What is Tyson Fury’s net worth?
Tyson Fury’s net worth following the huge fight against Wilder is estimated at around £70m.
The Gypsy King also made a cool £12m from his single WWE appearance, when he was victorious over Braun Strowman.
That is on top of his previous bout against Wilder, in which Fury pocketed around £8m.
Yet, this figure will increase with the Brit still having two bout left on his bumper £80m five-fight deal with ESPN.
How much did Fury earn from beating Wilder?
According to ESPN, Fury’s purse from the Wilder rematch was £3.86m.
The fight made £13million in gate receipts at Las Vegas’s MGM Grand Garden Arena, while each boxer is expected to net £30m from pay-per-view buys.
How much could Fury earn from a fight with Anthony Joshua?
If Fury fights Joshua, there would be a pot of £77m guaranteed for both fighters.
And should Fury win, he would become undisputed champion, putting him in line for endorsement deals worth tens of millions.
One of the best offers for the Fury vs Joshua fight is likely to come from Saudi Arabia, where Joshua fought Andy Ruiz Jr and Fury took part in a WWE show.
There, the fight could be worth £150m – making it the fifth richest bout in the sport of boxing’s history.
