Millions of people worldwide watched the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight because of the enormous amount of hype surrounding it. 60 million households worldwide watched the bout between the former heavyweight champion and the YouTuber-turned-boxer, according to Netflix. It was as easy as having a Netflix account to watch, unlike most sporting events. However, some fans purchased tickets to attend the fight on Friday at AT&T Stadium in Texas because they wanted to see it up close.
People in the stadium had the best view, especially those who paid for VIP seats, even though many people were disappointed by the fight because Paul won by unanimous decision.
A video that demonstrates how close these $2 million seats get you to the action has started making the rounds on social media. Fans, however, are shocked by how one fan decided to watch this fight even though they paid for the seats. Instead of focusing on the action directly in front of him, a resident of the exclusive ringside booth was seen watching the boxing on a television screen.
Yes, he was seen watching the swings and misses on screen while he was literally only a few feet away from the blows. "$2m and the dudes still watching the screen, that's absolutely wild!" someone wrote in a comment on Twitter.
"More money than sense, that's why," another person added.

One user jokingly said: “Everybody in the first row at a boxing match needs to be arrested. We'll figure out the charges soon enough.”

There are additional benefits included with the $2 million tickets, which should help offset the cost. These benefits included an open bar and gourmet all-inclusive food menu, the opportunity to take pictures in the ring following the fight, and the chance to see both fighters backstage before the battle. Along with a personal security escort and access to numerous events during fight week, it also included some mementoes, such as a signed glove from each competitor.

In addition to this, the two seats in the private ringside booth package also included a further eight seats across the first two rows of the venue.

Now, would you buy this package to watch Tyson and Paul square off if you had an extra $2 million lying around?
