Dana White, the outspoken president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), recently made headlines with his candid remarks about the potential boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. In a no-holds-barred interview, Dana White expressed his strong opinions on the matter, leaving fans and critics alike buzzing. Let’s dive into the details of this fiery debate.
Mike Tyson, the former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, needs no introduction. His ferocious fighting style, knockout power, and larger-than-life persona made him a global icon in the 1980s and ’90s. Now approaching 60, Tyson remains a beloved figure in the combat sports community.
Jake Paul, on the other hand, is a polarizing figure. A social media influencer turned professional boxer, Paul has made waves by taking on opponents from various backgrounds. His brash attitude and willingness to step into the ring have garnered attention, but not always for the right reasons.

Dana White Opens Up on Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul Fight
“When this fight happens, Tyson will be 58 f*cking years old,” Dana White said on the FLAGRANT podcast. “A f*cking almost 60-year-old man shouldn’t be fighting a 27-year-old guy under any circumstances. Even if it’s Mike Tyson. It’s f*cking ridiculous.
“My biggest problem with the Jake Paul thing and how this plays out is, when he actually fought somebody who was a boxer, (Tyson Fury), who had the same type of record he has, who was his age, who was his size, he f*cking lost. So they’re never going to go that f*cking route again, right?”
“If you can keep getting paid, right? 100 percent,” White said. “If you’ve got people that are f*cking dumb enough to pay for that sh*t, then f*cking – you know, good for you. Brilliant move (airing on Netflix), too, because you don’t have to go pay. Everybody has f*cking Netflix. Just turn it on. Ah, f*ck it. I’ll turn it on and see what happens”
As the debate rages on, fight fans eagerly await the rescheduled Tyson-Paul clash. Whether you’re Team Tyson or Team Paul, one thing is certain this fight is gonna be one of the biggest fights of the year.
