Jake Paul is reportedly earning a hefty payday for his fight against Mike Tyson on Saturday, and he’s already putting some of those funds to good use.
Ahead his main event showdown against the former heavyweight boxing champion, Paul showed off his unique, diamond encrusted ring attire that he claimed is the “most expensive boxing outfit of all time.”

Paul previously revealed that he spent $1 million just on the ring attire he planned on wearing to the ring.
Of course that number pales in comparison to the massive amount of money he’s rumored to make for the fight against Tyson.
Outside of his ultra-expensive outfit, Paul previously sported diamond encrusted “ear covers” that he said he was wearing to protect himself from Tyson’s notoriously dangerous bite. He won’t be wearing them into the ring, however, which is where Tyson infamously bit off a piece of Evander Holyfield’s ear when they battled it out back in 1998.
That incident cost Tyson the fight and he ultimately had his boxing license in Nevada revoked along with a whopping $3 million fine. It’s unlikely Tyson is going to aim for the ears again.
Paul’s attire is also adorned with his ‘W’ logo — the men’s body care line he launched in June — alongside former UFC champion Sean O’Malley, who is also in attendance at the fight,
