Jake Paul issues $5million challenge to Mike Tyson ahead of much-anticipated Netflix showdown
Jake Paul has offered Mike Tyson an extra five million dollars if he can survive four rounds of their money-losing fight next month.
But if ‘Iron Mike’ fails, the former heavyweight champion should get a tattoo declaring his love for the YouTuber-turned-boxer.
Paul and Tyson and will face off at AT&T Stadium – home of the Dallas Cowboys – in a rescheduled fight on November 15.
Tyson, 58, will be more than 30 years older than his opponent Paul, 27, when he returns to the ring for a first sanctioned fight since 2005.
The fight will be on Netflix and will make eye-watering sums, but now Paul has added another $5 million to the pot.

“Mikey Mikey, if you last more than four rounds with me, I’ll give you an extra five million dollars,” the YouTuber said.
“But if you don’t, then you should get a tattoo that says, ‘I love Jake Paul.'”
It wouldn’t be the first time Tyson has made headlines for ink on his body. The former world heavyweight champion has a Maori-style tattoo on his face.
The fight was originally scheduled to take place on July 20, but had to be postponed after Tyson suffered a medical panic.
The 57-year-old became nauseous and dizzy during a recent flight, prompting airline staff to ask passengers if there was a doctor on board.
Paramedics later boarded the plane to treat Tyson after it landed in Los Angeles.
