Mike Tyson stated that his fee from the demonstration fight with Roy Jones Jr., which was hosted by Triller on pay-per-view, has yet to be paid in full. Tyson sat on the Full Send podcast with UFC President Dana White and talked about the fight, which generated 1.6 million stream buys in November 2020.

White asked Tyson if the Hall of Famer and former heavyweight champion received all of his money from a $10 million guaranteed fee.

“For the most part, yes, but there is still a part that is delayed, and I can’t even say anything about it. Yes, it's really complicated," Tyson replied, adding that he cut all ties with Triller last year.

The conversation between Tyson and White also touched on the rumored fight with Jake Paul that made headlines this month.

"I'm not interested in this," Tyson said. “If it was when it just started, and we both fought on the same map and both were active, yes, I would have done it, but everything just went wrong.”

White also told Tyson that he didn't want to see Iron Mike fight again.

“I know, I don’t think I will [fight] either, but who knows. Every 12-13 months you start missing something. And each time something different. Guys want to fight me for $100 million. I don't think I will ever do such things again. I wanted to do it for the first time [against Jones], just for fun, to have fun. Some have taken it to another level and made it financially profitable and the fun is gone,” added Mike Tyson.
