Mike Tyson buys $13 million Florida mansion with 80-foot pool and bass pond

Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson purchased a $13 million (£11 million) mansion in Delray Beach, Florida, in 2025, following his high-profile fight against Jake Paul. Spanning 12,286 square feet, the lakefront estate features six bedrooms, nine bathrooms, an 80-foot swimming pool, a private bass pond with a waterfall and a gym. The 2.7-acre property also includes a private lake, a covered terrace and a four-car garage. Tyson reportedly used almost all his earnings from the November 2024 bout to purchase the mansion with his wife, Lakiha.

According to The Sun, Tyson and his wife, Lakiha, purchased the lakefront mansion in Delray Beach for $13 million (£11 million). The property covers 12,286 square feet and includes six bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The purchase followed Tyson's return to professional boxing in November 2024, when he faced YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. The bout took place at AT&T Stadium in Texas, with Paul defeating Tyson by unanimous decision after eight rounds. Tyson, who was 58 at the time, returned to the ring for his first professional fight since retiring in 2005.

The Florida property sits on a 2.7-acre plot and includes several recreational and leisure facilities. According to The Sun, the recently completed mansion features an 80-foot swimming pool and spa, alongside a covered terrace. One feature is a private bass pond with a waterfall. The estate also includes a private lake, adding to its collection of water features. These facilities are among the amenities highlighted in the report about Tyson's new residence.

The 12,286-square-foot mansion has six bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The property also includes a gym, providing a dedicated space for exercise and training. Other facilities include a four-car garage and a covered terrace. The combination of indoor and outdoor amenities forms part of the estate's layout, while its location on El Caballo Court places it within the Delray Beach area of Florida.

Tyson's mansion purchase came after his highly publicised fight against Jake Paul in November 2024. The former heavyweight champion returned to professional boxing nearly two decades after his retirement, facing Paul in an eight-round contest at AT&T Stadium in Texas. Although neither fighter's exact earnings were confirmed, reports suggested Tyson received $20 million (£16 million) for the bout. Tyson spent almost all of the reported purse on the Florida property. Tyson's spokesperson, Joseph Jonathan Schneider, commented on the property transaction, saying: "This has been a successful transaction with all the parties demonstrating professionalism and collaboration." He also said: "The Tyson family has been a valued client and friend for many years, and it's been a pleasure working with them."Disclaimer: This article is based on information publicly available, including reports by The Sun.
