Mike Tyson has proven to be as good at punching as he is at doing business, because despite the relapses and moments of economic crisis he has had throughout his career, he currently enjoys enviable financial health, which is why he has decided to participate in a series on finance to share what he has learned in this area after several decades of experience.
At 58 years of age, Tyson continues to make money at an impressive rate, as just recently, with the exhibition fight against influencer and boxer Jake Paul, he is said to have pocketed nearly $20 million, an impressive figure in itself, but even more so when you consider his age and the time he had been inactive. That is why his arrival in the financial media could be of great interest to the public.
Mike Tyson to participate in Going Public
Tyson confirmed that he will be part of the final episode of the third season of Going Public, an interactive investment series produced by Crush Capital Inc. The event will be streamed live on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, at 2:00 pm, PT, from Las Vegas, via the X platform, Tyson himself confirmed on his official account.
His involvement is expected to attract a global audience, considering that the first four episodes of the series have accumulated more than 105 million views on X, ranking among the most viewed content on the platform.
The episode will feature investment opportunities in three companies from diverse sectors: consumer products, golf-related real estate and technology. One of the innovations will be the interactive Click-to-Invest feature, which will allow viewers to invest in real time with just a few clicks, quickly and easily.
Todd Goldberg, co-creator and executive producer of the series, said: “Mike Tyson is a global phenomenon, and his presence in the season finale takes this event to another level. We’re making history on X and potentially empowering millions of people to invest in real time during this iconic moment.”
What did Mike Tyson study?
Although Tyson does not have a financial background, his own financial story is interesting in itself, as after declaring bankruptcy in 2003, he managed to recover thanks to media appearances, exhibition fights and ventures such as his podcast Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, his cannabis brand, Tyson 2.0 and even his participation as an actor in some scenes of the movie Hang Over. Currently, his wealth is estimated at around $30 million, which shows his great willingness to diversify income.
However, some of the boxer’s detractors have also questioned his economic skills, as despite having earned more than $400 million in his career, his excesses and neglect led him to bankruptcy some time later. Nevertheless, it will be interesting to learn a little about the economic vision of such an influential personality in the world of sports as the American boxer.
