How do Tyson and Paul's records compare?
Tyson and Paul's records are worlds, and years, apart.
Tyson made his professional debut in 1985, 12 years before Paul was born.
Over a 20-year career, Tyson won 50 fights, losing just six with 44 knockouts.
He is the youngest heavyweight champion ever having achieved the feat aged 20. He is a two-time heavyweight champion and reigned as undisputed champion between 1987 and 1990, beating the likes of Frank Bruno, Michael Spinks and Larry Holmes.
Tyson retired in 2005 after back-to-back stoppage losses, but has done a few exhibition fights - including against Roy Jones Jr in 2020 - since then.
However, Paul is the favourite going into the contest for several reasons.
At 27 he firmly has youth on his side even if there is a big gap in experience. Paul has built a big career in the ring as one of the world's most famous YouTubers.
He jumped on the trend of YouTuber boxing in 2018 before having his first pro fight in 2020. Paul has fought a host of recognisable names, but many of them are MMA fighters trying out boxing for the first time.
Wins over former UFC fighters Nate Diaz, Tyron Woodley and Anderson Silva have been big spectacles. His only loss was to boxer and Love Island star Tommy Fury in 2023.
Paul's most recent win was over former UFC fighter and bare-knuckle fighter Mike Perry in July.
Paul has never fought more than eight rounds, with seven stoppages on his record.
In comparison, Paul has boxed 52 rounds while Tyson has fought 215 rounds.
How do Taylor and Serrano's records compare?
Taylor and Serrano's first fight couldn't have been closer and they have two of the best records in boxing.
Serrano is a seven-weight world champion while Taylor is among an elite club in the modern era to win undisputed titles in two weight classes.
Taylor, 38, has 23 wins and just one loss on her record, a 2023 defeat by Chantelle Cameron she avenged in her next fight.
Serrano, 36, is one of the most seasoned pro female fighters on the scene today with 47 wins, two losses and one draw on her record.
Taylor has one of those victories over Serrano, while the other one was way back in 2012 at super-featherweight to Frida Wallberg.
We saw in the first fight how their styles gelled perfectly and just how many punches were thrown between them. A combined 320 punches were landed over the 10 rounds.
Taylor won a narrow split decision in an instant classic at Madison Square Garden in April 2022.
The Irishwoman suffered her first defeat since then while Serrano became undisputed champion at featherweight as she amassed five more wins.
What belts are on the line for Taylor v Serrano?
Taylor will defend her WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO light-welterweight titles, as well as the Ring Magazine belt.
Their last fight was at lightweight for the same belts.
Serrano is a former world champion at light-welterweight but that was in 2018.
Tyson v Paul fight predictions
Former cruiserweight world champion Tony Bellew: "Fingers crossed that Mike [Tyson] has that one big right hand in him and he saves boxing, because this guy [Jake Paul] is single-handedly trying to destroy it."

Seven-weight world champion Amanda Serrano: "Come on, Jake Paul."
Undisputed light-welterweight champion Katie Taylor: "You can never bet against a legend, Mike Tyson."
