Here is the eye-watering amount of money Jake Paul and Mike Tyson have reportedly made after their controversial Netflix fight.

After a postponement and speculation about whether or not it would actually go ahead, YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul managed to beat legendary boxer Mike Tyson in the hotly anticipated Netflix bout at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas.

Although ‘Iron Mike’ looked ahead during the early rounds of the fight, the 58-year-old soon began to tire out – allowing the much younger Paul to ultimately win the match via unanimous decision.

However, it’s fair to say that both men are winners when it comes to the amount of money made.

During the lead up to the fight, Paul had made no secret of the fact that his main motive for taking on Tyson was financial gain, telling SPORTbible in an exclusive interview: “This is definitely my biggest payday, of all the fights for sure.”

Tyson on the other hand, had appeared less forthcoming when it came to talk of money, adding that he was instead ‘seeking glory’ from the bout.

However, we imagine that Tyson is certainly grateful for the bumper paycheck after losing to 27-year-old Paul.

According to numerous reports, Tyson has walked away with a tidy $20 million (£15.8 million) for his efforts. Paul on the other hand, is set to have banked a much higher fee – earning a whopping $40 million (£31.7 million) for his trouble.

Which means that when it comes down to the cash – let’s be honest here – both men have left the ring winners.

This may not be the final total for both of the men either, with Paul even claiming the pair could be in to make some pretty hefty bonuses should certain targets be hit during the fight.

“There are definitely certain guaranteed figures and other certain built-in bonuses and stuff on top of sales – key performance indicators that trigger certain things,” Paul explained.

Paul didn’t elaborate further on the bonuses, however, we can only imagine it’s been a pretty lucrative night for The Problem Child.

Jake Paul has revealed how his upcoming Mike Tyson fight could be his ‘biggest payday’ thanks to some pretty lucrative bonuses in his contract.

It’s time to set your alarms boxing fans, as one of the most highly anticipated fights of 2024 is set to happen in just under two days.

This Friday (15 November) Jake ‘The Problem Child’ Paul will face off against Tyson in-front of up to 80,000 fans at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas and even more tuning in from home on Netflix.

Considering the amount of coverage leading up to the fight it’s very likely that both Paul and Tyson are set to get a major payday, with the former YouTuber recently boasting in a press conference that he is set to make £31 million ($40m).

Which certainly make spending eight rounds being punched by Mike Tyson sound a lot more appealing.

Meanwhile 58-year-old ‘Iron Mike’ is said to have accepted a deal of £15.4 million ($20m) according to reports published by The Sun. However, the official figures have not been released to public.

Paul meanwhile seems to have made it is his mission to let absolutely everyone who is willing to listen know that he is in line to make serious money from the fight – which includes some pretty lucrative bonuses.

Speaking about how much extra cash the pair could make during an exclusive interview with SPORTbible, Paul claimed built-in bonus clauses meant the he and his 58-year-old opponent could be in line for a big pay out.

“There are definitely certain guaranteed figures and other certain built-in bonuses and stuff on top of sales – key performance indicators that trigger certain things,” The Problem Child explained.

The 28-year-old remained coy on exactly how much extra he could be making, but made sure to let us all know the match is set to be a very big payday for him.

“This is definitely my biggest payday, of all the fights for sure,” he added. “It is definitely a healthy payday.”

Tyson on the other hand stated that he is going into the fight wanting glory instead of cash.

“This fight is not going to change my life financially,” he added. “If I did it for free, it’s not going to change my life. My wife is constantly telling me, you do not need to do this fight.

“This is what I want to do, this is me. I’m seeking my glory.”

After eight rounds of boxing that were two minutes each, Paul came out on top via unanimous decision, defeating Iron Mike in the first-of-its-kind event on Netflix.

Tyson came out of the blocks strongly in the first couple of rounds, but as the fight went on, Paul grew into it and began to dominate the 58-year-old, landing far more punches on Iron Mike has the rounds went on.

The odd behaviour was picked up by reporters too, as one asked why he did it.

The announcer asked: “Was it a mouthpiece issue, or were you just biting on your glove?”

Mike Tyson answered: “I have a habit of biting my glove.”

The announcer replied: “Why?”

To which, Tyson oddly admitted: “I have a biting fixation.”

However, some of this bigger fans took to social media to defend him, as they think it should be common knowledge to boxing fans.

Taking to X, one user wrote: “My man, Tyson’s mouthpiece is fine.

“He bites his gloves. He’s done it forever. Stop talking about his mouthpiece.”

Another pointed out: “Tyson’s ‘I have a biting fixation’ comment in the post-fight interview when asked if he was biting his glove or having issues with his mouthguard is up there with some of the all-time funniest”

A third joked: “Tyson has chewed on his gloves more times than he’s used them to throw an actual punch.”

The biting comments from Tyson come almost 30 years after the infamous incident where he bit off Evander Holyfield’s ear in the ring, during a bout in June 1997.

Fans tonight have already been given a jump-scare as footage from Tyson’s locker room revealed that his bare a** was out, while some fans have endured streaming problems while trying to get the fight up.

Paul’s walk-out song in homage to Tyson’s role in The Hangover film also caught the attention of viewers.

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are set to face off in a first-of-its-kind Netflix boxing event live streamed around the world.

Taking place in the home of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, both fighters will square off at the AT&T Stadium in Texas, USA, with tempers flaring big time in the hours before the fight after Iron Mike slapped Paul at their final face-to-face encounter.

More than 70,000 people are expected to be in attendance for the bout – including someone who paid $2 million for a ticket – making it the biggest ever American boxing event outside of Las Vegas.

With the event streamed live on Netflix, more than 280 million people will be given the fight to watch for free as part of their current subscription package.

When is the Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight?

Paul and Tyson will conduct their ring walks at around 10pm local time at the Dallas Cowboys’ stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Friday (15 November).

Given this is Central Time (CT), the UK is six hours ahead of this under GMT.

That means that the ring walks should take place at around 4am on Saturday (16 November). It isn’t an exact time by any means though, with it potentially being brought forward or even going later depending on how the previous fights go.

All in all, there are seven other fights taking place, with Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano fighting in the co-main event for the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring lightweight titles.

How to watch Paul vs. Tyson if you don’t have Netflix

If you don’t already have Netflix, there is a workaround to essentially get it for free as part of a package deal. At the moment Sky is currently offering Netflix, Sky Stream, with Sky TV and Sky Full Fibre 300 Broadband, all for just £36 as part of its Black Friday deal. And given that its Full Fibre 300 broadband is usually £29 a month, for just £10 more you’ll also get access to Sky TV and Netflix for not much more.

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson rules explained

The fight has been sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, meaning the result will go on each boxer’s records.

It isn’t a normal bout, though, with the rules different to a standard heavyweight fight.

Firstly, the gloves will be heavier at 14 ounces instead of 10. This means the punches will not land as hard due to the extra padding, as well as protecting each boxer’s hands more than at 10-ounce gloves.

The rounds will also be two minutes each, instead of the usual three. And there will be eight rounds of boxing, not 12.

Some have questioned if this makes it a true match, while others have said as long as it is sanctioned, it is legitimate.
