JOSHUA'S CAREER EARNINGS HIT $200M.(PHOTO).


 Joshua’s career earnings hit $200m

12th November 2024


Anthony Joshua has surpassed the $200m mark in career earnings, making him one of boxing’s highest earners, surpassing heavyweight rival Tyson Fury and rising star Gervonta Davis, The PUNCH reports.


The former two-time heavyweight champion earned $75m from fights in 2024 alone, placing him second only to Canelo Alvarez in yearly earnings. The Mexican champion matched Joshua’s fight purse but edged him in off-field earnings by $2m.


Fury, 36, collected $50m in 2024, taking his career earnings to $150m, significantly behind Joshua’s impressive haul.


Meanwhile, Davis, 30, has accumulated $50m since his professional debut, with his recent bouts against Ryan Garcia and Frank Martin contributing nearly $20m to his wealth. Garcia himself has emerged as a pay-per-view star, amassing over $40m in career earnings.


Joshua’s financial ascent began notably with his Saudi Arabia rematch against Andy Ruiz Jr., where he pocketed $65m. His subsequent battles with Oleksandr Usyk yielded over $40m for the first two encounters.


The Watford-born pugilist’s earnings were further boosted by his high-profile clash with Francis Ngannou last year, which added $50m to his account. Additional paydays include consecutive $12m purses for fights against Jermaine Franklin and Robert Helenius, plus similar earnings from six spectacular shows at Wembley and the Principality Stadium.


Currently nursing injuries from his recent loss to Daniel Dubois, Joshua, 35, is eyeing a potential clash with Fury. The two-time world champion is waiting for the outcome of Usyk vs. Fury 2 before making his next move.


With one fight remaining on his Riyadh Season contract, His Excellency Turki Alalshikh is expected to make a lucrative offer for the all-British showdown, should it materialise.


Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn recently confirmed the boxer will not return to action until at least May 2024, ruling out an immediate rematch with IBF world heavyweight champion Dubois.


“We got one last chapter in this career that we need to make sure we get 100 per cent spot on,” Hearn told Boxing News. “When he comes back in May or June or whenever that’s going to be, you have to be physically and mentally 100 per cent ready.”
