How much Tyson is getting paid?

This makes the stakes rather high indeed. But, I am still not convinced that Jake has paid Mike to throw the fight. I watch Boxing and enjoy the Sport. I believe I will be able to tell if it's 'fixed' or not once the Bell Rings...

How do the stakes go up? Tyson's future value as a boxer could go down? Jake Paul seems to fight anyone he can line up to make money, a loss to Tyson, regardless of what it is called won't change anything.

If I were either of them and was told it being a "sanctioned bout" would bring in more money (no matter what it really is) I would go for it in a second.
