Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul fight highlights: Iron Mike loses by decision; here's who got how much money

Mike Tyson and Jake Paul's showdown was in the pipeline for a long time, and finally Netflix was able to make this fight a reality as it took place live on the streaming platform, from the AT&T stadium in Texas. A former child star and social media influencer, along with being a stellar fighter, Jake Paul managed to hold on to his temperament and defeated boxing legend Mike Tyson by a good margin. However, no one is blaming Mike Tyson for this loss as those who have watched him at this prime, know for a fact what would have happened if Jake Paul would have met him back then.

How much payment will Mike Tyson and Jake Paul receive from the boxing match?

The boxing showdown may have their share of winners and losers but Tyson will be taking away a truckload of cash for his stellar efforts, that too, at his age. A CBS News report has claimed that it is being estimated he'll make around $20 million for his fight with Jake Paul.

Tyson is one of those boxers who typically knocked out his opponents within a matter of 90 seconds, but today, he was not able to do so, and Paul broke him systematically, and slowly got the edge, even after trailing in the first two rounds. Paul, for his efforts, is set to earn $40 million, according to an estimate from DraftKings Network. This nearly a double of what Tyson will be making, but it must also be noted that the amount of endorsement and engagement that was seen, would not have become a reality if it was not for such a huge social media sensation like Jake Paul.
