Jake Paul will pay Mike Tyson $5 million if Tyson can make it through the fourth round of their scheduled eight-round heavyweight fight Nov. 15, the YouTuber-turned-boxer says in a video released Tuesday.
The catch: If Tyson fails, he must get a tattoo that reads, “I love Jake Paul.”
So said Paul, who in the video is seen shirtless and lying on a couch as he stacks what looks like money on his distended (and apparently fake) belly. He outlined the bet on the Tik Tok page of his gambling site, Betr.
“Mikey, Mikey, if you can last more than four rounds with me, I’ll give you an extra $5 million,’’ Paul says. “But, if you don’t, then you have to get a tattoo that says I love Jake Paul. Deal or no deal?’’

Multiple experts think the best chance at winning for Tyson, 58, is to score an early knockout against Paul, 27, rather than test his stamina against the younger fighter.
Tyson and his camp have not publicly responded to the offer.
The bout will be held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and livestreamed by Netflix.
