Jake Paul was victorious in Friday’s highly anticipated Netflix boxing match against Mike Tyson and his real estate portfolio seems to outshine the boxing legend’s holdings too.
The 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer won unanimously and bought a $16 million compound that dwarfs Tyson's Nevada residence.

Paul's recently acquired estate in Dorado, Puerto Rico, shows the social media star's success outside the ring. The eight-bedroom, eight-bathroom compound underwent $2.1 million in renovations after its 2023 purchase.
In a recent YouTube tour titled “My new $20,000,000 house tour,” Paul highlighted his changes, including a redesigned entrance for improved energy flow.
According to Realtor.com, the property includes several distinctive amenities, such as a 40-person hot tub and dedicated office space for Paul’s content production team. His garage also received a custom makeover to accommodate his growing car collection.
By comparison, Tyson's real estate footprint appears modest.
The former heavyweight champion's current residence, a $2.5 million mansion in Henderson, Nevada, has appreciated to an estimated $4.7 million, according to Realtor.com. The 8,000-square-foot home, where he lives with his wife, Lakiha Spicer and their children, has six bedrooms and six bathrooms.

According to the report, Tyson's real estate history includes a previous 19,500-square-foot estate in Southington, Ohio, which he sold for $1.3 million during financial difficulties in the late 1990s.
The 58-acre property's subsequent owner never occupied it, serving time in prison for money laundering.
The record-breaking boxing match, which earned Paul roughly $40 million and Tyson $20 million, further widens the wealth gap between the two fighters. According to CBS News, Paul said he wanted to fight again after the victory, targeting a championship title within two years. "I truly believe in my skills, my ability and my power," he said, setting his sights on the cruiserweight division.
