Kaitlyn is, without a doubt, one of the most influential and highly followed streamers in the world right now. She has garnered an unprecedented boost in her career following the viral success of her Hot Tub streams on Twitch. Thanks to the ongoing success she’s witnessing, Amouranth has been able to make a lot of money as well.

If one wants to have a comparison between the two celebrities, then Amouranth easily surpasses Mike Tyson on this front. According to Givemesport, her current net worth is estimated to be between $20-$25 million. That’s twice than what the former professional boxer is having right now. Per the website Parade, Mike Tyson’s net worth as of 2022 is $10 million.

Amouranth vs Mike Tyson: Net Worth in 2022

We now know that Amouranth is clearly ahead of the legendary sportsperson, with her net worth being around $25 million. Mike Tyson is nowhere near the Hot Tub streaming personality.

On the other hand, Mike Tyson, in the past, had huge wealth. But he used it in such a way that led to him being bankrupt at one point. Obviously, there was a major reason behind it.

Why did Mike Tyson lose his money?

Mike Tyson was among the highest-paid athletes during the peak of his career. Especially almost two decades ago, when the boxing legend had an unprecedented net worth. But he also had a habit of spending on a lavish lifestyle as a result of which he eventually became bankrupt. He had even filed for bankruptcy after falling into heavy debt.

To repay the millions he owed to others, he was forced to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2003. Per reports from Benjamin Law, he owed $38.4 million to the creditors. These also included the Internal Revenue Service and his ex-wife, Monica Turner.

Moreover, he had to sell his Connecticut Mansion as well for $9 million as a divorce settlement to Turner. It’s quite unfortunate to see the former professional boxer having a net worth of just $10 million as of now. It’s totally contradictory to what he could make in just a single day during the height of his career before he filed for bankruptcy.
