Jake Paul vs Mike Perry fight live updates, round-by-round analysis

It was one-way traffic as Jake Paul finished Mike Perry in round six, securing a dominant win ahead of his bout against Mike Tyson in November.

Paul (10-1, 7 KOs) picked up three knockdowns in the fight before the referee stepped in to stop the fight. Perry (0-2) was aggressive throughout but was defensively vulnerable and Paul took advantage. Paul first put Perry down with a big left hand in the opening minute of the fight and it didn't get much better from there for Perry.

In round two Paul picked up another knockdown, this time with the right hand, but to Perry's credit he showed heart to push past the knockdowns and fight on after clearly being shaken. Paul slowed the pace slightly in the middle rounds but in round six Paul caught Perry again, putting him to the canvas for the final time and ultimately ending the fight.

"Mike Perry you're the toughest son of a b---h I've ever seen in my life," Logan Paul, Jake's brother, said in the ring afterwards.

A bomb of a left hook sent Perry backwards into the ropes and Paul pounced, landing a barrage of shots that finally put Perry into the canvas. He got up for a third time, but the referee had seen enough and called a stop to the bout.

Paul now turns to the highly anticipated matchup against Mike Tyson this November, which he confirmed is up next for him.

"100% it's happening ... Mike Tyson is in training," Paul said after the fight.

Paul and Tyson were originally supposed to square off this weekend, but an injury to Tyson delayed his training, forcing the fight to be postponed. The bout will now take place on Nov. 15, still at AT&T Stadium and still streaming free on Netflix.

“Mike, I love you, but this is my sport now,’’ Paul said in the ring. “You’re a legend. You’re one of the two most famous boxers to ever live. You and Muhammad Ali. It’s an honor to get in the ring with you. I’m so, so honored, you’re a legend. But I’m going to take your throne, brother.”

Amanda Serrano picked up a win in Saturday's co-main event, ahead of her rematch against Katie Taylor in the co-main event of Tyson vs. Paul. Serrano blasted out Stevie Morgan in two rounds for her first knockout win in three years, in just her second ever fight above 135 pounds.

Her rematch against Taylor is the most anticipated fight in women's boxing, after Taylor won a split decision in a thrilling first fight two years ago at Madison Square Garden. November's fight will be for Taylor's undisputed junior welterweight titles.

Amanda Serrano defeated Stevie Morgan in dominant fashion, stopping her in the second round of Saturday's co-main event. Serrano improved to 47-2-1 with 31 wins by knockout, after not having won a fight by knockout since 2021.

It was just Serrano's second ever fight above 135 pounds, but that didn't matter as she battered Morgan for two rounds before the referee stepped in and stopped the bout. From the opening bell Serrano jumped on Morgan, unloading combinations and connecting at a high rate. That continued into round two until the stoppage, which seemed inevitable with the pressure Serrano was applying.

Morgan was not on Serrano's level and by all accounts this was a stay-fresh bout ahead of Serrano's rematch against Katie Taylor in November on the undercard of Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul. Taylor won the first fight by split decision and the rematch will be for Taylor's undisputed 140-pound titles.

Great opening round for Serrano, a stoppage looks likely in this one. It didn't take long, midway through the round with the pressure piling on the referee steps in and stops the fight!

Sylve was in full control of the fight, likely having won every round when out of nowhere Bahdi caught Sylve with his guard down, landing two right hands that stunned him before putting him down with a vicious left hook.

Sylve looked stellar up until the knockout. He controlled the pace and the distance of the fight, landing almost at will while avoiding most of Bahdi's counter shots. Sylve was picking his spots perfectly and looking every bit the elite prospect he'd been touted as.

The knockout came out of nowhere and will likely be a knockout of the year contender, as Bahdi improves to 17-0 and Sylve suffers his first career defeat. Sylve had outlanded Bahdi 101-39 before the knockout.

Sylve putting the pressure on to start round six, gets tagged a couple times coming in but lands some real nice shots as he ups the output on Bahdi. Bahdi has been in the same gear all fight long, despite his corner now urging him to pick it up. Out of nowhere Bahdi knocks Sylve out cold! WOW! Bahdi looked fully out of it, uninspired, but out of thin air he lands clean on Sylve and puts him down face first. Bahdi hands Sylve his first loss.

Despite being 10 years younger, Sylve looks the far more experienced and comfortable fighter in there. A stoppage certainly could be in the cards if Sylve steps on the gas. More of the same in round five as Sylve is controlling the pace of the fight, maintaining his distance and connecting efficiently when he steps into range.

Sylve pushing the pace to open round four, using his reach to avoid Bahdi's shots while connecting frequently. "H2O" picking his spots to step into to range, unloading a few shots before stepping back out of range. Bahdi still hasn't upped his output despite losing every round so far; he's landing on occasion on the inside but nothing that's fazed Sylve.

Sylve looking really comfortable so far, Bahdi hasn't been able to get to him and he's landing on almost every combination he throws. In the final minute Sylve catches Bahdi with a counter right hand on the temple that shakes him. Sylve sticking and moving well in this one.

Bahdi is fighting patiently, not much output from him so far, while Sylve is picking his spots to get inside and unload. Not much coming from Sylve this round either, but when he throws combinations they've been effective. Two good rounds to start from Sylve.

"H2O" is MVP's best prospect and looks to have a real future at lightweight, but Bahdi represents a test as the first undefeated fighter Sylve's faced. Sylve applying the pressure in the opening round, walking Bahdi down and landing some solid shots when he gets at close range.

Corey Marksman defeated Tony Aguilar by majority decision, avenging a February draw against Aguilar and improving to 10-0-1. The judges' scorecards were a 76-76 draw, then 77-75 and 78-74 for Marksman.

While Aguilar tried to fight on the inside and make Marksman uncomfortable, Marksman did well throughout to keep a little distance and outbox his opponent. Aguilar looked as though he was coming on in the middle rounds, taking a step back and finding success on the back foot, but Marksman finished the fight strong to secure a win in the rematch.

Aguilar keeping more distance this round and looks a lot better, letting Marksman come to him. Fight still being fought at a close range, but by fighting on the back foot Aguilar seems to be finding holes in Marksman much easier. Aguilar's best round of the fight.

Marksman willing to trade on the inside, but he's been very smart about how long he stays at that range. Aguilar just hasn't been able to get inside much so far, and when he does get inside he's struggled to land significant shots. Aguilar not out of the fight by any means, but it's been a good start to the fight from Marksman.

Marksman has a 33-20 connect advantage after two. In the opening minute Marksman catches Aguilar and swarms him, landing a number of nice shots. Aguilar catches him with a shot right after though.

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. defeated Uriah Hall by unanimous decision in Saturday's pay-per-view opener. The judges' scorecards were 59-55, 59-55 and 58-56 all for Chavez Jr.

Chavez Jr. started the fight moving around the ring to avoid Hall's pressure and boxing on the back foot, taking the early rounds. Hall began to come on in the second half of the fight, with his pressure resulting in more significant connects, but throughout the bout Chavez Jr. continued connecting on the back foot, targeting Hall's body in what was a messy fight.

Jake is following suit later this year with his own matchup against boxing royalty, as he takes on Mike Tyson in November.

Amanda Serrano vs. Stevie Morgan fight

The co-main event of Paul vs. Perry will see MVP's most accomplished fighter, Amanda Serrano, take on Stevie Morgan ahead of her highly anticipated rematch against Katie Taylor in November. Originally Taylor-Serrano II was scheduled for this weekend as the co-main event to Tyson vs. Paul, but with that fight being postponed, it made sense that the chief support would be pushed back as well.

In the meantime, Serrano will take a soft touch to stay fresh. Her opponent Morgan has won six straight fights by first round stoppage, but those fights did all come against low-level opponents in Colombia. Morgan has fought 10 times since the start of 2023 though.

Serrano is a unified featherweight champion and will be moving up to 140 pounds for this fight, just the third time in her career she's done so with the undisputed 140-pound title fight against Taylor looming.

Jake Paul vs Mike Perry fight pick, predictions

Besides a one-off fight almost a decade ago, which Perry lost, he has no real boxing experience while Paul has been consistently training in the sport for years now. Perry's best chance of winning likely comes on the inside; if he can get inside on Paul and unleash his power then Paul could find himself in trouble.

But Paul will likely be too smart to allow that to happen. While not the best boxer, Paul does have a good ring IQ and the smart gameplan for him will be to use his advantages in size and reach to keep Perry at a distance. Paul has also shown real one-punch knockout power, while we've never seen how Perry's power will translate with gloves on.

It's possible Paul doesn't want to take any risks with the Tyson fight looming and boxes his way to a comfortable decision on the cards, but if he wants to go for it, I could see Paul catching Perry with his guard down later in the fight and putting him down for the count.

Predictions: Paul def. Perry by UD | Serrano def. Morgan by TKO-8 | Ashton "H2O" Sylve def. Lucas Bahdi by UD | Tony Aguilar def. Corey Marksman by MD | Uriah Hall def. Julio Cesar Chavez by UD | Shadasia Green def. Natasha Spence by UD.
