A UFC legend has leaked the amount of money Mike Tyson will earn for fighting Jake Paul.

Originally, the pair were meant to fight at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas on July 20.

However, it was confirmed in June that the fight had been postponed indefinitely.

Later that month, it was revealed that Tyson vs Paul will go ahead on November 15 and it will be streamed live on Netflix.

In a statement, Co-Founder of Most Valuable Promotions Nakisa Bidarian said: “Our team has worked diligently with all parties involved to reschedule this monumental fight to a date that ensures both Jake Paul and Mike Tyson are fully prepared, with equal training time, as well as allowing us to keep the event at AT&T stadium in the midst of the Cowboys season.

We look forward to seeing everyone on Friday, November 15 for a showdown that will be talked about for generations to come.”

Speaking earlier in the year, UFC star Henry Cejudo claimed that Tyson will receive $20 million for fighting Paul.

During an appearance on his podcast with Kamaru Usman, Cejudo said: “I mean, you know what I respect, Uncle Mike… But it obviously takes two to tango.

“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.”

Meanwhile, ex-UFC champion Daniel Cormier said that Paul is in a ‘no-win situation’ against Tyson.

“It might ruin you if he just beats on Mike Tyson. He’s in a no-win situation,” he explained.

“I don’t know that he thought this one through as much as he probably should have been, because if you just go out there and you just beat the sh*t outta Mike Tyson. Everybody’s gonna be really mad at you. I mean, really mad.”
