Mike Tyson is set to earn a substantial payday in his upcoming fight against Jake Paul.

The bout, scheduled for July 20 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas and broadcast live on Netflix, has garnered significant attention since it was announced.

Tyson, at 58 years old, will face Paul, 31 years his junior, in what is expected to be a professional bout.

Speculation around Tyson’s earnings for the fight has been rampant, with estimates suggesting he could earn around $20 million (£15.7 million).

This figure reflects the significant draw of the event and the interest it has generated among fans.

“I mean, you know what I respect, Uncle Mike… But it obviously takes two to tango,” he said.

“I feel like there is probably a really good payday for Mike. He’s probably going to wind up making close to about 20 mil, and he’s about to turn 58 years old.”

While the $20 million estimate for Tyson’s upcoming fight is speculative, it would align with the significant purses he commanded during his prime.

Over his career, Tyson reportedly earned approximately $430 million (£337.5 million).

His highest payday was $35 million for his bout with Lennox Lewis, and he earned $30 million for fights against Frank Bruno and Evander Holyfield.

Despite his lucrative fights, Tyson faced financial challenges and filed for bankruptcy in 2003.

However, he has since rebuilt his wealth through acting roles and his cannabis business.

Despite his financial success, Tyson’s decision to fight Paul shows he’s still interested in securing a substantial payday.

Anthony Joshua, the well-known Nigerian boxer, has sparked relationship rumors with Kika Osunde, a prominent hair vendor and businesswoman.

The couple was seen cuddling up during what seemed to be a romantic getaway in the Dubai desert.

Kika Osunde is known for co-founding the upscale Lekki restaurant, Goodhair, and a popular hair brand.

She traveled to Saudi Arabia to support Anthony Joshua during his fight with Francis Ngannou.

Joshua, upon noticing her presence, promptly left the wrestling arena to greet her, expressing his delight at seeing her there.

The couple was later spotted riding a motorcycle together in the desert, holding each other tenderly in a video shot in Dubai.

While neither Anthony Joshua nor Kika Osunde has confirmed or denied the rumors, there are suggestions that they may be romantically involved.

This development follows Joshua’s impressive knockout win over Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia.

Anthony Joshua dominated Francis Ngannou in two explosive rounds, solidifying his position in the heavyweight world title race.

Despite Ngannou’s previous impressive performance against Tyson Fury, where he took the fight the distance and even dropped the WBC champion, he was unable to mount any significant offense against the 34-year-old boxing star.

Joshua said: “It is what it is.

“On the route to the championship you should always stay focused and i had to step away from the mission. I thought it was just a gimmick for the broadcasters.

“When I saw the fight with Tyson Fury I thought damn this guy can fight, I want a piece of that.

“I wanted to welcome him and this does not take anything away from him, he can come again.

“I am still learning and pushing, I don’t know if I am coming into my peak, if that was me down there you would be saying ‘Anthony Joshua should retire’.

“In five years I will be finished fighting and sitting down and all this will be a distant memory.

“I am going to go back and lock myself in my cage and they can let me out when they want me to fight. I just want to fight.”

Anthony Joshua displayed remarkable precision and control in his fight against Francis Ngannou.

Despite Ngannou’s resilience, Joshua’s final blow was nearly devastating. Before the fight began, Joshua took a moment to pray in his corner, showing his focus and determination.

Once the fight started, Joshua was on point with his jab, targeting Ngannou’s body and head. Ngannou, known as the “Predator,” tried to counter with his left hooks, a strategy he believed could exploit Joshua’s weaknesses.

However, Joshua’s right hand proved too much for Ngannou, knocking him down almost to the point of defeat.

Despite this, Ngannou showed incredible heart by getting back up and enduring the rest of the round.

In the second round, Joshua landed another powerful combination, but Ngannou bravely got up again. However, a final devastating blow from Joshua ended the fight, with the referee stopping it without a count.
