Crypto sportsbook Cloudbet offering odds on Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight cancellation due to age difference and other factors
Cloudbet, a leading cryptocurrency sportsbook and casino, has begun taking bets on whether the highly anticipated November 15 boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul will be canceled.
The betting platform is offering odds of 1.42 that the fight will be canceled, and 2.65 that it will proceed, implying a 70 percent chance of cancellation. The bout, generating significant hype partly due to the age difference between 58-year-old Tyson and 27-year-old Paul, is set for AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

"Our trading team has looked at everything that could affect such a high-profile fight," said a Cloudbet spokesperson. "The truth is this fight is as much about spectacle as sport. Given the delays, Tyson’s age, and all the buzz online, odds of cancelation are high. There's a good chance this fight never happens."
The odds reflect potential obstacles that could derail the bout, including Tyson's recent hospitalization for an ulcer flare-up, the risk of training injuries, and the possibility of either fighter withdrawing for personal or professional reasons. However, the significant financial incentives and legacy implications for both fighters could outweigh these factors.
Of course, many eagerly await the meeting of a former heavyweight champion and a social media star who has successfully transitioned to prizefighting. Despite cancellation risks, significant bets have favored Paul, especially from August through October. Conversely, Tyson has faced a decline in market confidence, particularly after his medical emergency on May 27, with only a slight interest recovery during August and September.
Tyson, who reigned as undisputed world heavyweight champion from 1987 to 1990, returned to the ring in 2020 for an exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr., which ended in a draw. Paul, meanwhile, has amassed a 10-1 record with 6 KOs since the start of his career.
As the fight approaches, Cloudbet plans to adjust its odds based on relevant news and developments. The platform invites bettors to review the Tyson-Paul prop bet and other related markets at www.cloudbet.com.
