Fans are used to high-priced pay-per-view boxing matches, but watching the Mike Tyson versus Jake Paul fight may not cost you any extra money. Netflix signed a massive deal to broadcast today's Tyson-Paul fight on its streaming service. 

That means fans can watch the match for free with one important caveat: viewers must be a subscriber to Netflix. 

No additional payment is needed as long as you have an active Netflix subscription. The boxing match will be shown in the same app where subscribers watch their favorite shows, movies and documentaries. 

For fans without a Netflix subscription, you can watch the fight for as low as $6.99 per month by signing up.

Paul, 27, is a heavy favorite to defeat the 58-year-old Tyson at -230 betting odds, per Action Network. Paul has a career record of 10-1 with seven knockouts, and Tyson is 50-6 with 44 knockouts.

Netflix has started to invest heavily into live sports, offering several similar events in recent years. In 2023, the streaming service offered a live stream of "The Netflix Cup" which featured some of the top Formula 1 drivers and PGA Tour athletes competing in a golf tournament.

Netflix also has exclusive rights to both NFL games on Christmas Day, featuring the Kansas City Chiefs against the Pittsburgh Steelers at 1 p.m. ET, followed by the Baltimore Ravens against the Houston Texans at 4:30 p.m. ET.
