But organisers – including streaming platform Netflix – turned a blind eye to reschedule the bout. Paul, 27, and Tyson, 58, are set to share a huge $80million (£60m) cash pot as Netflix mark their first move into live boxing. So while millions are expected to watch the fight for the ages – promoter Hearn fears it will come at the cost of boxing’s reputation.

I understand that this freak show may well do good numbers.“But, I think if you genuinely care about the sport and the history of the sport and particularly the legacy of one of the greatest fighters of all time, it’s not something you’d ever consider.“But, I understand their strategy and the business and if it does numbers, they don’t really care how it looks in terms of the empathy of it.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS“I don’t think it’s ever something you’d see a real boxing person get involved with.”Tyson retired in 2005 off the back of two dismal defeats and years of trouble outside the ring.

Both will be subjected to drug testing while Tyson must take additional brain and heart exams due to his age. Paul is 10-1 with only a 2023 points defeat to Tyson Fury’s brother Tommy, 25, blemishing his record. And he plans to put love and respect aside to KO boxing hero Tyson – something Hearn and every other fan dreads. He said: “It’s just a different world isn’t it?
