Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fan spotted committing 'wild' act after paying $2,000,000 for VIP ticket

One punter was lucky enough to have a $2m seat at the Jake Paul against Mike Tyson fight, but fans on social were stunned by their ‘wild’ act at ringside.

Tyson, 58, could not roll back the years as Paul, 27, eased to a convincing unanimous decision points victory with the judges scoring the contest 80-72,79-71 and 79-71.

Although the bout will go down as a loss on 'Iron Mike’s' record, he claimed that he still felt that even getting in the ring was a win after suffering from health problems in the months leading up to the fight.

The eyes of the sporting world were cast towards the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Friday, 15 November, with streaming platform Netflix reporting that 60m households tuned in for the historic event.

Although the platform broadcasting the event was a world first, some fans arguably had the best seat in the house - but it did set them back $2m.

According to the ticket’s description, this included two apron suite seats, eight ringside seats, a personal green room, an onstage spot at the weigh-in, locker room pictures with the fighters, personal car services and a two-night stay in the luxury Loews Hotel Suite with four rooms available.

A fan sitting in the exclusive ringside booth could hardly be any closer to the action, but people on social media were stunned by what he was doing.

As Paul and Tyson exchanged blows just feet away from him, the lucky fan still watched the action unfold on a TV screen in front of him.

X users piled in with their opinions.

One said: “$2 million for a seat, and they still stare at their phones.”

A second added: “$2m and the dudes still watching the screen, that's absolutely wild!”

With a third saying: “Everybody in the first row at a boxing match needs to be arrested. We'll figure out the charges soon enough.”

Of course, it is debatable whether a ticket to any event is worth $2m, but an American law firm gave their thoughts on why they purchased the coveted seats.

The tickets were purchased by Los Angeles-based law firm TorkLaw.

Korosh Torkzadeg, from the firm, told USA Today: "Life and sport often reflect each other in their unpredictability.

“At TorkLaw, as we spend our days fighting for our clients both inside and outside the courtroom, we see in boxing the same determination required to face life’s toughest battles.”

"Our involvement in this event is more than just support for sport — it’s a celebration of the human spirit and the strength it takes to keep fighting, no matter the odds."

As ever, high-profile fight nights come with glitz, glamour and drama, with several stars turning out to catch a glimpse of the action.

And despite reportedly pocketing a tidy $40m, Paul intends to put on another arguably even bigger event as he called out UFC star Conor McGregor in the hours that followed the fight, to which the Irishman could not help but reply.
