CNN —Mike Tyson’s return to boxing will now take place on November 15, after his fight against Jake Paul was postponed due to the former world heavyweight champion experiencing a medical issue. A representative for the Hall of Fame boxer previously told CNN that Tyson “became nauseous and dizzy” 30 minutes before landing. Tyson announced in a statement that he was advised by his doctor to “lighten [his] training for a few weeks to rest and recover,” causing the bout to be pushed back. However, the fight has now been confirmed to be taking place this November by Most Valuable Promotions (MVP), the company organizing the occasion. ‘Iron Mike’ is taking on YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul, who is 30 years his junior.

▼ + stars: | 2024-05-15 | by ( Jacob Pramuk | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

Netflix will stream Christmas Day NFL games for the next three years, in its first true step into live sports. The streaming platform will show two games on Christmas Day this year, followed by at least one matchup in both 2025 and 2026, the league announced Wednesday. It is unclear how much Netflix paid for the rights to stream the games. Now, Netflix will stream games for the most watched U.S. sports league, at a time when it is trying to boost profits by raising subscription prices, pushing users toward an ad-tier membership and cracking down on password sharing. The three Christmas Day NFL games averaged 28.68 million viewers last year, according to Sports Media Watch.
