ARLINGTON, Texas — Friday night is the night: Mike Tyson will face Jake Paul at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
And aside from the dramatics of a 58-year-old boxing legend fighting a 27-year-old social media influencer, the Tyson-Paul matchup will have another unique element: It will air live on Netflix.
The streaming giant has waded slowly into the waters of sports streaming, but appears to be ramping that up, especially with two NFL games on Christmas Day this year.
If you have a Netflix subscription, you'll be able to watch Friday night's fight -- no extra pay-per-view price is necessary.
But when will Tyson and Paul actually hit the ring?
The main card -- which includes several fights before Tyson and Paul -- will start at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT/5 p.m. PT on Netflix.
Here's the lineup before they get to the main event in Tyson-Paul:
- Middleweight: Neeraj Goyat vs. Whindersson Nune
- WBC welterweight title: Mario Barrios vs. Abel Ramos
- IBF/IBO/WBC/WBO super lightweight title: Amanda Serrano vs. Katie Taylor
- Heavyweight: Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson
While there are no official times listed on the fights, other than the main card starting at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT/5 p.m. PT, it will obviously take a bit to get through three fights, including breaks between each one and ringwalks ahead of them.
Let's estimate that each fight takes at least 30 minutes from start to finish. If you factor in the ringwalks and other breaks, we're probably looking at Tyson and Paul making their entrance in the 10 p.m ET hour, if not closer to 11 p.m. ET. Again, that's just an estimate. The only thing we know for sure is that the main card starts at 8 p.m. ET on Netflix.
We'll see where it goes from there.
