00:00Jake Paul beat Mike Tyson by unanimous decision in their highly anticipated fight, and each
00:04boxer likely walked away with tens of millions of dollars.
00:08But there may have been a bigger pay gap between the two than you'd think.
00:14Paul was already making millions of dollars as a YouTuber before he pivoted to boxing,
00:19which now accounts for most of his earnings.
00:21According to Forbes, the 27-year-old was one of the highest paid athletes in 2022 when
00:26he made an estimated $45 million.
00:28Meanwhile, neither Tyson nor fight promoters have disclosed what his payday would be, though
00:33some industry experts have put in around $20 million.
00:36The sold-out event was also lucrative in itself, bringing in $17.8 million in ticket revenue.
