TYSON FURY has successfully defended his WBC heavyweight title in an epic bout with Deontay Wilder.
The Brit survived two knockdowns before knocking out the Bronze Bomber in round eleven.
What is Tyson Fury’s net worth?
Tyson Fury’s net worth following his second fight against Wilder was 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.
And this figure will have increased significantly following his second win over the man from Alabama.
How much did Fury earn from beating Wilder?
The purse for the Fury vs Wilder trilogy bout was reportedly split 60/40 in Fury’s favour.
The Gypsy King was expected to earn a guaranteed £22m plus 60 per cent of the pay per view revenue.
Wilder was set to earn a guaranteed £15m plus 40 per cent of the PPV take.
In their last fight, there was a reported purse of £3.67m, with both fighters ultimately taking home around £18.36m once PPV revenue was added.
How much could Fury earn from a fight with Anthony Joshua?
If Fury fights Joshua one day, there would be a huge pot of money for that fight to take place, but less so than the £150m that was at stake over the summer.
The fight got put off and Joshua lost his interim fight with Oleksandr Usyk, likely putting an all-British undisputed heavyweight clash to bed.
