(Reuters) - Boxing great Mike Tyson and YouTuber-turned-prizefighter Jake Paul's July 20 bout in Arlington will be a sanctioned, professional fight that will count on both men's records, the fight promoter said on Monday.

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission will work with social media platforms to regulate the issue of social media use among children below 13, says Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching .

She added that, at this juncture, most social media platforms do not allow children below 13 to utilise these platforms. “While there are no specific laws or regulations currently that directly address children’s access to social media platforms, there are provisions in various pieces of legislation that deal with child protection, such as the Penal Code, the Sexual Offences against Children Act, the Communications and Multimedia Act, the Child Act, as well as the Computer Crimes Act,” she added.
