Boxing is back in the spotlight Friday as 58-year-old Mike Tyson returns to the ring to face 27-year-old Jake Paul, and new customers using BetMGM Sportsbook bonus code ROCKYBET to bet on the bout in a sanctioned state can collect a bonus of up to $1,500.

The Tyson-Paul main card — which also features six preliminary bouts, including a trio of title fights — is slated to get underway at 8 p.m. ET Friday at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Netflix will have the live stream.
Bet on the much-hyped, battle-of-the-ages Tyson-Paul bout while taking advantage of the BetMGM bonus code ROCKYBET welcome offer which refunds 100 percent of new customers’ initial bet stakes up to $1,500 if their wager doesn’t win.
As we noted above, though, not all states with legalized sports betting are permitting Tyson-Paul wagering due to the heavyweight bout’s boxing rule modifications which include shorter, 2-minute rounds and the use of heavier gloves.
Those states not sanctioning Tyson-Paul wagering are Colorado, Kentucky, Louisiana, New York, Pennsylvania and Vermont.

BetMGM bonus code ROCKYBET: Tyson vs. Paul odds preview, top BetMGM promotions
Tyson owns a record of 50-6 with 44 knockouts in a storied career which began in the 1980s — a decade-plus before Paul was born.
But this will be the former heavyweight champ’s first sanctioned fight since June 2005.
Paul, meanwhile, is a YouTube celebrity who began boxing professionally in January 2020. He owns a 10-1 career record with seven knockouts, mainly coming against converted UFC fighters and fellow YouTubers.
It’s an intriguing generational clash to be sure, and BetMGM said earlier this week in a news release that it expects the Tyson-Paul bout to finish as “the most bet on boxing match in BetMGM history.”
And as of Wednesday, Paul was a -190 moneyline favorite with Tyson at +188. But that’s a significant shift from the opening odds of Paul -275/Tyson +275 as the latter, through Wednesday, had attracted 76 percent of the sportsbook’s betting tickets and 59% of the handle, according to the BetMGM release.
New customers can bet on their favorite Tyson-Paul outcome or prop with complete confidence, knowing they’re covered by BetMGM’s bonus code welcome offer up to $1,500.
