Sydney Thomas is embracing her newfound fame after the ring girl nearly stole the spotlight during the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight Friday night.
Taking to her Snapchat, Thomas, who had the internet buzzing during the bout, posted a video showing multiple news articles about her on Sunday.
“This is just so crazy to me,” Thomas, 20, wrote.
The ring girl, who’s currently a student at the University of Alabama, also shared The Post’s headline about her.
During a Q&A with fans, Thomas revealed she gained 500,000 followers across all of social media platforms, including Instagram and TikTok.
Thomas admitted she thought Tyson would defeat Paul in their highly anticipated bout at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which aired on Netflix.
Paul, 27, defeated Tyson, 58, by unanimous decision in an eight-round heavyweight fight.
That marked Thomas’ second time as a ring girl after her debut with Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions at an event in Puerto Rico last month.
“I was found through social media!” she said after one fan asked how she became a ring girl. “I did my first fight in Puerto Rico a month ago and Paul x Tyson was my second time in the ring!”
Thomas, who will turn 21 on Nov. 26, is studying management with a focus in entrepreneurship.
“I got to school at the University of Alabama, finishing a year early and doing all my classes online!!” she wrote.
Thomas explained her favorite part about being a ring girl at the Tyson-Paul fight.
“Being in the ring with Mike Tyson for sure,” she wrote. “It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity. He’s such a legend.”
Thomas added that she enjoys interacting with fans in the crowd at fights.
“People are always waving, blowing kisses, etc., it’s fun to engage with!!” she said.
The 5-foot-9 model went on to explain that she got her start in the industry through social media.
“This summer I walked in my first runway show during Miami Swim Week,” Thomas wrote, including a clip of her modeling a bikini on the runway. “I’ve worked with a few brands as well but I think social media is where I’ve found the greatest publicity to be. (Prior to Paul v Tyson).”
Netflix, which streamed the fight, announced that 60 million people tuned in to the bout, — and ticket sales surpassed $17.8 million.
