The match, which will be broadcast live on Netflix, was recently sanctioned as a professional bout by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and will count on both fighters' career records.
Tyson hasn't fought professionally since 2005, though he faced Roy Jones Jr. in an exhibition match in 2020. The 27-year-old Paul last stepped into the ring in March, defeating Ryan Bourland via a first-round technical knockout.
