Speaking about the undercard, Tela Mange, Communications Manager for the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations, said it’s not ‘unusual’ to secure a date and venue before proposing the fighters.

Boxing fans speculated as to who would win the looming battle, with many hinting that Tyson would clean house and crush Paul during the bout.

We already know who wins.

USA Today added:

Although the fight has not been given an official designation yet, reports indicate that the fight is leaning towards being an exhibition.

USA Today’s Josh Peter mentions that San Antonio boxing promoter Cameron Davies claimed that he has “spoken to a key member of the Texas Combatants Sports staff and is ’99 percent’ certain the Tyson-Paul fight will be classified as an exhibition.”
