Jake Paul vs  Mike Tyson was a huge fight that even the most sporadic MMA fans might know of. After a lot of back and forth, along with the MMA veterans questioning the age gap between the fighters, the bout took place on November 15, 2024, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and streamed live only on Netflix. Tyson, even at 58, gave ‘The Problem Child’ a run for his money; after all, he is considered one of the greatest in boxing history. However, Paul won via unanimous decision as the judges scored the match in favor of Paul.

Nonetheless, the payment was pretty huge for both of them asIronMike Tyson received $20 million and Paul received a whopping $40 million for the fight. Their ages and fortunes might not be the same, but when it comes to spending, it? The duo is pretty similar.

Tyson decided to spend his fortune on a mega mansion worth $13 million in Florida, as well as a plot of land nearby at a local airstrip. As per Marca.com, the property is a 12,286-square-foot estate near the ocean with six bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. It is in the only private community of Tierra del Ray Estates.
