Jake Paul and Mike Tyson have been handed mandatory 24-day suspensions by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation following their high-profile bout in Arlington on Saturday. The YouTuber-turned-boxer and former undisputed heavyweight champion received the minimum suspension period required by the state's regulatory body.

In the buildup to Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson, there were questions about the Netflix boxing headliner being a real fight, particularly because it featured a 27-year-old squaring off against a 58-year-old.

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson have been officially suspended by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) following their much-discussed eight-round bout in Arlington. The decision comes as part of TDLR’s standard protocol requiring fighters to take mandatory rest periods after competing.

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation states that "contestants who are age 36 or older, must submit a report of favorable physical testing."

The bout attracted a record-breaking crowd of 70,000 fans, with Paul securing a unanimous decision victory after eight rounds, thereby improving his professional record to 11-1. This match marked Tyson's return to the ring almost 20 years after his retirement.
