How (and when) to watch the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight in Australia

Controversial influencer and YouTuber Jake Paul and his equally unlikeable brother Logan Paul have made a small fortune challenging elderly boxing champs to step into the ring. So far, the younger Paul's short boxing career has been a rather successful one, with ten wins, one loss and seven wins by knockout since his career began in earnest back in 2020. He's gone toe to toe with some of the biggest names in boxing, including Nate Diaz, Anderson Silva and Tommy Fury (who gave Paul his first L back in February 2023. But there's no single living person with a bigger name in boxing than Paul's next opponent, Mike Tyson. Despite a 31-year age gap (the biggest age gap in the profession's history,) Jake Paul will enter the ring with Iron Mike this coming weekend in an officially sanctioned fight streaming exclusively on Netflix. 

Netflix probably isn't the first place that comes to mind when you think about live-streaming fights but then again, this isn't your typical fight. Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson will live stream exclusively on Netflix in Australia. Plans start at $7.99 per month if you can stomach a few ads and standard definition (SD) streaming.  Netflix Standard will get you 1080p High Definition streaming on two devices at $18.99 per month and Netflix Premium will get you 4K streaming on four devices at $25.99 per month. Netflix doesn't offer a free trial. 

There's no doubt 99% of the people tuning in will be doing so exclusively to see Jake Paul get pummelled by a 58-year-old thrashing machine. If there is a God above, the GIF below should be an accurate depiction of the crowd's reaction come Saturday. 

This is, however, an officially sanctioned fight. Despite being promoted by Paul's own company Most Valuable Promotions, it was at Tyson's request that their fight would be official, rather than a flashy exhibition match. So there are five other serious fights happening before Jake Paul and Mike Tyson enter the ring, starting with a Lightweight match-up between Lucas Bahdi and Corey Marksman. Here's every match-up on Saturday's card, in order:

1. Lucas Bahdi vs. Corey Marksman
2. Shadasia Green vs. Melinda Watpoo
3. Neeraj Goyat vs. Whindersson Nunes
4. WBC Welterweight Title: Mario Barrios vs. Abel Ramos
5. Lightweight title: Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano
6. Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson

Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson will live stream everywhere Netflix is available, at the same time. But if you're interested in seeing what the US version of the streaming service has to offer, there are ways to access the American library with a VPN. Not every VPN will work but we've had repeated success with NordVPN. Note: Using a VPN to bypass geo-blocked content libraries is technically against Netflix's terms of service, so there's a small chance if you sign up to an international Netflix library from Australia that you will have your account blocked with no way of getting a refund on your first month's bill.
