Jake Paul and Mike Tyson will be paid handsomely for their November 15 professional boxing bout. The two heavyweight boxers will be taking money from ticket sales at the AT&T Stadium and the streaming service Netflix.

How much are Jake Paul and Mike Tyson Being Paid?

Jake Paul, the 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer, has hinted at a potential $40 million payout for the fight. During a promotional press conference, Paul stated his intention to “make 40 million dollars and knock out a legend.”

On the other hand, Mike Tyson, the 58-year-old former undisputed heavyweight champion, is reportedly set to earn at least $20 million for the bout. This figure was alluded to during Tyson’s appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in September 2024. Interestingly, Tyson suggested that he’s not fighting Paul for financial gain but rather to test himself.

The fight purse is estimated to be around $80 million, with reports suggesting a 50-50 split between the two fighters. This means Tyson could potentially earn up to $40 million, double the initial $20 million estimate. These figures are not officially confirmed and could be subject to change.

Jake Paul said:

“I’m here to make 40 million dollars and knock out a legend. I don’t give a f**k about anything else. And he’s the one that wanted it to be a pro fight. So he’s gonna get his a** knocked out real, real, for real on a real record. You’re gonna see on BoxRec — Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson, Jake Paul KOs Mike Tyson. I’m not here to do sh** besides make a bag.”

Jimmy Kimmel said to Mike Tyson:

“And I also want to ask you about the money ’cause I know you’re making a lot of money. I don’t know how much, whatever, at least 20 million dollars or something like that. He’s making a lot of money on this thing.”

When I first moved to Austin, I had a smaller table that I was gonna set up, and I was like, maybe I’ll be a little more intimate with the, with the guests. And then I had Mike on one time, and the first time I had him on, Mike was not training at all, and he said he can’t work out at all because it ignites his ego, and he just smokes a lot of weed, and we had a great conversation, it was real fun.

“And then he came back on again to promote the, to promote the Roy Jones fight. And he was jacked his giant muscles in his forearms, and he looked like he was ready to go. You could see the element that made him Mike Tyson. His prime had been, reignited, whatever. It was, like, now I need a wider table. I got, I was nervous in the room with him.

Snoop Dogg on Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson

‘Iron’ Mike Tyson is a heavyweight boxing icon who collected world titles in the 1980s. He was feared for his striking power, knockout record, and controversy outside the ring. According to Miek Tyson, regular CBD usage has helped him heal mentally and physically. In an interview, Tyson explained:

“I’ve been fighting for over 20 years, and my body has a lot of wear and tear. I had two surgeries and I used marijuana to calm my nerves, and it would take the pain away … But before, they had me on those opiates, and those opiates had me all screwed up … I thought about how much good I could do by helping people with cannabis. It was a no brainer“

Roy Jones Jr. Reveals Jake Paul’s Big Challenge Against Mike Tyson: “I don’t fear for Mike

A notable rule change has Roy Jones Jr. firmly believing that Jake Paul could be in for some trouble in his rapidly approaching battle with the grizzled legend Mike Tyson.

A notable rule change has Roy Jones Jr. firmly believing that Jake Paul could be in for some trouble in his rapidly approaching battle with the grizzled legend Mike Tyson.

The fight will occur on November 15th at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. It will supposedly be live-streamed to Netflix, and anybody with a subscription can catch the action.

Despite the gigantic 31-year age gap between the fighters, the fight has also been sanctioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation to be an official professional heavyweight boxing match. However, there have been a few alterations to the rules of the fight, which has Roy Jones Jr. believing that Jake Paul could be in for a long night.

Roy Jones Jr. Speaks on the rule changes for the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight

The fight’s rule change will see Paul and Tyson fight in 14-ounce gloves instead of the standard 10-ounce mitts. The duo will also box over eight two-minute rounds as opposed to the traditional three-minute rounds.

Mike Tyson was said to want the shorter rounds, as he said it would cause “more action. Roy Jones Jr., who faced Tyson back in 2020, doesn’t think these rule changes will suit Jake Paul very well.

“That’s the real question: how much can Jake survive?” Jones Jr told talkSPORT Drive (H/T Talk Sport). “That’s the real question because Mike has what it takes to get anyone out of there.”

“And I’m going to tell you this, when I boxed him four years ago it was only two-minute rounds but surprisingly he didn’t decline, he stayed the same the whole fight. And that surprised me. If they are doing two-minute rounds then Mike is not going to tire out, I already know that because I watched him do that.”

Jones Jr. is pretty confident that Tyson has got this one in the bag but doesn’t foresee any knockouts. Instead, he’s calling for the old legend to win via points.

“Well, I like Mike, probably by decision,” he said. “But if he chooses to go out and take him out, I think he can. However, I feel like if he feels comfortable, he will just box and enjoy himself. Why get in shape to go one round?”

“I don’t fear for Mike and how old he is. Mike is still hard to hit and Mike still hits hard as hell.”

Boxing Medalist Imane Khelif Earns Vogue Arabia Cover

Vogue Arabia’s November 2024 issue, titled “Made in Arabia,” features Algerian boxer Imane Khelif on its cover. Khelif, who won a gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, faced controversy when her gender was questioned during her competition.

Imane Khelif on Vogue Arabia

The magazine cover story delves into Khelif’s background, revealing her humble beginnings in Tiaret, western Algeria. She shares her struggles, including selling bread on the roadside and collecting recyclables to fund her training. Ultimately, this would lead to her earning a gold medal in the Olympics.

Imane Khelif was the center of controversy during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games as her gender was brought into question. A story was misreported that she failed a gender test, which was false. No test occurred and the organization never disclosed what test they had done. People on social media were ready to attack a target. But, it was all false. As Chael Sonnen explained:

“Alleging that this Algerian boxer Imane Khelif had a test showing she had the XY chromosome, which would indicate biological maleness. But this is simply not true. The test never happened. The IBA never claimed such a test was done.

“The claim that the boxer submitted a genetic test that came back with an XY chromosome—indicating that she is biologically male—is simply not true. The IBA, which initiated this whole controversy, never said such a test was done. They only mentioned that they found something, which was then appealed.

“But if you care about the truth and the reality, I’ve just laid it out for you.“

Speaking to Vogue, she said:

“My country stood by me with great conviction, led by President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, who was the first to support me. All the authorities and the entire Algerian people were on my side, and I am very proud of that. These difficulties are part of every successful person’s journey, but no one has been able to shake my self-confidence – and that’s the secret to my success.”
