Mike Tyson spends fight earnings on a mansion with a private waterfall
Mike Tyson, who recently stepped back into the ring after nearly 20 years for a fight with Jake Paul, has reportedly spent most of his earnings from the bout on a new luxury home, according to The Sun.
While the exact figures of the fighters’ payouts remain undisclosed, rumors suggest Tyson earned $20 million for the event. Now, The Real Deal reports that "Iron Mike" has invested nearly the entire amount in a $13 million mansion.
The lavish property boasts six bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a gym, a four-car garage, a spa, and a swimming pool. The estate also features a covered terrace, a private lake, a pond, and even a waterfall.
Tyson, now 58, lost the eight-round bout against 27-year-old Jake Paul by unanimous decision. Despite the outcome, the fight attracted a massive audience. Netflix, which streamed the event, revealed that at least 60 million viewers tuned in.
