After their much-hyped bout failed to deliver the fireworks fans had hoped for, legendary boxer Mike Tyson and social media star-turned-boxer Jake Paul could be headed for a lucrative rematch. Reports suggest that Saudi Arabia’s Turki Alalshikh, a prominent figure in boxing promotion, has made a jaw-dropping offer to Tyson: $700 million if he can secure a knockout within the first three minutes.

Their first encounter, which took place last month, saw Jake Paul claim victory, though the fight left audiences underwhelmed. Despite months of anticipation, the clash was more of a sparring session than an all-out war, with neither fighter showing the aggression fans had expected. While many were relieved to see Tyson, now 58, leave the ring unscathed, the lackluster finish left the boxing world wanting more.

Three weeks after that bout, Alalshikh has stepped in with an ambitious proposal aimed at reigniting interest in a rematch. Known for his transformative impact on boxing in Saudi Arabia, Alalshikh is reportedly willing to fund the blockbuster payday for Tyson under one condition: the former heavyweight champion must knock out Jake Paul in under three minutes to claim the staggering prize.Mike Tyson Reportedly Offered $700 Million for Rematch Against Jake Paul

The offer is bound to generate buzz in both boxing and entertainment circles, as it combines Tyson’s enduring legacy with Paul’s ability to draw massive audiences. However, questions remain about whether Tyson, who retired from professional boxing nearly two decades ago, would be willing to step back into the ring at this stage in his life—especially under such high-stakes conditions.

For Jake Paul, the prospect of facing Tyson again could offer a chance to cement his credibility as a boxer while delivering the kind of spectacle fans initially expected. Whether both sides will agree to the rematch remains uncertain, but the $700 million incentive is hard to ignore.

As discussions continue, boxing enthusiasts and casual fans alike are keeping a close eye on what could potentially be one of the most talked-about matches of the year
