First look: Mike Tyson steps on the scale for Jake Paul fight

Boxing legend Mike Tyson is looking in great shape for his boxing fight against Jake Paul.

At 58, Tyson stepped on the scale Thursday morning in Irving, Texas, to record his official weight for his boxing bout against Paul, which takes place Friday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. The fight streams live on Netflix.

The fight between Tyson and Paul serves as the main event of the first live sporting event to stream on Netflix.

The contest is scheduled for eight, 2-minute rounds, which is a minute shorter than a typical men’s professional boxing bout. There are other rules in place that differ from the norm.
