On the date that Jake Paul was set for his Netflix showdown with legendary heavyweight Mike Tyson, Jake will now face mixed martial artist and the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship's "Platinum" Mike Perry at the Amalie Arena in Tampa.
MVP has announced that international superstar Jake “El Gallo” Paul (9-1, 6 KOs) will return to the ring for “Fear No Man,” a cruiserweight battle against the incredibly dangerous bare knuckle champion boxer and MMA star “Platinum” Mike Perry (5-0, 3 KOs BKFC) on Saturday, July 20 at AMALIE Arena in Tampa, with the match to be shown live on DAZN pay-per-view.
The fight is taking place on the date that Paul was originally scheduled to face Mike Tyson, with the Tyson fight rescheduled for Nov. 15. due to Tyson being forced out due to medical issues.
Paul vs. Perry will be an eight round cruiserweight bout, as Paul faces his most dangerous opponent to date and puts it all on the line in an incredibly risky fight against the baddest bare knuckle boxer of all time ahead of his bout with the Baddest Man on the Planet, Mike Tyson.
Boxing trailblazer and unified featherweight champion Amanda “The Real Deal” Serrano (46-2-1, 30 KOs) will also return to the ring against Tampa, Florida’s top-10 ranked IBF, WBO, and WBA talent and KO artist, Stevie “Sledgehammer” Morgan (14-1, 13 KOs) in the co-main event.
Serrano vs. Morgan will be a super lightweight battle, contested over 10, two-minute rounds as Serrano aims to display her power at super lightweight against the powerful puncher, Morgan, ahead of her clash with Katie Taylor on Friday, November 15.
