Mauro Ranallo, a sports broadcaster with extensive experience in the world of combat sports, will handle the ringside play-by-play duties for the fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul.
The broadcast team for the main event on a fight card with six other bouts Nov. 15 will include Roy Jones Jr., actress Rosie Perez and Tyson’s oldest son, Amir.
Those are some of the notable names assembled by Netflix, which will livestream the event and on Thursday announced the details, along with Most Valuable Promotions (MVP), which was co-founded by Paul and has partnered with Netflix.
Ranallo, a Canadian who handled play-by-play duties for the fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Conor McGregor in 2017, has called every major combat sport on national TV, according to his website. He’ll be assisted ringside at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, by Jones, the former heavyweight world champion, and Perez, an avid boxing fan known by some as “The First Lady of Boxing."
Amir Tyson will serve as a ringside reporter.
Other key members of the broadcast team include Kate Scott, a British sportscaster who will serve as the main host; Andre Ward, the former boxing champion who will serve as the lead booth analyst, and Ariel Helwani, who will serve as a reporter.
In addition to broadcasting the fight, Netflix also will provide coverage of open workouts on Tuesday, a press conference Wednesday and the weigh-in Thursday.
