Paul-Tyson gate fetches non-Vegas record $18.1M revenue

Jake Paul

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson punched up a record-breaking gate at AT&T Stadium on Saturday with 72,300 fans in attendance leading to $18,117,072 in total revenue, a record for boxing and mixed martial events held outside of Las Vegas.

The co-main event with women’s title bout rematch featuring Katie Taylor defeating Amanda Serrano a second time in a debated outcome, Paul won a unanimous decision over the 58-year-old Tyson in a sanctioned, modified eight-round fight.

The gate at AT&T Stadium doubled the previous record from Canelo Alvarez-Billy Joe Saunders in 2021, which reported $9 million in revenue.

Streaming issues for at-home viewers taking in the historical matchup via Netflix made headlines in the hours that followed Paul’s hands being raised, but all parties connected to the event are also counting their wins in dollars.

“Paul vs. Tyson and Taylor vs. Serrano 2 rewrote the record books, solidifying Most Valuable Promotions as a trailblazer in combat sports,” Nakisa Bidarian, co-founder of Most Valuable Promotions, said in a statement Tuesday. “From setting the highest gate outside of Las Vegas in U.S. history for a combat sports event to becoming the most streamed sporting event in U.S. history, this event is a testament to the global impact of Jake Paul, Mike Tyson, Katie Taylor, Amanda Serrano, and the incredible athletes on this card.”

The fight became the most-bet boxing match for multiple sportsbooks, most of which also felt the thrill of victory from a large percentage of bets and handle backing Tyson over the 27-year-old Paul.
