Mike Tyson has reportedly splashed out nearly £11million on a stunning new mansion following his defeat to Jake Paul back in November.
Iron Mike lost the showdown at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, with Paul continuing his impressive start to his boxing career in the process.
While the clash didn’t really live up to expectations, both men were paid well for their efforts.
Paul is reported to have taken home around £33m, with Tyson pocketing roughly £16m from the night’s actions.

Now, two months on, the Palm Beach Post has claimed that Tyson has forked out a massive £11m on a new mansion for himself.
A special warranty deed filed earlier this week shows that the boxing legend now owns a huge 2.7-acre lot that is one of only 78 properties located in the Tierra del Rey Estates.
Tyson’s representative on the sale, Joseph Jonathan Schneider, is reported as saying: “This has been a successful transaction with all the parties demonstrating professionalism and collaboration.
“The Tyson family has been a valued client and friend for many years, and it’s been a pleasure working with them.”
Tyson, as part of his purchase, also has access to a private lake.
While he was disappointed by his failure to beat Paul in November, the 58-year-old still emerged with plenty of credit in the bank.
Tyson managed to last the distance, despite his age, with the veteran avoiding being knocked out.
After the clash he immediately called out Logan Paul, Jake’s brother, who responded by saying: “I’d kill you Mike.”
Yet Tyson’s time in boxing appears to be over, if a message on social media posted in the aftermath is anything to go by.
“This is one of those situations when you lost but still won. I’m grateful for last night,” he said after his defeat.
“No regrets to get in ring one last time. I almost died in June. Had eight blood transfusions.
“Lost half my blood and 25lbs in hospital and had to fight to get healthy to fight so I won.

“To have my children see me stand toe to toe and finish 8 rounds with a talented fighter half my age in front of a packed Dallas Cowboy stadium is an experience that no man has the right to ask for. Thank you.”
In a interview just weeks on from the fight, Tyson then revealed that he’d ‘blacked out’ during the contest.
“I don’t remember the fight that much,” admitted the former heavyweight champion.
“I kind of blanked out a little.

“I remember coming back from the first round and Jake is doing some kind of [bow] …I don’t know what he was doing.
“And that’s the last thing I remember.”
