truth®️, the outlet which I own and operate, know that I have frequently and unapologetically criticized the pay-per-view model, primarily over increasing costs as years have gone on as well as the frequency in which the model has been used in that a vast majority of pay-per-view events were put on pay-per-view as a requirement in contractual agreements and/or demands of promoters and even some fighters, more so than it being a significant event, deemed special that would draw a significant audience. Although I can be significantly more thorough, I will give a brief background into what ultimately convinced me that pay-per-view created more problems for Boxing than it solved. I came into this world in the 1980’s. Back then, pay-per-view as well as the cable/satellite industry as a whole were in its initial growing stages. In the context of Boxing and for a period of time Professional Wrestling, saw their major events shown on closed-circuit television in arenas, and theaters throughout much of the United States, but also on cable/satellite pay-per-view where it was available at that time. 

While there was also a difference back then in how those events were presented in that it was presented as a special event and featured a look and feel of something one would not see on standard television broadcasts of either medium at that time, the prices also were limited to between $15-$30 depending on the market you were in and those events were occasional, which made it feel more special, though pro wrestling was the first to eventually expand on the occasional special event to something that would evolve to one event per fiscal quarter by the time the 1980’s came to an end.

With the brief trip down memory lane now also concluded, I should not have to tell those who are knowledgeable that pay-per-view is no longer the budget friendly model that it once was and in regard to Boxing the feel of the true “Special Event" is at best a rarity. Despite this fact and the continued decline of the model with very rare exceptions, promoters still continue to use pay-per-view, even as evidence of the success of reasonably priced subscription-based models exist and could help the sport significantly in the long-term.

One need look no further than the recent event featuring social media influencer, turned aspiring boxer Jake Paul and 58 year old former two-time Heavyweight world champion and Hall of Famer Mike Tyson in November of last year. A controversial event for a few reasons, but one that, despite Mike Tyson's status as once the biggest draw in the sport in the 1980’s and more specifically throughout much of the 1990’s where the latter period saw most of his fights carried on pay-per-view, the Tyson-Paul event was not a pay-per-view attraction, but was instead offered on digital subscription entertainment network Netflix.

While the event was not without its share of controversy both for what occurred inside the ring, but more specifically relating to issues with the live broadcast stream of the event, which was significant, the event, which was also archived for on-demand viewing without any of the issues that plagued the live broadcast, drew an audience of 108 million subscribers globally for the network that has recently ventured into live sports including carrying two NFL football games on Christmas Day, which thankfully did not have any issues with the live broadcasts and also drew massive numbers around the world, but also signing a deal with WWE to broadcast its flagship Monday Night Raw weekly series in the United States as of this week (January 6, 2025), as well as becoming the global distributor of WWE Network internationally including all of the company's weekly programming, library of past events, as well as live premium live events, (Previously known as pay-per-view) which will likely include the United States market when the U.S. rights become available in 2026.

Although the agreements with both WWE and the NFL are clearly part of a much broader strategy by Netflix as it ventures into live sports and sports on-demand programming in expanding its content to grow it's subscriber base even further, the success of both the Tyson-Paul event as well as the NFL’s Christmas Day games which drew 65 million viewers in the United States alone, should serve as a wake up call to those Boxing hold outs as I call them that the time to move away from pay-per-view has come. Though we do not know as of this writing as to what plans might be in the works as for as Boxing is concerned for Netflix, these kinds of numbers could only be dreamed of via pay-per-view distribution even when the model was considered a bargain and budget-friendly for consumers. 

If one is looking for more evidence, longtime pay-per-view distributor InDemand, previously known as Viewer's Choice here in the United States when it launched in 1985, the leading pay-per-view distributor across cable and satellite television here in the United States as well as Canada announced last year that it will be ceasing operations by the end of 2025 ending forty years of service and for a lot of us who grew up with what was then Viewer's Choice as a pay-per-view provider, a lot of good memories of those “Special Events" as well as an alternative to movie theaters to view the blockbuster films of the day. While the distributor has said that it's streaming platform PPV.com will continue operating after the company closes, it should serve as yet another in a growing list of examples as to not only the lack of viability of the pay-per-view model in now 2025 at the time of this column's release, but of the decline of the cable/satellite industry as a whole. 

Although the possibility exists that a new distributor could emerge as cable and satellite providers look to survive in both their traditional forms as well as attempting to transition into offering live TV streaming packages and services rather than traditional cable or satellite service, the odds of both the pay-per-view model as well as cable and satellite models reverting back to an era of both being consumer friendly and consumer-embraced where both models are profitable for providers, distributors, as well as networks and promoters seems unlikely with subscription-based models easily accessible and consumer friendly on the market, which tends to offer considerably more content as well for the price.

Given all of this, it would seem logical that Boxing promoters and networks, rather than waiting for the inevitable collapse of what remains of cable, satellite, and pay-per-view, get out ahead of things and finally embrace subscription-based streaming as the future. In terms of the endless pursuit of seeking additional sources of revenue, which are always hoped-for, but rarely achieved by pay-per-view, the obvious route would be to both attempt lucrative broadcast agreements with streaming networks that would offer these (Pay-Per-View Quality) bouts to their subscribers as part of their subscription, something both DAZN and ESPN have done well when neither has deviated towards pay-per-view, but to also seek sponsorship deals and endorsements, which could effectively replace the pay-per-view model without forcing consumers all promoters attempt to draw to their events to incur additional costs. The bottom line is with much of the Boxing promotional landscape now either under one broadcast banner, or soon to be joining that banner, the argument of using pay-per-view as a way to draw fighters and promoters who insist on the model to the negotiating table, no longer holds water, nor does the excuse some promoters when confronted on the subject of “Market Changes" or blaming expensive prices, which often begin at a $70 price point as something that is the way things are done in the United States. There needs to be accountability of promoters and networks when decisions that ultimately do not benefit consumers are made. With the pay-per-view model suffering yet another blow with InDemands impending closure, one can only hope that common sense on the need to move away from an outdated model will finally come into the equation. On the subject of the implementation of “Common Sense" it coincidentally leads to the final item on this year's list that is also making a return.

To See Women's Boxing Moved To Three Minute Rounds And World Championship Fights Expanded To 12 Rounds:

Perhaps one subject besides the need for Boxing to move away from pay-per-view in order to make the sport more accessible to all as well as the need to seek new revenue streams as an effective strategy to effectively replace the model, which I am also proud to be associated with is my long-standing advocacy for Women's Boxing. To be more specific, wanting to see progress made for female fighters in the sport that would put women on similar footing to their male counterparts. In taking it a step further, two critical aspects, to see women's bouts moved from two minute rounds to three minutes, the same length as Men's bouts and to see world championship bouts in Women's Boxing go from a ten round distance to a twelve round distance, the same distance as men's world championship bouts.

Much like my stance on the pay-per-view model needing to be either significantly revamped, or outright done away with, this is something I will gladly continue banging the drum on until change occurs. With regard to pay-per-view, it's looking to and wanting to see the sport grow and be made accessible to more eyes regardless of economic level, my desire here for Women's Boxing can be summed up in a word “Equality." 

When Women's Boxing began to be featured on television in the mid-1990’s also coincidentally when I began my writing journey, to be frank, it was treated as an attraction more than it was regarded as the sport it was and still is. One of the main differences between women's bouts and men's bouts were that unlike men's fights,; where rounds were three minutes in duration, women were limited to two minute rounds.

Although the purpose in theory was first out of safety concerns and offered a selling point of “More Excitement" due to the quicker pace , women's combat sports has evolved and when one considers that in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) women's bouts are contested under either three five minute rounds for non-title fights or five, five minute rounds for world championship bouts, the same standards as what men's MMA bouts are contested under, the idea that women boxers should be limited to two minute rounds has less and less credibility.

To expand on this aspect, in the last two Olympic Boxing tournaments, women's bouts were held with three, three minute rounds and there were no instances of serious injury that could have been attributed to the length of time of a round. Furthermore, the additional minute not only allowed fighters time to pace themselves, but also it seemed to solve the the conundrum that often occurs in bouts held with two minute rounds that often result in close fights being scored draws by allowing the same round length as men's bouts, which allowed for more conclusive scoring.

On the professional side of the sport, some may remember the Women's world championship bout between Amanda Serrano and Danila Ramos, where Serrano put her unified World Featherweight championship on the line, which took place in October 2023 in Orlando, FL was contested with three minute rounds and also saw the bout extended to a twelve round distance, the same as men's world championship fights. There were no issues and Serrano was able to retain her championship with a convincing twelve round unanimous decision.

Despite Serrano wanting to continue competing under what is the standard format for men's bouts, three minute rounds and a twelve round distance for world title fights, unfortunately, there has not been a bout held in Women's Boxing since under the format. Frankly, I would like to know why? 

One of the benefits of Netflix' entry into Boxing with the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul event was the co-main event featured the highly anticipated rematch between Serrano and two-division world champion Katie Taylor. A delayed second encounter between two groundbreakers of the sport who made history in April 2023 when they met in Madison Square Garden for Taylor's Undisputed Lightweight championship of the world at that time. What was a great fight that brought tears to my eyes having long advocated for Women's Boxing, was the first Women's bout to main event a Boxing card in the main arena in Madison Square Garden and drew a sell out of over 20,000 people. As one who faced much criticism over the years and questions of why I covered women's bouts, it was a moment of validation not only for the two fighters, not only for the sport of Women's Boxing, but also for yours truly in a small way having long known what female fighters were capable of and holding firm in my stance that Women's Boxing needs to be under the same format as men's bouts. I will also concede that I had a similar emotional reaction during Serrano's fight with Ramos as the crowd in attendance at that fight gave the fighters one long steady standing ovation for the last several rounds of that fight, very similar to that which took place in Madison Square Garden when Taylor and Serrano met for the first time.

When I was informed that the Taylor-Serrano rematch would be taking place as the co-main event of the Tyson-Paul card, I immediately told anyone who asked me about the event or Tyson-Paul that irregardless of what happened in that fight, the Taylor-Serrano rematch would be worth the time to watch and would steal the show at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX. Though it did not take long for me to be proven right yet again as the two fighters met again, this time for Taylor's Undisputed Jr. Welterweight world championship, I found myself a bit disappointed because like their first fight in Madison Square Garden, I feel an opportunity was missed here by not allowing the fight to be held with three minute rounds and with a twelve round distance.

Much like their first fight, a grueling and bloody back and forth battle occurred between Taylor and Serrano for ten hard rounds with Taylor once again emerging victorious by the slimmest of margins to retain her undisputed crown. Irregardless of the outcomes of those two fights, which had my votes for Fight of the year in 2023 and 2024, not just in Women's Boxing, but in the entire sport including men's bouts, I feel that style wise Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano could fight ten to twenty times and it would be closely fought from start to finish every single time. One should wonder, however, if the rivalry between these two trailblazers and future Hall of Famers would be even at one fight a piece or potentially even reversed with Serrano having two wins instead of Taylor if the two fighters had the benefit of three minute rounds and an extra two rounds that men who compete in world title fights are afforded. While the fights may have still ended up narrowly decided regardless of duration of round length or distance, simply based on the styles of the two fighters, they deserved three minute rounds and two extra rounds to try to determine a more conclusive outcome. 

My hope for 2025 for Women's Boxing is that those who have stood in the way of progress whether they be sanctioning organizations and/or state and international athletic regulatory boards finally realize that with more women's bouts being held around the world than ever before, with more and more women's fights being positioned as main events on cards also featuring men's bouts, there is no longer a reason to deny female fighters the opportunity to fight under a three minute round or to compete in a twelve round fight in a world championship fight. The time for further steps for equality has come and if top female fighters in the sport are not going to yet be given similar pay as their male counterparts, which they also deserve and is overdue, the least the powers that be in the sport can do is take one step forward by allowing women to compete under the same format as men even if the issue of similar purses for female fighters is a bridge yet to be crossed, but one that much like three minute rounds and the same distance as men's bouts needs to be crossed sooner than later. Female fighters do take the same risks as male fighters take by getting in the ring after all.

Conclusion:

As always by definition the items on this list for now remain “Wishes", but are not ones with the benefit of this observer in mind, but of the sport of Boxing as a whole, the fighters who compete in it and put their lives on the line, and the fans who support it in good times and bad year after year. While some items have remained on the list year after year as circumstances dictate, there are several other things that have been discussed over the years in previous editions of the “Boxing Wishlist" that are as relevant today as they were when they were featured and well likely be featured again in the days, weeks, months, and indeed years when appropriate. With frankly too many of those items to list in the context of one column, it is my hope that this condensed list will not only see progress made as 2025 moves along, but also that the powers that be in the sport take a look and realize that my goal is and has always been from the moment I began my writing journey 30 years ago to benefit Boxing, to advocate for the sport, the fighters, and the fans that support the sport. It is something that has not and will not change. 

With all the above now said and done, it is now time to see what 2025 has in store for the sport of Boxing.

Paul-Tyson: A Reality Check?

The event between social media influencer turned aspiring boxer Jake Paul and International Boxing Hall of Famer and two-time World Heavyweight champion Mike Tyson was one that stirred much opinion, criticism, and worry for Tyson’s health given that he would be getting back into the ring at fifty-eight years of age, more than twenty years removed from his last competitive fight in 2005 and four years removed from a charity exhibition, which had been the only time he had entered a Boxing ring since retirement. It was also a circumstance that as most events featuring those labeled as “Influencers” going against an athlete or a celebrity in a Boxing ring drew significant interest, particularly among those who are casual sports observers. For better or worse, that was the target demographic of the promotion and not those for whom Boxing is a regular passion.

Part of the draw was of course the appeal of Mike Tyson, a fighter whom in his prime was the primary drawing card of his time in the sport where no matter who he fought, drew significant interest. The interest, which was rooted in the fact that he would often destroy his opponents with a mix of hand speed and punching power that had not been seen before. It was and is this appeal where even many years removed from that athletic prime, there are those who still have the images implanted in their minds of the great fighter Tyson was as well as what he meant to the sport. Perhaps this is the reason why so many people were willing to overlook the logical aspects of what was going to take place when Tyson climbed back into the ring against Paul. Logical aspects such as advanced age and the things that naturally occur in all of us as we get older. In the context of combat sports athletes, this means eroded skills and slowed reflexes as well as more often than not, not being able to have as much flexibility or reaction time as they had in their younger days.

In Tyson’s case, his appeal was and will likely remain strong simply because of what he meant to the sport and the fact that thanks to the advent of streaming, access to his fights where he was in his prime and scoring devastating knockouts is more accessible than ever, which makes it easier for those who were not around during that time to see what he was all about. As one who grew up recording fights and still watches as much Boxing from decades prior to when I came along, and as someone who was around during Tyson’s prime and one who got to cover him from the mid-1990s when I began my career covering combat sports, through his retirement, I concede that technology has certainly evolved and access to fight films both from many years gone by as well as current bouts, has come a long way since the days when I recorded all I could on VHS tapes. Having said that, what access to those classic bouts can do for those who are casual fans is at times provide a false sense of belief that what they might be watching, which can be decades old, would be similar to what they would see if a fighter from that time got back into the ring in the present day, neglecting the passage of time and what happens to someone as they age.

Fighters too often fall into this belief as there is always the mentality among fighters that even years after retirement, they always have one more fight in them. While there will always be debates among Boxing lifers such as this observer as to what might have happened if a great fighter from one era faced a fighter from a more recent time where both were in their prime form, the belief that fighters tend to have about always having one more in them regardless of those logical factors is something that worries yours truly.

In this case, there was evidence that had me voicing concern as many others had for Tyson’s health. As some will recall in previewing this event, I brought up a similar circumstance that occurred three years ago when former Tyson opponent and fellow Hall of Famer Evander Holyfield got back into the ring at the same age Tyson did against Paul fifty-eight, to compete in a bout against former MMA world champion Vitor Belfort. Out of respect for the reader and the fact that discussing what occurred that night in September 2021 still stirs feelings of disgust for what was allowed to go occur that evening and keeping in mind that I already discussed it prior to this event, I will surmise it by saying though Holyfield visually looked to be in immaculate condition for someone approaching sixty years old prior to getting into the ring, the effects of age as well as the punishment he had suffered throughout his long career were impossible to ignore as Holyfield could not maintain his balance or protect himself in what ended up being one of the many black eyes in the Boxing history.

In the lead-up to this fight, frankly, I had feelings similar to those I had in the days before Holyfield-Belfort. A sincere concern and worry for Tyson’s well-being given his age, despite the visual evidence that he looked to be in great condition for a former fighter at an advanced age. Unlike the circumstances with Holyfield, however, I did not get any information prior to this event that suggested to me that Tyson would be compromised as Holyfield was. Nevertheless, as one who has seen an endless number of fighters getting back into the ring at advanced ages with that belief of having at least one more fight in them, often leading to scenes that are difficult to watch, my concern remained. It is, however, important to keep in mind that Tyson was getting into a ring with someone, who was thirty-one years younger, but one who does not have the level of experience of a seasoned boxer, having built his career on facing MMA fighters, with little to no Boxing experience, a former NBA basketball player, fellow influencers, and having a 2-1, with 2 Knockouts record against those with strictly Boxing backgrounds. Based on this, there was at least some question as to what might happen if Tyson were able to land punches effectively, despite the age difference and facing someone who is a good athlete though limited in terms of Boxing experience.

Although the encounter, which took place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX on November 15th had slight modifications in the rules including two minute rounds and the use of sixteen ounce gloves and not the standard ten ounce gloves, which are used in standard Heavyweight fights, which seemed to at least on the surface benefit Tyson, it did not take long for reality to set in. Tyson appeared to show some flashes of what he once was early, applying pressure on Paul and landing a few hooks to the head. The obvious effects of advanced age appeared almost simultaneously as Tyson quickly found it difficult to use his legs to execute his lateral movement and had some trouble using his head movement to evade Paul’s longer reach and get on the inside where he could do damage. Paul was also able to clip Tyson with a few good punches throughout the scheduled eight round bout that seemed to stagger his legs. 

As the bout progressed, Tyson showed less and less movement, less and less ability to land punches, and the only question I had in my mind was whether he would be allowed to finish the contest. Although Jake Paul has been the subject of much criticism including from this observer for seemingly thinking that one can build a legitimate Boxing career and get into position to fight for world championships by facing the types of opposition he has, none of which has come against a serious contender in any division, he did show some class and humility in this encounter by clearly not pressing the issue where he likely would have stopped Tyson and allowing the legend to go the distance in what was an uneventful contest, which though classified as an official fight, which Paul won by margins of eight rounds to zero on one scorecard and seven rounds to one on the other two, should have been designated as an exhibition.

Despite the criticisms of many, including yours truly of Paul for the aforementioned reasons, there is no disputing he has established himself as one of the sport’s rising promoters and he has done good for the sport in giving a platform for young fighters through his Most Valuable Promotions promotional company as well as being a strong advocate for Women’s Boxing, which I do respect. It was his promotional savvy that likely inspired digital streaming subscription entertainment network Netflix to get involved in the sport as the Tyson-Paul event was the first Boxing event ever to be shown by the network. While that also led to significant issues throughout the live broadcast due to the network having issues with their servers, which caused significant outages and buffering issues throughout the world for many trying to access the event, the accomplishment of bringing Boxing to such a massive platform is something that cannot be denied even though it should prepare the network for future live programming in wanting to ensure that their subscribers have as seamless an experience streaming live content as possible. Although by all accounts the event also succeeded in terms of a live gate attraction in reportedly drawing 70,000 spectators to AT&T Stadium, something that also deserves credit where it is due, the question that needs to be asked coming out of this event is should Paul-Tyson be a reality check?

A reality check in the sense that even though it clearly drew a lot of interest, it was still a scenario where an aspiring boxer shared the ring with someone who was many years removed from active competition and one who probably should not have been in the ring at fifty-eight years old. Though such events for better or worse do draw interest, for one who insists he wants to be taken seriously as a professional boxer, who says he wants to be a world champion as Paul does, taking part in events like this does not help his argument. As far as the interest this particular event drew, while nothing can be taken away from it in terms of a successful promotion, the reality is, events like this will only succeed so far as it becomes more and more clear that it is not a competitive situation and while the aim of such events is strictly to draw the interest of the casual observer, such interest will only last so long where it will succeed and if Paul as well as others who have come into Boxing from outside realms, who all want to be taken seriously, do not start facing serious boxers, who are working towards fighting for a world championship, the “Curiosity” factor, which seems to be the aim to draw casual observers, will not be there. 

For now, this observer will congratulate Paul on another successful promotion. More importantly, yours truly is thankful that Mike Tyson did not get seriously hurt and that those of us who cover the sport are not talking about a tragedy or near tragedy occurring as was the case with Holyfield-Belfort. However, I believe that state athletic commissions need to implement common sense where such bouts are not green-lit and allowed to go on. Not only due to the significant age differences, but more importantly due to the obvious dangers that exist as well as what was, and will likely continue to be a significant difference in competition. At some point, those who regulate and sanction the sport need to step up to ensure the integrity of the sport is a priority.

Paul-Tyson: Good Or Bad For Boxing?

For a significant portion of 2024, the Boxing world has been buzzing over the announced bout between social media influencer, turned professional boxer Jake Paul and International Boxing Hall of Famer and former two-time World Heavyweight champion Mike Tyson. An encounter that just mentions of it has stirred a range of opinions and criticism. The primary reason for the criticism is obvious.

Tyson, who has not fought professionally in over twenty years will be stepping back into the ring at age fifty-eight to face the twenty-seven year old Paul. While it needs to be pointed out for the purposes of factual accuracy that Tyson did participate in a charity exhibition in November 2020 at age fifty-four with fellow Hall of Famer Roy Jones, who was fifty-one during the global COVID-19 epidemic. While some may view an exhibition as something that might have helped Tyson work off theoretical “Ring Rust," there is a significant difference between an endeavor, which is designed to be an exhibition in a charitable effort between two participants of similar age and fight designed to be an official competition where the age difference will be thirty-one years, where one of the combatants has not officially competed in over twenty years. To add further context to the criticism, when Tyson retired in 2005 after retiring on his stool in his fight against Kevin McBride, there were many who felt Tyson was what is often referred to as a “Shot Fighter." Another and perhaps more polite way to put it, his best days were behind him. 

The encounter between Paul and Tyson, originally scheduled for July 20th at AT&T Stadium was postponed when Tyson became ill with what was said to be an inflamed ulcer on a flight from Miami, FL to Los Angeles, CA, which forced him to pull out of the bout and thus cast doubt as to whether it would happen. As most know, Paul, chose to keep the July 20th date, but found himself competing in Tampa, FL in scoring a dominant sixth round knockout of Mike Perry, a fighter known for his time competing in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and in Boxing matches fought under Bareknuckle rules and formats.

Paul, who has a professional record of 10-1, with 7 Knockouts, has faced his share of criticism as well for having fought against either fellow social media influencers, fighters who come from an MMA background with little or no Boxing experience, one former NBA player, and two traditional professional boxers, yet has said that he wants to be taken seriously as a boxer and stating his desire to be a world champion. Although the debate of whether someone can actually work themselves into position to fight for a world championship, fighting almost exclusively against non-boxers is still ongoing, what is not in dispute is Paul has dedicated himself to the sport and in the process has become a significant presence in Boxing as a promoter. If one factors the knockout of Mike Perry, who did compete in one traditional Boxing bout several years prior to facing Paul, into the equation, Paul does have a record of 2-1, with 2 Knockouts against opponents with Boxing backgrounds. Nevertheless, the question of whether one can work their way into world title contention with a limited resume such as Paul’s as well as now facing a long-retired legend of the sport is one that many are likely asking. 

Despite several voicing concerns for Tyson's health, the bout between Paul and Tyson will take place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX. The event will also signal the entry into the sport of Netflix, long considered to be the pioneer of digital subscription-based streaming networks. It is also something that will be available as part of a Netflix subscription.

Frankly, this observer is hesitant to use the term “Fight" when discussing this encounter. Not out of any hostility towards either Paul or Tyson, but because not only do I not know what we will see, but I share some of the same concerns many have expressed for Tyson's health. It may be tempting for some to say such concern is a way to hype and be negative, but my concern comes from a place as someone who has covered many older fighters who probably should not have been allowed to get in a ring at advanced ages between their forties and fifties. In this case, I am one who grew up watching Mike Tyson compete and who covered him from 1995 until his last fight in 2005. I also took the time to cover the exhibition between Tyson and Jones in 2020 as I supported the effort to support the first responders of the horrible epidemic we all lived through. An effort that Tyson himself described as a humanitarian effort.

This is also a similar scenario to another fight I covered, which unfortunately turned into a black eye for Boxing, which I will be honest with the reader has stirred similar feelings for yours truly. I am referring to the September 2021 debacle that saw Hall of Famer and former Tyson opponent Evander Holyfield at fifty-eight years old, return to the ring to face former MMA world champion Vitor Belfort in Hollywood, FL. A situation where the event was moved from its original location in California to Florida due to the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) refusing to license Holyfield citing not only his age, but also the punishment he had sustained throughout his career as contributing reasons.

Despite still looking to be in immaculate shape at fifty-eight years old, it was clear that Holyfield was compromised as he couldn't not keep his balance and was unable to effectively defend himself, being knocked down by Belfort and rescued by Referee Sam Burgos who quickly stopped the sad scene in the first round. The encounter, which was pushed as an official professional fight, was changed to an exhibition by the Florida State Athletic Commission (FSAC) in response to the backlash that followed, which was justified, as was the CSAC’s refusal to license Holyfield. The similarities between that debacle and potentially this event may not end there. 

Much like Holyfield, Tyson looks to be in great shape for a retired fighter at an advanced age, but photographs and videos shared across social media often do not tell the full story. Tyson is now the same age as Holyfield was in 2021, but a difference that may not be in Tyson’s favor is twenty years between official fights compared to ten years for Holyfield, who last competed in 2011. Furthermore, Vitor Belfort was forty-four years old when he got in the ring with the then fifty-eight year old Holyfield. A fourteen year age difference and not the thirty-one year difference between Tyson and Paul.

Although it is important to keep in mind that one aging fighter's condition may not exactly be the same as another from the same era, these facts do not necessarily paint a good picture. What could work in Tyson’s favor, however, is Paul though a good athlete is limited in overall Boxing experience and has fought all his fights as a Cruiserweight and not a Heavyweight where this encounter will take place. 

There are two things that could come with that. One, Paul has never fought as a Heavyweight and if Tyson can land a punch solidly on the much younger man, it will be interesting to see how Paul takes a punch from a natural Heavyweight. Two, while it is unrealistic to expect anything resembling Tyson in his prime in the 1980’s and 1990’s, a fighter who often won fights before they even began through intimidating his opponents as one of Boxing’s feared “Knockout Artists," who also had significant hand speed to go with it, the last attribute a fighter has is punching power and if it turns out that Tyson neurologically has his reflexes and is not in a similar circumstance as Holyfield was, if he still has some of that punching power, it could be interesting. On the other hand, Paul's primary weapon throughout his career to this point has been a right hand that has proven to have knockout power in it, Tyson's punch resistance at this age will be a focal point to focus on here if Paul can land his right hand.

Regardless of whether or not this event turns out to be a start of a long-term investment in Boxing for Netflix, this observer still has the concerns he had in 2021 and the nerves probably won't subside until I see that everyone comes out of this with their health intact. As someone who over the last three decades has covered his share of fights that should not have been allowed to take place and unfortunately more deaths related to fights inside the ring, as someone who is a Boxing lifer and truly cares about the sport and wants to see it succeed in all areas, I hope the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, who will be overseeing this bout are paying attention and it won't be up to the referee in the ring to do the right thing because the commission overseeing things would not and Boxing will not be forced to suffer another black eye and debacle. Will Paul-Tyson be good or bad for Boxing? I wish I could give the reader an answer.

Paul-Perry Thoughts

The Cruiserweight fight between social media influencer turned aspiring boxer Jake Paul and MMA star and Bareknuckle boxer Mike Perry on July 20th at Amalie Arena in Tampa, FL was one born out of unforeseen circumstances. For several months after all, the talk of many both in and out of Boxing for good and bad has been Paul’s signed bout with long-retired International Boxing Hall of Famer and former two-time World Heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, which was to have taken place on July 20th in Arlington, TX. When the fifty-eight year old suffered a medical emergency recently forcing a postponement of that bout to November 15th, Paul opted to maintain the original date, and thus, this bout with Perry as well as a change in location took place on a little more than four weeks notice.

Despite the limited time both men had to prepare and promote this bout, more than 15,000 spectators filed into Amalie Arena to see it. Regardless of what one might think of Jake Paul and his credibility as a legitimate boxer as he has had no shortage of critics, including this observer, it is a testament to his ability as a promoter to draw such a crowd on limited notice, even though there were reports of issues with regard to filling the arena and availability of tickets were still available as of the weigh-in on July 19th.

Having said that, if one were being honest, there were not much in the way of expectations for this fight, despite the risk Paul was taking by keeping his originally scheduled date, with the bout with Tyson, at least on paper, still in the pipeline. The reason why there were not many expectations going into this fight was because this was another instance where Paul was facing a fighter primarily known for his participation in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and one with limited Boxing experience. A wrinkle to that, however, was Perry, while having only one fight under his belt fought under traditional Boxing rules, has spent the last several years establishing himself fighting in Bareknuckle Boxing, where he is unbeaten.

In previewing this bout, although I noted Perry’s toughness and ability to take a punch in fights fought under the Bareknuckle Boxing format, he was susceptible to being hit with the right hand, which coincidentally is Paul’s primary weapon. It did not take long for this to become evident as Paul quickly found a home for his right hand and dropped Perry early in the first round with an overhand right. While Perry’s mettle would be something that would be one of the stories of this fight as he would take significant punishment throughout, his inability to move his head as well as keep his hands up to defend against what Paul threw at him, made this fight a mismatch. There were occasions throughout the fight where Perry would connect with a solid punch on Paul, but the pattern of the fight remained the same, Paul landing the cleaner, harder shots on a fighter with significant defensive liabilities. Two additional knockdowns would be scored by Paul in rounds two and six, both as a result of right hands, with the final knockdown resulting in the fight being stopped as Perry got up on very wobbly legs and was deemed unable to continue by Referee Christopher Young.

If one were to ask this observer for his opinion, I would offer one slight criticism. A criticism not of Paul, but of Referee Christopher Young, a recent inductee in the 2024 class of the Florida Boxing Hall of Fame, who is one of the best referees in the state of Florida, where yours truly also resides. Despite Young’s reputation as one of the best referees Florida has to offer, I felt the fight probably should have been stopped around the fourth round. Although no one can take anything away from the grit and determination Mike Perry showed in this fight, when it becomes evident that one fighter is at a competitive disadvantage and is taking the type of beating that could have long-term repercussions, the fight should be stopped. While the decision on when to stop a fight is not an exact science and should be treated on a case by case basis, and giving credit where it is due in that Young did stop the fight in the sixth round when Perry got up and could not keep his legs under him, I simply feel that in this case, with the contest having been clearly one-sided long before the sixth round, Young gave Perry too much of the benefit of doubt in allowing the fight to go on a bit longer than it should have.

If one were also to be honest, they would say that this fight did not prove much as far as Paul’s claim of wanting to be a world champion. This was a scenario where to his credit, he was able to showcase evolving skills as well as patience, but the criticisms of Paul remain, simply because he is not fighting against boxers exclusively and is not taking the necessary steps by facing fighters that will not only continue to help in his development as a fighter, but more specifically, boxers that will allow him to work his way into position to become a contender to potentially challenge for a world championship. To take it a step further, if the signed encounter with Mike Tyson does indeed happen in November, yes, it will be an event that will draw attention particularly amongst the casual sports fan, which is one reason why Netflix was likely interested in such an event and subsequently secured exclusive rights to the event. In all truth and honesty, however, getting in the ring against a fifty-eight year old, long-retired boxer will not prove much, even if that boxer is named Mike Tyson. 

While Paul does deserve credit where it is due for not only the commitment he has shown to the sport, his continued development, and his prowess  as a promoter, at some point, he and his team will have to come to the realization that even though he entered the sport in an unconventional way as being a social media influencer, the standards of the sport have to be respected, and that means if one is truly serious about wanting to be taken seriously as a boxer and wants to compete for a world championship, they need to follow a similar path as virtually all boxers who work their way up and that means fighting boxers exclusively, regardless of whether they have name recognition or not and fighting against boxers that will allow said fighter to work their way into contention to be able to get into that position. Crossover events like the Paul-Tyson encounter or the numerous fighters Paul has fought that come either from the influencer world or from the sport of MMA do indeed draw attention, there is no denying that, but it does not prove much as far as one’s hope of being taken seriously as a fighter, who wants to become a world champion.

Paul-Perry Preview

July 20, 2024 was to be a day in the world of Boxing marked by an event that is a curiosity more so than a legitimate fight in the eyes of many. The day that social media influencer turned aspiring Cruiserweight boxer Jake Paul was to enter the ring at AT&T Stadium in Dallas,TX to square off against long-retired two-time World Heavyweight champion Mike Tyson in an event that would also signal a new entry of broadcast platform into the sport of Boxing in the form of Netflix. As most know, Tyson recently suffered a medical emergency on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles, which resulted in the event being postponed until Friday, November 15th.

With the fifty-eight year old Hall of Famer Tyson sidelined, Paul has opted to keep the original July 20 date as he will face UFC veteran and current Bareknuckle boxer Mike Perry at Amalie Arena in Tampa, FL in a Cruiserweight bout that can be seen on DAZN Pay-Per-View. There are a few interesting things to keep in mind going into this fight. One the risk for Paul in moving forward with the date even though the fight with Tyson, criticized or not, has been rescheduled for November. After all,  there is always the possibility of potential injury that could be sustained, including, but not limited to cuts that could derail things with Tyson even further.  Secondly, there is a perception that Paul, who insists he is serious about being a boxer and wanting to be taken seriously as a boxer, with the goal of fighting for world championships, facing another fighter who is primarily known for his background in the sport of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA).

The wrinkle here is Mike Perry does have professional Boxing experience, but primarily as a Bareknuckle boxer. How that will translate as he will be fighting under the traditional professional Boxing format for only the second time, remains to be seen. What Perry does bring into this fight is he has shown in his Bareknuckle bouts that he is durable and can take a punch. Where there might be a liability for him is he has shown to be susceptible to being hit with right hands in those fights. 

Although fights fought under Bareknuckle rules do not have the emphasis on the element of defense as compared to its traditional counterpart, what makes this noteworthy is Paul's primary weapon that he has shown throughout his career has been a right hand that he has been able to score six knockouts in his nine career victories. Meanwhile, Perry's lone bout fought under traditional Boxing rules was a four round decision loss to a fighter named Kenneth McNeil in March 2015 in the 168lb. Super-Middleweight. As a Bareknuckle boxer, however, Perry is unbeaten with a record of 6-0, with 3 Knockouts and will come into this fight off of a first round knockout over fellow UFC veteran Thiago Alvez in a fight fought in the Bareknucke Fighting Championship promotion (BKFC) in April of this year.

For his part, Paul is also coming off of a first round knockout win in March over a fighter named Ryan Bourland. While Bourland, a veteran of nineteen professional fights prior to facing Paul, was seen as a step in the right direction for Paul in the sense that unlike the vast majority of Paul's previous opposition, he was a professional boxer with more experience than him, he offered no resistance and Paul was able to get a stoppage late in the first round.

Whether or not this fight with Mike Perry turns out to be something more serious than a “Stay Busy" fight for Paul before taking part in an event being sold as a fight that has been heavily criticized due to the age of Mike Tyson, remains to be seen. While there is some risk involved here and it is understandable that Paul like most fighters in his position would want to stay active when an originally scheduled opponent had to withdraw, it is also understandable how criticism of Paul will likely continue, despite his wanting to be taken seriously as a boxer, regardless of what happens in this fight or in November, if the event with Tyson does take place.

“And That's The Boxing Truth." 

Paul vs. Perry takes place on Saturday, July 20th at Amalie Arena In Tampa, FL.

BREAKING: Paul-Tyson Postponed

Press Release: May 31, 2024 By Official Statement on Paul vs. Tyson Event 

The upcoming highly anticipated boxing match between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will unfortunately be postponed. During a follow up consultation on Thursday with medical professionals on his recent ulcer flare up, the recommendation is for Mike Tyson to do minimal to light training over the next few weeks and then return to full training with no limitations.

Both Mike and Jake are in agreement that it is only fair to ensure that both athletes have equal training time to prepare for this important match and are able to compete at the highest level. The health and well-being of athletes is our top priority, and we fully support Mike in taking the necessary time to allow him to perform at the level he expects of himself.

Mike is expected to return to his full training schedule in the coming weeks and is eager to get back in the ring. MVP anticipates rescheduling the match to later this year at AT&T Stadium, and we look forward to an exciting and well-prepared contest between these two exceptional athletes. The new date of the fight will be announced by next Friday, June 7th. 

“I want to thank my fans around the world for their support and understanding during this time. Unfortunately, due to my ulcer flareup, I have been advised by my doctor to lighten my training for a few weeks to rest and recover,” said Mike Tyson. “My body is in better overall shape than it has been since the 1990s and I will be back to my full training schedule soon. Jake Paul, this may have bought you some time, but in the end you will still be knocked out and out of boxing for good. I appreciate everyone’s patience and can't wait to deliver an unforgettable performance later this year.”

“I fully support postponing the event so Mike Tyson has no excuses come fight night,” said Jake Paul. “My fans know I don’t want to face Iron Mike at anything but his best, but let there be no mistake – when he steps into the ring with me, I will be ready to claim my W with a sensational finish. Paul vs Tyson will be one for the ages, and I promise to bring my best for this once-in-a-lifetime matchup.”

We appreciate your understanding and patience during this time and wish Mike a restful recovery. Previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date. No action is needed to keep current tickets and current seat locations. Those unable to attend the rescheduled date are eligible for a refund at their original point of purchase.

INDIA’S NUMBER ONE BOXER & WBC ASIA TITLE HOLDER NEERAJ GOYAT MAKES MVP DEBUT ON PAUL-TYSON CARD JULY 20 ON NETFLIX

Press Release: May 22, 2024 By Netflix And Most Valuable Promotions -

Goyat vs. Nunes, a professional 6 round super middleweight bout, joins Sylve vs. Schofield and Chavez Jr. vs. Till on the Paul vs. Tyson and Taylor vs. Serrano 2 undercard 

 

Netflix and Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) today announced that India’s number one boxer and MVP’s first international signee, Neeraj Goyat (18-4-2, 8 KOs), will make his MVP debut against Brazil’s multi-talented superstar Whindersson Nunes, who holds a cumulative 2-2-1 record in his boxing career with 1 KO, in a professional 6 round super middleweight bout contested at 165 lbs on Saturday, July 20. Goyat vs. Nunes is the latest must-see global fight on the event’s decorated global card, headlined by The Problem Child, Jake “El Gallo de Dorado” Paul vs. The Baddest Man on the Planet Mike Tyson in the 8 round heavyweight main event, and the most anticipated women’s boxing rematch in history between Katie Taylor and Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano in the co-main event, a 10x2 undisputed super lightweight world title fight. Paul vs. Tyson will stream live globally, exclusively on Netflix from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys. Tickets for the event are on sale now at seatgeek.comand have broken records already for the highest gate of any boxing or MMA event in Texas’ history, a testament to just how big this event is.

Goyat, one of the most viral boxers in the sport, vs. Brazil’s multi-talented star, Nunes is in addition to the recently announced 10 round lightweight battle between MVP’s undefeated young phenom H2O Sylve (11-0, 9 KOs) vs. fellow undefeated top prospect Floyd “Kid Austin” Schofield (17-0, 12 KOs) in a clash of two of boxing’s best prospects. Also on the undercard will be the 6 round 190 lb. cruiserweight bout between veteran Mexican cruiserweight and former WBC middleweight world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (53-6-1, 34 KOs) and UK UFC star Darren Till in Till’s professional boxing debut following his tremendous UFC career, which garnered the fighter 18 wins inside the cage, including 10 knockouts and 2 wins by submission. 

 

Goyat, born in Begampur, Karnal, Haryana, India, began his amateur boxing career in 2006 while attending the Army Sports Institute and quickly began his rise to the top, winning gold in 2008 in the Youth National Tournament. Goyat is a three-time WBC Asia title holder in 2015, 2016, and 2017, was named “Honorary Boxer of the Year” in 2017 by WBC Asia, and was the first Indian boxer ever to make the WBC World Rankings. Goyat was hurt in a car accident in 2019, which postponed a mega fight in the works against Amir Khan, but has since resumed fighting and continues his hunt for greatness. In spring 2024, he surged to the forefront of fighter attention worldwide via his viral social media campaign to fight MVP co-founder and international superstar Jake Paul, which culminated with Goyat traveling to San Juan, Puerto Rico to face off with Paul in person, ultimately signing to MVP. Goyat’s callout and subsequent faceoff set off a seismic wave of engagement across social media, garnering well over 150M views on his social media alone. Goyat will now make his MVP debut on Saturday, July 20 against Nunes. He trains under Kuldeep Keepa.

 

"I couldn't be more excited to make my MVP debut on what promises to be the biggest boxing event in history,” said Neeraj Goyat. “With millions of fans back home in India watching my every move, I'm not just fighting for myself; I'm fighting to make history and make my country proud. Thank you to Nakisa and the entire MVP team and of course Netflix for this opportunity to shine on the biggest stage imaginable. I hope all Indians around the world tune in for this historic event.“

 

Whindersson Nunes, a Brazilian icon and social media superstar, boasts a cumulative 2-2-1 record in his boxing career, with 1 KO. Known for his charismatic presence both inside and outside the ring, Nunes has faced notable opponents, including his 2022 bout against legendary world champion Acelino “Popó” Freitas, which went the distance over 8 rounds and resulted in a draw for the fighters. With a massive following of over 100 million across social platforms, including 59.5 million on Instagram and 44.6 million on YouTube, Nunes is a formidable figure in the digital world. For his upcoming fight, he is sharpening his skills under the guidance of coaches Diego Rodrigues and Caio Franco, and is training alongside Olympic medalist and professional boxing standout Esquiva Falcao, promising his best performance yet. 

 

"I grew up watching big names in boxing, so having the opportunity to be part of this card and challenge myself in this sport is an honor,” said Whindersson Nunes. “As I've said on other occasions, boxing is more than just a fight: it's an art that requires a lot of technique, timing and strategy. I have been preparing myself daily with my coaches to present my best version of a fighter in Texas and, once again, defend and make my country proud."

“By featuring two more international stars in Neeraj Goyat and Whindersson Nunes, alongside the rest of our historic card, we're strategically supplementing Paul vs. Tyson and Taylor vs. Serrano 2 to drive patriotic engagement with the event from two of the biggest countries in the world,” said Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, co-founders of Most Valuable Promotions. “Neeraj Goyat is arguably the greatest Indian boxer of all time and he will now have the opportunity to represent India as a part of one of the biggest boxing events of all time. Whindersson Nunes is returning to the ring against a much more experienced boxer and it shows what a Brazilian badass he is, ready to take on the challenge – you have to respect that. These two fighters are viral content machines and boast incredibly loyal supporters and massive reach across India and Brazil. This isn't just about the thrilling matchups; it's about uniting fans from around the world for an unforgettable experience and to grow the sport of boxing."

Additional information, including further undercard bouts, will be announced at a later date. Tickets are on sale now at seatgeek.com.
