Former rivals place heavy bet on Katie Taylor-Amanda Serrano

Back in 2024 when Jake Paul and Mike Tyson squared off, the card also featured an intriguing women’s boxing match. While Paul and Tyson garnered the headlines off Netflix, Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano stole the show.

Now, Taylor and Serrano are set to meet for a second time – and again, the bout will stream live on Netflix. This one, though, will be the main event of the evening from Madison Square Garden in New York City.

And both Paul and Tyson are intrigued.

Paul, who earned the win over Tyson that night, is betting Serrano to claim the WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO, IBO and The Ring light-welterweight titles this time around. Tyson, meanwhile, sees the champion retaining.

The two were filmed FaceTiming one another to place the bet, as Paul said, “Alright, if Katie wins, then you get $1 million. If Amanda wins, I get $1 million.”

Tyson, never one to shy away, replied, “I like that.” He added a little clause, stating Paul had to “take me out to dinner, too.” Paul replied, “I’ll take you out to dinner, on  date.”
