Two international sensations join a stacked card highlighted by Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson on July 20. India’s Neeraj Goyat faces Whindersson Nunes on a Most Valuable Promotions-produced fight card in Texas’ AT&T Stadium.
Goyat turned pro in 2011 and has an 18-4-2 record with eight wins via knockout. The 2008 Youth National Tournament gold medalist is the first Indian to have made the WBC rankings. In 2014, he beat former WBA featherweight champion Can Xu, his biggest win so far.
Goyat had an eight-fight win streak snapped by Jose Zepeda in March 2023 but recovered last year with a TKO win over Phakorn Aiemyod. He now makes his anticipated Most Valuable Promotions and U.S. debut.
"I couldn't be more excited to make my MVP debut on what promises to be the biggest boxing event in history,” said Goyat. “With millions of fans back home in India watching my every move, I'm not just fighting for myself; I'm fighting to make history and make my country proud."

Neeraj Goyat's history with Jake Paul
It was reported in December 2023 that Paul and Goyat would fight one another after the latter challenged Paul, with his callout video getting over 2.4 million likes.
"Challenging Jake Paul is more than a personal pursuit; it's a mission to showcase the strength and prowess of Indian boxers worldwide,” Goyat said via WION News. “Stepping into the ring with Jake is an opportunity to make a resounding statement for boxing enthusiasts globally.”
Paul responded by saying, “Any time, any place,” bringing up that Goyat is small, and Paul would fight him with one arm tied behind his back. He has even teased fighting Goyat in India.
Before Paul’s fight with Ryan Bourland in March, Goyat went in Puerto Rico, the fight location, and confronted Paul during training. Paul said he respected Goyat for showing up while taunting him by telling him he was afraid to fight. The video earned over 128K likes an hour after posting and has reached 1.2 million views.
Following that interaction, Goyat signed with Most Valuable Promotions.
