People have noticed one specific detail in Mike Tyson that they think has already decided the fight

The Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight means 'trouble' for one of the fighters

Ahead of the Jake Paul versus Mike Tyson epic fight, fans have noticed the same thing when it comes to Tyson which they reckon means the fight is already decided.

This first-of-its-kind Netflix streamed event is ready to kick off tonight at the AT&T Stadium in Texas, USA.

Both men have been seen battling with their tempers just hours before the fight is due to take place, with Iron Mike slapping Paul at their promo meet-up.

With more than 70,000 people expected to be in attendance, and someone who paid $2 million for a ticket (crazy business), this fight is currently holding the title of the biggest ever American boxing event outside of Las Vegas.

Because fans can also watch it on Netflix, it’s expected to rake in over 280 million online viewers.

As tensions have been mounting and the clock has been counting down the hours until we’ll finally find out whether Paul (who’s been talking some mad smack to Tyson) can overthrow one of the world’s greatest.

This massive amount of attention on the fight has brought fans to follow Tyson’s journey to beefing up via TikTok.

There have been so many videos showing him preparing for the fight ahead with rigorous training and some pretty gnarly fight training videos.

But there was one thing viewers all noticed about Iron Mike, and if it’s true, Paul is dust.

It’s his eyes in recent footage.

During a conversation with BBC Sport, Tyson was asked about Paul, what he thinks of him and how he predicts the fight will go.

You can watch below. Make sure you pay attention to his eyes:

While the fighter shared that he thinks that ‘Jake is a great person’ he is also an ‘inferior’ fighter which means that he’s ‘in a lot of trouble’.

While his words were cold when it came to talking about the fight, his eyes were even colder.

People in the comments called it out immediately, and some were even excited about what it means for tonight.

One person wrote: “The eyes are back!!!!”

Another commented: “The thousand yard stare is terrifying.”

Someone else predicted: “This Tyson is more scary than Iron Mike. The calm and collected but straight killer eyes and mind. This is going to be interesting.”

Finally, another commenter wrote: “That is not the same Mike Tyson I'm used to seeing. He doesn't even look like the same man. Jake Paul awakened the darkness in Mike, and you can physically see it in his face.”

Paul and Tyson are set to do their ring walk at around 10pm local time at the Dallas Cowboys' stadium in Arlington, Texas, which is around 4am tomorrow for us UK people.

At the stadium, there are six other fights taking place, such as Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano fighting in the co-main event for the WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO lightweight titles.

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation have sanctioned the event too, which means that the result will go on each boxer's records.

The rules are also different than standard heavyweight fights, as their gloves will be 14 pounds heavier instead of 10, and this padding will allow them to land softer punches.

Rounds will also be two minutes long instead of three, and there will be eight rounds instead of 12.

For all at home, you can expect to see a once-in-a-lifetime fight between the pair and find out who’s going to reign supreme.
