Paul VS Tyson - BHOUT, the first punching bag with a brain, partners with the most significant sports event of the decade

LISBON, Portugal, Nov. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The BHOUT Bag, world's first "punching bag with a brain" developed by Portuguese fit-tech startup BHOUT, will be showcased in the VIP areas of the AT&T Stadium, home to the Dallas Cowboys, and Toyota Music Pavilion, leading up to the highly anticipated Paul vs. Tyson fight on November 15th. The event is expected to reach up to 280M viewers worldwide via a live Netflix broadcast, solidifying its status as one of the most significant sports events of the decade.

BHOUT's collaboration in this event brings this revolutionary fitness technology to the forefront, showcasing it alongside some of the biggest names in combat sports.
