Ringside seats with a staggering price tag of $2million are now available for purchase as the much-anticipated boxing event headlined by heavyweight legend Mike Tyson and YouTube sensation Jake Paul draws near.

The duo, whose initial July bout was postponed, will now face off at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Friday, November 15. The colossal 80,000-seat venue, which is the home ground of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, is predicted to be packed to capacity when the two fighters go head-to-head over 12 rounds.

Tyson is stepping out of retirement to take on Paul, who initially gained fame online but has since transitioned into a professional boxing career.

On Friday, consulting firm Elevate unveiled designs of its luxurious ringside hospitality package. The ‘MVP Owner’s Experience’ package, priced for 10 tickets, offers seating for two individuals in a private suite just a few feet away from the thrilling action.

Additional benefits include an opportunity to meet Tyson and Paul prior to the fight, a chance to be present onstage during the weigh-in, autographed gloves from both fighters, a personal concierge service, and a security detail throughout the week leading up to the fight.

Ticket prices begin at a modest $37 on SeatGeek, the official online ticketing platform for the match, while three ringside seats are listed at a hefty $50,000 each. A slew of high-profile celebrities are expected to attend the event in two weeks, with both Tyson and Paul boasting massive fan bases.

Tyson, who turned 58 in June, is eager to challenge himself against the 27-year-old Paul. “This money from this fight is not gonna change my lifestyle or life one percentage, I will always be able to live this way; I could use a buck like everyone else, but this is not for financial reasons,” Tyson remarked, as reported by The Independent.

“I’m just doing it because I want to test myself. Regardless of me being how old I am, this guy only has 11 fights. If I can just fight a little bit, with my experience… if I can just fight 10 per cent of what I was, he can’t match that. That’s being sincere. I’m gonna beat him. I know what I can do, I’ve seen what he’s capable of doing, and I’m not intimidated or afraid of him.”

Paul, having suffered his sole loss to Tommy Fury in Saudi Arabia early last year, is determined to leave a mark. “You’re going to see on his record; Jake Paul KOs Mike Tyson,” Paul confidently declared at their September face-off.

“I’m not here to do —- except make a bag. Every time fighters sit across from me and it’s, ‘YouTuber this and Disney kid that’ and they end up on the canvas… this is going to be no different. I brought this deal to this old ass mother—— we signed the contract with Netflix and we brought him the deal. You’re welcome my son.”
