In a development that has sent shockwaves through the boxing world, the highly anticipated showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua has unveiled a record-breaking prize purse. Set to be one of the biggest fights in recent history, this announcement has further heightened the excitement surrounding the event.
With both Fury and Joshua boasting impressive resumes and legions of devoted fans, the magnitude of this matchup cannot be overstated. The revelation of a prize purse of unprecedented proportions only adds to the anticipation, fueling speculation about the potential financial windfall for the fighters involved.
As negotiations continue and details emerge, the boxing community eagerly awaits further updates on what promises to be a historic and potentially lucrative encounter between two of the sport’s biggest stars. Stay tuned for more developments as this blockbuster event unfolds.
If it is true as Eddie Hearn revealed, the Joshua – Fury match will bring in 100 million pounds (equivalent to about 126.5 million dollars) for each boxer, not including other payments, such as bonuses and especially money from pay-per-view revenue.
Obviously, the above compensation – a total of $200 million – was more than enough to turn the Joshua – Fury match into the most expensive heavyweight boxing match in history. Remember, even the upcoming classic title unification match between Fury – Usyk only has a total compensation for the two boxers of about 116 million pounds, equivalent to 150 million dollars.
