Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk are both guaranteed a huge amount of money, commensurate with the stature of the confrontation they are preparing for on May 19.
Both possessing an undefeated record and defeating the biggest names in British and American Boxing, there is no reason for world boxing fans to miss the classic match between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.

Tyson Fury will bring the WBC heavyweight belt he won from Deontay Wilder in 2020, while Oleksandr Usyk also bet on the three WBA, IBF and WBO titles he gained when overcoming Anthony Joshua to this weekend’s match. The winner will follow Lennox Lewis to become the absolute champion in the heavyweight division after 25 years of waiting.

According to sources, the profit sharing ratio of this match is allocated Tyson Fury 70% – 30% Oleksandr Usyk. In particular, a report from British media said Fury could pocket about 150 million USD

As for Oleksandr Usyk, the 30% profit rate will help the Ukrainian 2012 Olympic gold medalist earn about 65 million USD. This number is lower than what he received in the Anthony Joshua rematch in 2022

Although the number is not completely accurate, manager Bob Arum previously said, “If you told Tyson Fury he would make $100 million, he would be very disappointed. Because he deserves much more.” With that amount of money, the number is much larger than 100 million.” It can be seen that the figure of 150 million USD is well-founded.

Back in 2021 when Tyson Fury clashed with Deontay Wilder for the third time in the ring, the total income of both boxers only reached 50 million USD (Fury 30 – Wilder 20). That shows how big the bosses’ expectations are for this weekend’s confrontation.

The amount of money that the two boxers are guaranteed partly comes from the organizational capacity of super president Turki Alalshikh – General Director of the Arab Entertainment Authority (GEA). This is the unit that operates the Riyadh Season project with a series of classic sports events. Among them, Tyson Fury participated in Riyadh Season with a match with Francis Ngannou last October.

After a long wait when the parties could not reach a final conclusion, Turki Alalshikh’s participation forced Fury and Usyk’s representatives to sit down at the negotiating table, facing the huge amount of money being offered. . Obviously, the numbers mentioned above are an offer that is difficult to refuse.
