Mike Tyson makes massive $15million purchase with huge purse from record-breaking Jake Paul fight…
Whatever you think of Tyson vs Paul, with over 108 million global viewers and a peak of 65 million streams, there’s no question that the event was, financially speaking, extremely successful.
Whilst the fight purses have not been officially disclosed, reports suggest that Jake Paul made around $40 million to fight the former world champion back in November 2024.
Mike Tyson reportedly made around $20 million from that divisive matchup and is now splashing the cash with a new property in South Florida.
According to a report from the Palm Beach Post in Florida, Mike Tyson is making the most out of his extra revenue this year and has splashed a whopping $13 million on a new property.
As per a special warranty deed filed earlier this week, Tyson’s new 2.7-acre lot is one of only 78 properties located in the exclusive Tierra del Rey Estates area of Delray Beach and includes access to a private lake.
Tyson’s representative on the sale, Joseph Jonathan Schneider, told the outlet “This has been a successful transaction with all the parties demonstrating professionalism and collaboration.
“The Tyson family has been a valued client and friend for many years, and it’s been a pleasure working with them.”
Real Estate broker Matthew Maschler previously explained how Tyson was tempted into purchasing a property in the Tierra del Rey Estates (which translates into ‘Land of the Kings’) after his daughter started playing tennis.
“Basically, the appeal to him is his daughter plays tennis, and she plays in Delray, so he wants to be able to fly in, go see his daughter’s tennis match, go back to his plane and fly to wherever he came from.”
