The July matchup between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will now include Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano as the co-main event. Undisputed lightweight champion Taylor (23-1-0) will defend her five world championships against unified featherweight champion Serrano at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on July 20th, since the fight is scheduled to take place at 135 pounds.

More than two years will pass before their highly anticipated rematch in Madison Square Garden in New York City, where Taylor prevailed via split decision in one of the greatest boxing matches ever.

By splitting the decision, Taylor gave Serrano just her second defeat in her professional career and went on to capture the women’s lightweight titles from The Ring, the WBA, WBC, IBF, and WBO.

Jake Paul Makes His Bold Predictions

The event will be available for free and streamed live on Netflix worldwide. This is the first time live combat sports events have aired on the streaming site.

It’s clear who the American fighter will support in the forthcoming match because the YouTuber-turned-boxer has continuously supported Serrano, even promoting her through his organization, Most Valuable Promotions.
