Rape lawsuit against Mike Tyson even as boxing fight against Jake Paul nears

Mike Tyson is gearing up for a headline-grabbing boxing duel with Jake Paul. However, there is a over three-decade old sexual assault case that has once again come to the fore.

Former boxing world champion Tyson was accused of raping a woman in 1992. A lawsuit was filed in January in 2023. Subsequently, in June this year, the victim pleaded in the court that she mentioned the wrong date, as per a USA Today report.

Tyson's lawyers have decided to file papers in the court on November 18. Tyson is scheduled to fight Jake Paul at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.


Getting into the ring with Mike Tyson is likely too intimidating for most boxing fans but high-rollers looking to get closer to the action than ever before can do so by spending $2 million for ringside apron seats to his November 15 fight with Jake Paul.

Consulting firm Elevate unveiled on Friday renderings of its premium hospitality package for the fight, a 10-ticket "MVP Owner's Experience" that will seat two people in a private suite less than six-feet from the action in Arlington, Texas.

The ringside apron suite at Tyson's first professional fight in 19 years is the closest to the ring that patron seating has ever been approved by Texas boxing regulators, according to Elevate, and features first-class style premium leather chairs.
