Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul undercard change

The Netflix broadcast for Tyson vs. Paul was originally slated to include the opening three bouts, but during fight week it was announced that the three bouts would instead stream on Most Valuable Promotions and Netflix Sports’ YouTube channels.

The opening bout features rising contender Bruce “Shu Shu” Carrington, who hails from Brownsville, Brooklyn, hometown of Mike Tyson. He will take on Australian featherweight Dana Coolwell in an eight-rounder.

The next bout in the prelims features undefeated lightweight Lucas Bahdi, who last fought on the undercard in Paul’s fight against Mike Perry, scoring a highlight-reel knockout against undefeated MVP prospect Ashton “H2O” Sylve.

The last fight before the main card begins is a women’s super middleweight title fight between Shadasia Green, who was also on the undercard in Paul’s last fight, and the undefeated Melinda Watpool.

Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano in the co-main event of Tyson vs Paul

Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano felt there was unfinished business after their highly entertaining 2022 undisputed title match.

At the time, Taylor and Serrano were considered two of, if not the, best fighters on the planet, and the fight lived up to the billing as they became the first women to headline a boxing card at Madison Square Garden.

Taylor won a closely contested split decision to retain his unified lightweight titles, a decision Serrano still disputes.

Taylor has since moved up to junior welterweight, where she suffered his first career defeat to Chantelle Cameron in an undisputed title match, later avenging the loss and taking the titles in November 2023.

Serrano is the former undisputed and current unified featherweight champion who has been stripped of the WBC title after the sanctioning body refused to allow her to grueling three-minute roundsunlike the regular two-minute rounds in women’s boxing.
