MIKE TYSON warned Jake Paul he is coming for his $1MILLION winnings… and their dinner date.
Last November, Tyson controversially came out of retirement aged 58 to face YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul.

He lost on points over eight shorter two minute rounds as 100 MILLION 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 $1m (£750,000) up in a wager against Tyson – who was backing Taylor.
But Iron Mike insisted he must also be taken out for dinner by multimillionaire 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 worth 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.”
