Who is Sydney Thomas? The ring girl from the fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul who has captivated social media

Despite the fact that all eyes at the AT&T Center in Texas were on the two boxers, Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, there was a ring girl who captivated much of the audience and, subsequently, social media. Sydney Thomas is one of the most searched names from the fight that took place last night and she was not even going to fight.

Who is Sydney Thomas, the ring girl for Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul?

It should be emphasized that the ring girls are models who participate in combat sports events, such as boxing, MMA (mixed martial arts) or kickboxing, whose main function is to appear between rounds of fights holding signs indicating the number of the next round. The ones in charge of doing so in the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight were:

• Sydney Thomas

• Lexi Williams

• Raphaela Milagres
• Virginia Sanhouse

• Delia Silvayn

  

Only five women were selected to carry out this work. It is worth noting that thousands of applications are submitted for the same and, even more so, when it has such media coverage, not only sporting, as this fight.

Even so, it was Sydney Thomas who stole the show. Perhaps if she had not been present in the passage, her fame would have been much less. When Mike Tyson punched Jake Paul in the face, she was one of the ring girls on stage. The image has been repeated so much that, finally, the attention has ended up being taken by the American and not the slap.

How much does each ring girl earn per event?

Some of the most prominent ring girls can earn around 100,000 to 500,000 euros a year. In the UFC, for example, they take home between 1,000 and 5,000 euros for each event and a bonus of 5,000 euros if it is a PPV. The most recognized today are Brittney Palmer and Carly Baker.
