People planning to watch the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight have been warned that their Netflix subscription alone will not be enough to tune in.
Boxing fans are waiting to watch one of the most eagerly anticipated fights of the year with Jake Paul taking on Mike Tyson at the AT&T Stadium in Texas.
The age difference between the pair - Paul, 27, and Tyson, 57 - has been a point of contention throughout the fights promotion - with some branding it 'disgusting'.

The fight is being streamed live on Netflix, but it's going to be a long night for UK viewers who are planning on tuning in.
The official broadcast is due to air in the UK at around 1am, with the main card ring walk at 4am...so you'll probably want to set an alarm,
but just having a Netflix subscription isn't going to be enough to make you an eligible viewer.

Fans however, have been warned that they also need a valid TV licence to tune into watch the fight, as it's a live broadcast.
The network has reiterated its regulations for UK viewers for the streaming service in a statement, which said: "A TV licence is needed to watch live content on streaming services, watch or record a TV programme on any channel and when using BBC iPlayer."
Meaning that anything that isn't live on Netflix is fine to watch without a license, but this fight is going to require one.
It begs the question of what are the consequences for doing so?

Well, those who don't have a TV license who are planning to tune in are liable for a fine of up to £1000...which is more than any pay-per-view we've ever seen.
The fight is scheduled for eight two-minute rounds with knockouts allowed, meaning that anything could really happen in the ring.
During the official weigh-in for the fight, Mike caused a stir by slapping Jake across the face.

The boxer was taunted by Jake prior to the slap, as he crawled toward him and stood on his toe.
Jake claimed that he 'didn't feel' the blow to the face, but stated that the fight was 'personal' now.
The fight was already postponed once back in May this year, after the former heavyweight champion experienced an 'ulcer flare-up' while on a flight.
With that said, fans are more eager than ever to see the pair in the ring.

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson will be available to stream on Netflix from 1am GMT.
