TYSON FURY and Deontay Wilder will both earn a minimum of £18million for their Las Vegas trilogy fight.
The pair, 33 and 35 respectively, will renew their rivalry in Sin City in the early hours of Sunday morning.
And both men will make a pretty penny for their T-Mobile Arena tussle.
It’s understood Fury and Wilder’s disclosed purses – which will be released by the Nevada Athletic Commission later this week – will be £4.4million ($6m) and £2.9m ($4m) respectively.
But the duo are already contractually guaranteed a minimum of £18m for the third showdown.
Fury, however, is set to take home the lion’s share of the pot due to the 60/40 split in place.
Both men’s purses, however, will be topped up by their respective cuts of the pay-per-view buys.
It’s understood the second of instalment of Fury vs Wilder – which was priced at £59 ($79.99) in the States – generated between 800,000 and 825,000 pay-per-view buys in North America.
BETTING SPECIAL: GET 30/1 ON FURY OR 50/1 ON WILDER FOR HEAVYWEIGHT BOXING CLASH
Fury, 33, put a beating on the American in their rematch last February, battering him from pillar to post before recording a seventh-round stoppage.
And The Gypsy King is planning on turning in an even better performance in their second desert dust-up.
Speaking after his grand arrival outside of the T-Mobile Arena on Tuesday night, Fury vowed: “I am going to knock him out, quick time.
“I think he’s a real piece of s**t, a real piece of garbage.
“For that I might do it slow, I might take my beating him up and make him quit. I might force him to say, ‘No mas.'”
The Bronze Bomber is determined to get back in the win column in devastating fashion, saying: “I see me beating him up and then knocking him out.
“There were a lot of things I visualised in the first fight and the second but I didn’t execute the gameplan.
“This is a different feeling, all the way round, just the surroundings, the atmosphere and the energy as a whole.
“I’m looking forward to putting on a great performance.”
