The upcoming fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is set to draw a massive crowd at the 80,000-capacity Cowboys stadium on November 15. The 58-year-old former heavyweight champion and the YouTuber-turned-boxer will clash for an eight-round (two-minute each) bout. The matchup has been attracting all sorts of attention since its announcement. It even went through a round of postponement following Tyson’s mid-flight medical emergency. Concerns about the boxing great’s health persist.

However, the anticipation continues to build as fight night approaches. Fans are expected to flood the Texas venue, not only diehard boxing enthusiasts but also casual viewers. Additionally, millions worldwide would tune in on Netflix to witness the showdown. Tickets range widely in price—from $37 to $50,000 for premium ringside seats. Now the latest report hints at an even more luxurious option for high-profile fans looking for an exclusive experience.

A Reuters report has been gaining significant traction online. So reportedly, if you’re willing to shell out $2 million, then you will be a proud owner of an exclusive seating package. Called ‘MVP (Most Valuable Promotions) Owner’s Experience, it consists of ten tickets. The arrangement includes two seats in a ‘private suite’ close to the ring.

The remaining eight seats will be spread across the first two rows of the AT&T Stadium. The limited package seems to have received approval from the boxing regulatory authorities in Texas. If that’s not enough to impress you, wait for the specifics.

Ticket holders will relax in stylish, comfortable leather seats close to the action. Then, before the fight begins, they will get a chance to visit the dressing rooms of Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. Additionally, they may even join the fighters on stage during the final weigh-ins. Tyson and Paul’s autographed gloves, personal concierge, and personal security are other benefits included in the package.

So is this high-end offer coming directly from Mike Tyson or even Jake Paul? Not exactly. It’s being managed by a consulting firm. They struck a deal with Jake Paul’s MVP to provide their premium seating and other hospitality packages during the big fight.
