Jake Paul will be doing more than fighting Mike Perry Saturday.

He’ll be putting his much-anticipated fight against Mike Tyson at risk.

Paul (9-1, 6 KOs) has claimed that a loss to Perry, a bare-knuckle brawler, would cost him a chance to fight Tyson in a bout set for Nov. 15. How Paul fares against Perry, a former mixed martial arts fighter who in 2015 lost his only pro boxing match, could be determined early.

Perry will spend no time sizing up Paul in their cruiserweight fight scheduled for eight rounds, according to Perry’s trainer, James “JT” Taylor. He said Perry will pressure Paul from the outset.

“Everybody that sized Jake up in the very beginning got picked apart,’’ Taylor told USA TODAY Sports. “We’re not doing that. It’s going to feel claustrophobic in there.

“This is not going to be a boxing match. This is not where you’re going to see the best two technique guys go against each other. No, you’re not going to see that. You’re going to see a fight.’’
