Jake Paul’s latest win over Mike Tyson had a viewership of 60 million, and a peak of 65 million. Not to forget, the fight broke the gate record in Texas, which previously belonged to Canelo Alvarez’s $9 million. Even before the fight, the 27-year-old Youtuber flaunted multiple luxury items, and after the victory over ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’, he wore another rare timepiece. His celebration continued, as his destination was Shaquille O’Neal’s largest bass music festival in Texas.

Even the other half of the ‘O’Neal Boys’, Myles O’Neal, was also present, and he shared some clips on his social media. In one of those clips, Jake Paul wore his Richard Mille RM 11-03 ‘Last White Edition’ Automatic Flyback Chronograph White Ceramic. Standing with him was Myles, also posing to show his wrist, however, he wasn’t wearing anything.

As for Paul’s timepiece, yes, it is rare. This watch is a limited edition of 33 pieces and currently costs $550,000 as per Wrist Aficionado. If one is not impressed, then let’s look at Jake Paul’s $7 million watch.

Jake Paul was dancing and headbanging alongside Myles and Shaquille O’Neal as the Lakers icon performed at the Panther Island Pavilion. Last year, the NBA legend sold out 15,000 tickets and this year too he would do the same. But not all hopes come true, as DJ Diesel had his hopes and money on Jake Paul to lose.

Despite a monetary loss, Shaquille O’Neal and Jake Paul continued to vibe

Going into the event, there was a simple question of whether the age of Mike Tyson would allow him to dominate the matchup. In the early goings, it did look like Jake Paul might have bitten more than he could chew. But the results after the 8 rounds left no doubts as the results were in favor of the young boxer.

With 80-72, 79-73, and 79-73, the judges scored unanimously, and ‘Iron Mike‘ suffered a loss. Which meant a loss for Shaquille O’Neal, “I’m placing one this weekend. Mike Tyson baby. All the way.” During an appearance on the Dan Patrick’s show, the Lakers legend also stated Tyson would “whoop some a–“. Even revealed the amount, “A lot… $1 million.”

But Shaquille O’Neal wasn’t bitter about his loss, as he performed during the Shaq’s Bass All-Stars. For Jake Paul, it was just sweet, since he already broke the gate revenue with reported figures of $18 million. So Paul flaunting a couple of timepieces isn’t a surprise.
