Kate Abdo set to headline star-studded broadcast team for Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight - with one of heavyweight star's former rivals also set to join as a ringside analyst

Kate Abdo is set to lead a star-studded broadcast team for the highly-anticipated clash between Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson next week.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer will take on Iron Mike at Arlington's AT&T Stadium in Texas on November 15 in what many are calling a 'clash of generations'.

The fight was originally slated for July, only for Tyson to suffer a medical emergency on a plane. An 'ulcer flare-up' saw Tyson become nauseous and dizzy before paramedics later came on board.

However, the fight was re-booked and now we are one week away from Tyson's first sanctioned fight for two decades and the broadcast team for the event has been confirmed.

The fight will be shown on Netflix and the streaming giants have revealed that British sports broadcaster Kate Abdo will be the headline the punditry team.

Accompanying the 43-year-old will be former two-weight world champion Andre Ward as a lead analyst.

Meanwhile, Mauro Ranallo will lead the ringside play-by-play commentary, with Tyson's former foe Roy Jones Jr and Rosie Perez so to provide ringside analysis.

Boxing legends Tyson and Jones had an eight-round exhibition fight in 2020 which was scored as a draw.

Tyson has revealed how he threw up blood before passing out during the medical emergency that postponed the initial date for his fight with Jake Paul .

The 58-year-old became nauseous and dizzy on a flight from Miami to LA earlier this year, forcing airline staff to ask passengers if there was a doctor on board.

Paramedics later boarded the plane to treat Tyson after it had touched down in Los Angeles - with Iron Mike stating he was 'defecating tar'.

Tyson was taken straight to hospital and treated by a series of doctors, who refused to rule out of the possibility of death, according to Iron Mike.

During Netflix 's docu-series in the build up to Tyson's fight with Paul, the 58-year-old explained how the doctors had found a two and a half inch ulcer.

Tyson said: 'A week and a half ago I was training and I was doing great. Then I started feeling tired. I was explaining to my trainer, I don't know what is wrong with me.

'Then coming here from Miami on the plane, I went to the bathroom and I threw up blood. The next thing I knew I was on the floor. I was defecating tar.

'I went to the hospital and they found I had an ulcer. It was two and a half inches, it was bleeding. All my friends were calling me like I was dying.

'I asked the doctor whether I was going to die and she didn't say no. She said we have options though. That's when I got nervous.'

Iron Mike finished by saying: 'I just wanted to get out of that f***ing hospital bed.'
