Jake Paul will wear expensive and unique jewelry ahead of his highly anticipated fight with legendary boxer Mike Tyson on Friday.

According to TMZ Sports, the YouTuber-turned-boxer purchased a $7 million Jacob and Co. watch and diamond earrings that cost $100,000 each from VOBARA, according to TMZ Sports.

The earmuffs appear to be a pre-emptive dig at Tyson, who bit Evander Holyfield's ear twice during their 1997 championship fight, causing him to be banned from the bout.

Paul spoke about the earmuffs at a press conference on Wednesday:

Along with the expensive accessories, Paul teased his $1 million outfit for Tuesday's fight.

“This outfit I made for the fight is the most expensive fight outfit in the history of boxing,” he said said. “It costs $1 million. So it costs a pretty penny and is very shiny. These are the hints I will give. But for the strike I'll be driving to the ring in a specific vehicle, which will be pretty cool.” . But you'll have to wait and see the rest. The song somehow has something to do with Mike Tyson's career and a film he made.

Paul obviously spares no expense before the fight, but expensive accessories are of no use to him once he's in the ring. A win over Tyson could be career-defining for Paul, who has a 10-1 record and is looking to extend that on Friday.

Tyson, on the other hand, has not been in the ring professionally since 2005; his last exhibition fight took place in 2020. The 58-year-old wants to prove he still has it by beating the much younger Paul.
