It is understood the former Love Island star pocketed £3.7million for the showdown – while his opponent claims to have landed a staggering £25m.
However, before the fight, the pair shook hands on a double-or-nothing, winner-takes-all bet.
Fury Sr took to social media twice on Wednesday to demand Paul honours his word and pays up the rest of the money owed to his victorious opponent.
However, Paul said the Brit did not sign the agreement before the fight after handing the contract to the lawyers.

And now the Problem Child’s manager has called John out for his accused hypocrisy – insisting the winner’s dad privately backed out of the high-risk wager.
Nakisa Bidarian wrote: “Dear John – congratulations on the win.
“I’ve grown to highly respect you off camera.
“However, this statement is shocking given what you said to me at his Highnesses [sic] house on Friday evening and the correspondence from your / Tommy’s lawyer.

“Moreover our team has you on camera refusing to agree on the deal the night of the fight.”
Bidarian then appeared to hint at a possible rematch between Paul and Fury.
He continued: “With all that said – fair play to Tommy on a gear performance.
“You have raised a great young man. Hopefully he has the courage to do it again. Best, Nakisa.” More

He said: “I was sick for four weeks of this nine-week camp.
“Jet lagged for another week. What’s p***ing me off is that it had nothing to do with him.”
Despite being outfoxed by Fury, Paul was less than impressed by the Brit reality TV star.
The former Disney actor added: “He wasn’t that great at all. I think Anderson Silva was tougher than him.”
Paul confirmed before the fight that the contract contained a rematch clause.
And Tommy’s brother, WBC heavyweight champ Tyson, wants to see the bout run back.
He said: “Tommy will be headlining now forever. I’d like to see him fight a rematch with Jake Paul and fight Logan, his brother.”
