Boxing fans disappointed that opponents rarely took a Jake Paul fight will get their wish Saturday night when Paul takes on Mike Perry. Perry, the breakout star of the Barry Knuckle Fighting Championship, is a face-first brawler who promises to be in Paul’s face all night long.
Paul was originally slated to face Mike Tyson in what would have been the biggest fight of the summer in terms of pure passion. Tyson had an ulcer outbreak and was postponed until November. Paul isn’t willing to wait for Tyson, and if he fights Perry, he could be in for the biggest money fight of his career.
CBS Sports will be with you the whole way through Saturday, with pay-per-view coverage beginning at 9pm ET, so follow along with live results and highlights below.
