A lot of the state regulated sporsbook apps will not be offering betting on Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson scheduled for July 20 due to it being an exhibition fight. BetOnline is one of the few that will be. They've previously seen significant betting action come in on exhibition fights as the competition was close to zero but the demand high.
BetOnline's odds for Paul vs. Tyson had Paul as the -135 favorite and Tyson at +105 (as of April 22). The official result must take place at ringside and the fight must take place before the conclusion of this year (2024). We do anticipate some prop bets for this fight as well, though BetOnline had yet to offer any as of April 22.
Tyson, 58, has not fought in nearly 20 years and he'll be taking on the much younger YouTuber who's proven to be pretty solid in the ring.
And guess who's backing Tyson?
None of than Ryan Garcia. He just stunned Devin Haney over the weekend. BetOnline just released odds for Garcia taking on three different fighters where he is the favorite in all but one - against Gervonta Davis.
"I love you, Mike. You look good. I'm going to your fight, I'll be there. I'm with you in everything, remember that, always in spirit. I got you. Love you, Mike."
Garcia is credited with introducing Paul to the world of boxing but now appears to regret that decision.
He said:"Okay enough, it's on. I'm going to have to do this! I'm going to end this JAKE PAUL BOXING THING. BRING IT ON JAKE IM DEAD F****** SERIOUS F*** YOU! HIT MY TEAM UP."
"I can't do this s***. I feel so f****** bad for introducing Jake Paul to boxing. I f***** up. I can't allow this to happen. I can't. I can't. He's disrespecting my sport. He's disrespecting everything. I just, I don't know — call my team, Jake. F*** you."
Paul didn't hold back in his response, saying: "You seem like you're losing your mind and acting thirsty and desperate. You're saying you're a billionaire when you've had one money fight. If you do want to fight, to me, that’s light work. You got no footwork and as long as you've been in the game, I'm a better boxer than you."
This fight will be streamed on Netflix and not come with a pay per view price.
