Mike Tyson calls out Jake Paul over $1.5m promise after Katie Taylor beats Amanda Serrano again
He lost on points over eight shorter two minute rounds as 100 million people tuned in to watch on Netflix.
On the undercard, over 50m watched Katie Taylor's rematch win over Amanda Serrano which came two years after her initial victory.
Paul – who promotes Serrano – put $1.5m up in a wager against Tyson – who was backing Taylor, according to The Sun.
But Iron Mike insisted he must also be taken out for dinner by multi-millionaire Paul if he won.
And his bet paid off after Taylor closed out her trilogy series with a hat-trick of wins over her great rival Serrano.
Tyson, now 59, immediately posted online: 'Congrats to @KatieTaylor and @Serranosisters on the trilogy fight on Netflix.
'@jakepaul see you at dinner to collect my million!'
Taylor took a majority-decision and said: 'I just want to thank Amanda Serrano as well, what an amazing fighter, we've made history here.
'I thought I boxed very smart, very well. She wasn't catching me with much. 'It was obviously very, very close. Just thank God my hand was raised. I planned to come in here and be disciplined and smart.
'I executed the game plan very well. Total respect for Amanda, what a warrior. I love you all, I love my country. Thank you so much.'
Serrano, 36, said: 'We tried something different, it was all about working smarter, not harder.
'I tried to keep my distance because apparently it didn't work the first two fights. So we tried to stick with the long punches and it just wasn't enough.
'I don't know, I have to go back and watch it. My team told me they think I won, I'm going to believe what they tell me.
'I was really trying to apply what they were telling me. I really want to support every single one of you for coming out and supporting me and women's boxing.
'What an amazing night for all of us women. I'm crying at the support, thanks to all of you.
'Thank you Jake Paul, you've changed my life. Thank you Netflix for showcasing us warriors.
'Thank you Katie Taylor for an incredible 30 rounds, it's been a true honour.'

Gina Rodriguez pregnant
Gina Rodriguez is pregnant. The 40-year-old actress - who already has son Charlie, two, with husband Joe LoCicero - walked the red carpet for Netflix's Katie Taylor Vs. Amanda Serrano fight at New York's Madison Square Garden on Friday (11.07.25) night in a close-fitting black floral dress that showed off her bump. Gina and Joe, 38, embraced as they posed for photos together, with the Jane the Virgin star cradled her stomach proudly. And on Sunday (13.07.25), Gina revealed she is expecting a baby girl. She shared a photo on Instagram, in which she wore loose grey trousers and a lemon-print short top, and wrote: "Baby girl coming thru!!! We are so excited for you lil mama.(sic)" The Someone Great actress previously admitted she was "afraid" to have a second child because she would feel guilty at taking attention away from Charlie. Asked about having another baby, she told People magazine: "It's gonna happen anyways, so I'm not trying to force it sooner than it needs to. "I'm afraid to have a second because of how much I love this guy. I already feel guilty about not being available to him at all times." When Charlie turned one last year, Gina and Joe went all out and threw a "rager" to mark the occasion. The actress said on Jimmy Kimmel Live, she said: "We had a rager. It was basically his first wedding. It felt right, on the worst day of the entire [week], but that didn't stop us. "It was indoors and half outdoors. Everything I planned was outside and so about five days prior I was like, 'I'm getting tents. Nobody's going to stop me,' and we had tents and it was great." Gina even had "Charlie merch" produced, badges made from her "favourite pictures of [her] little man". Handing one to the talk show host, she laughed: "I went a bit far. "We expect you to wear it nightly, but it's not a big deal." The Players star has been wowed by her husband's commitment to fatherhood. She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "It means absolutely everything. "I'm able to do the things that I love and be with my son 24/7 because he has him on set. Also, to see your husband with his boy and just be there for every single milestone and to take away that much desire that he may have outside of everything, I owe it all to my husband."

Meghan and Kate: Feud that tore the ‘Fab Four' apart
Tensions between Princess Kate and Meghan Markle were apparent from their very first meeting. But as their husbands clashed, the inevitable rift deepened into a full-blown feud. A palace insider has recounted stories of the unravelling of the relationship between the so-called 'Fab Four', which began with statements made in the press by Meghan about Princess Kate's behaviour behind closed doors, and her lack of familiarity on social occasions between the couples. Royal biographer Tina Brown claims the media comparisons between the two women after Prince Harry introduced Meghan to Prince William and Princess Kate became a sticking point for the two women. 'Now that Meghan was a feminist hero, tensions with the more senior royal beauty, the (former) Duchess of Cambridge, offered an irresistible story to the tabloids, who always love to stoke a rivalry between women,' Ms Brown wrote in the Palace Papers.. The initial meeting was reported in the press to have gone well; however, in the Sussexes' Netflix documentary series, Meghan recalled that she felt uncomfortable about the level of formality that remained between the two. 'Even when Will and Kate came over and I was meeting her for the first time, I remember I was in ripped jeans, I was barefoot. Like I was a hugger, I have always been a hugger. I didn't realise that is really jarring for a lot of Brits,' Meghan said. 'I started to understand that the formality on the outside carried through on the inside, that there is a forward-facing way of being and then you close the door and think, 'okay, we can relax now'. 'But that formality carries over on both sides, and that was surprising to me.' Ms Brown said Meghan became concerned that she had an immediate personality clash with Princess Kate and that she found her to be 'cool' towards Prince Harry's partner. 'Meghan later said she found Kate to be cool of temperament, but that's likely because Meghan is a 'gusher', who hugged even the guards outside Kensington Palace,' Ms Brown said via reports in the Daily Mail. 'Kate is not a woman given to spontaneous rapport. She'd avoided recruiting new girlfriends to her inner circle/slumber party list since Marlborough and St Andrew's. 'Preoccupied with two young children and public duty, Kate had no serious reason to see the latest and most glamorous of Harry's string of girlfriends as a potential threat'. Just as in the days when Princess Diana's new updo upstaged the Queen at the opening of Parliament, the increasing media comparisons of Meghan and Kate - invariably casting Kate as dull and dutiful - began to inject tension. Soon after Prince Harry and Meghan announced their engagement in 2017, the former actress spoke glowingly about her relationship with Princess Kate and her efforts to welcome her into the family. 'Catherine has been absolutely amazing, as has William as well, you know, fantastic support,' Meghan said. But as the wedding day approached, the pair were to clash over royal protocol, and the length of the bridesmaid dresses to be worn on the big day. Reports filtered out that the two had a heated exchange, and Meghan made Kate cry during the argument over the outfits in 2018. In his book, Revenge, Tom Bower claimed unnamed sources told him Princess Kate and Meghan disagreed over the length of Princess Charlotte's hemline and the fit of her dress. The Duchess of Sussex played down the disagreement during her tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey, saying 'she (Kate) was upset about something, but she owned it, and she apologised. And she brought me flowers'.
