Jake Paul Makes Huge Claim Of Generating $300 Million In Pay-Per-View Revenue
Jake Paul
The crossover boxing market has been a source of huge money-making opportunities in recent years. As such, Jake Paul, the YouTube sensation turned boxer, has made a jaw-dropping claim. He claims that he has generated a whopping $300 million in pay-per-view revenue during his boxing career.
The controversial figure dropped this bombshell on the FULL SEND Podcast. Hosts and listeners alike were left stunned by the astronomical figure. Paul, known for his brash persona, talked about the money he had made in his career.
“I think having a billion [dollars]liquid… I would say I have made over $300 million in PPVs,” Paul said.
The 27-year-old has certainly come a long way since his Disney Channel days. His transition to boxing has been nothing short of remarkable. Paul’s claim, if true, puts him in elite company among combat sports stars. It’s a testament to his marketing savvy and polarizing personality.
His bouts against MMA stars like Nate Diaz and Tyron Woodley were major events. Each fight generated significant buzz and, apparently, serious cash. Fans anticipate that his next fight against the legend Mike Tyson will be a cash cow. Paul’s ability to market himself has been key to his success. He’s mastered the art of trash talk and social media promotion.
Jake Paul Believes Mike Tyson Bout Would Be Worth A Huge Amount
Paul has his sights set on a massive payday as the social media star believes a bout with Mike Tyson could rake in a whopping $300 million. Paul, never one to shy away from bold claims, dropped this eye-popping prediction. He’s been eyeing a showdown with the boxing legend for years. Now, it seems his dream might become reality.
“I joke with my friends about it, I’m like I’ll start eating Krispy Kreme doughnuts, move up to heavyweight and fight Mike Tyson. That would actually excite me and that’s a $200-300million event…So Mike, if you’re watching this let’s have some fun. New school vs old school and I think that’s something that the fans would want to see,” Paul said via BS w/ Jake Paul.
But here’s where things get interesting. There’s a 30-year age gap between the fighters. Tyson, at 57, is old enough to be Paul’s father. This age difference has sparked controversy and criticism. Netflix will broadcast the fight live. It’s a first for the streaming giant. Their 260 million subscribers can watch without any extra charge. Smart move or risky business? Only time will tell.
