Jake Paul has finally revealed how much he made from his fight with Mike Tyson.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer fought one of the sport’s greatest legends last November.
60 million people watched on Netflix as Jake Paul outpointed Mike Tyson over eight rounds.
Soon after, ‘Iron Mike’ dropped $13 million on a new mansion after reportedly making $20 million to fight professionally for the first time since 2005.
Jake Paul spent Mike Tyson payday on $39M ranch
Six months on, Tyson is seemingly content in retirement after making one final bag.
In contrast, Paul is gearing up to face former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on June 28.
A win could potentially set the former Disney star up for more money-spinning fights against the likes of Anthony Joshua and Gervonta Davis, who are on a six-man hit list of opponents to face after overcoming Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Pre-fight, Paul has opened up about his Tyson payday and revealed exactly what he spent it on.
“It was like low 30s. Low 30 million,” he said when asked how much he got paid to fight Tyson on The Iced Coffee Hour podcast.
“I haven’t announced it yet, but I bought a ranch. A pretty expensive ranch.
“It wasn’t like right away after the Tyson fight, but I’ve been wanting to buy a ranch for the past 15 years.
“It’s kind of been my dream and why I work so hard. I think it’s just I love everything to do with it, hunting, jet skiing, ATVs, fishing, horses, cows, and all that stuff.
“I grew up going to a cabin a lot with my dad, and so I’ve always just wanted to go back to that. I’ve been working towards buying a ranch for a really long time.
“It cost $39 million… It’s massive. It’s a little bit bigger than I wanted, but when I got there, I was like, ‘I have to buy this’.
Jake Paul (almost) rules out Logan Paul fight
A fight with his big brother, Logan Paul, might make the 11-1 boxer more money than anything.
However, he insists that their parents’ objection to the matchup means it will probably never happen.
“Man, I don’t think so. I really don’t think we would fight,” Jake added when asked about a brother vs brother fight with Logan.
“The only reason we maybe would is just because we do everything that no one else does.
“No other boxer brothers in history have fought. The Klitschkos, the Charlos, the list goes on and on.
“We could be the first idiots to just say, ‘F— it’.
“[Our parents], they’ve always said no. They’ve always said, ‘If you do it, we are gonna disown you’”
