Jake Paul isn't lacking in confidence heading into his boxing match against Mike Tyson.

During a sit-down conversation with Tyson posted on his YouTube channel Monday, Paul guaranteed he'll knock out the 58-year-old former heavyweight champion.

"When it happens, it's gonna be a little bittersweet because I have love for him. But at the current moment, we're meant to go to war," Paul, 27, said. "He's trying to take the food off my plate, I'm trying to take the food off of his plate, and that's what warriors do."

When asked to clarify if he thinks he'll knock out Tyson, Paul responded, "It's already written."

Paul and Tyson will square off Friday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, with the bout streaming live on Netflix.
