Th 27-year-old is set to face boxing legend Tyson in the ring tonight (November 15) at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The pair have exchanged several slanging matches against one another in the run up to tonight, but last night's weigh-in (November 14) turned physical when Tyson slapped Paul across the face.
Tyson weighed in 1lb heaver than Paul, coming in at 16st 4lb.
Facing off to each other, Paul crawled up to his opponent and was quickly greeted with a slap.

Paul staggered backyards after the brutal blow as Tyson was pushed back from Paul by security.
Taunting the 58-year-old, Paul blew kisses to him as he was ushered away.
Speaking after the slap, the YouTuber said: "I didn't even feel it. He's angry. He's an angry little elf."
Paul went on to promise: "Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap, buddy, but tomorrow you're getting knocked out."
He further ranted: "It’s personal now. Now he’s got to die."

Ahead of this evening, many have questioned why Tyson is returning to the ring after almost 20 years of retirement, especially to face an amateur fighter like Paul.
While he's set for a big payday, he insisted that money wasn't a contributing factor to his decision.
When asked by LADbible Group how much he believed he could make from the fight, Tyson said: "This fight is not going to change my life financially. If I did it for free, it’s not going to change my life financially. My wife is constantly telling me, you do not need to do this fight."
He went on to say of his reasoning for accepting the high profile fight: "This is what I want to do, this is me. I’m seeking my glory."
