However, the early start might be worth it if the recent hype ahead of the clash is anything to go by.
Tyson and Paul have been exchanging a war of words for many weeks now – but this all came to a head at the weigh-in on Thursday night when Iron Mike Tyson SLAPPED Jake Paul around the face.
Tyson, who weighed-in at 228.4lbs, was sporting a pair of Versace briefs when he walked over to Paul after his weigh-in and landed a right-handed slap on the YouTuber’s face.
As quickly as it happened, Tyson was ushered off and away from Paul by security, which led Jake Paul to laugh it off and playing up to the crowd by brushing his bearded face.
Paul then sat down at the front of the stage (cross-legged) and appeared to start meditating.
The two fighters are reported to be earning a share of an $80m purse – while Paul is expected to enter the ring wearing a $1m walkout outfit.
Ahead of the fight, the best boxing betting sites in the UK are making Jake Paul the favourite to win.
