Anthony Joshua has outperformed his long-time rival Tyson Fury in the latest Sunday Times Rich List, with reported earnings of £240 million compared to Fury's £162 million. Joshua sits eighth on the list, one place above Fury, who makes his debut in ninth position.
Fury's earnings include substantial purses from his two fights against Oleksandr Usyk in 2024, where he reportedly pocketed £85 million from the first bout and a share of the £150 million purse from the rematch. After a brief retirement, Fury returned to the ring in April 2026, defeating Arslanbek Makhmudov and taking home an estimated £18.8 million. His move to the Isle of Man has also provided tax advantages.
Joshua's wealth was boosted significantly by his 2025 fight against Jake Paul, with both fighters reportedly earning around £100 million each. The 36-year-old also benefits from lucrative sponsorship deals with brands such as Under Armour, Hugo Boss, Land Rover, and Jaguar, as well as a multi-fight agreement with DAZN worth £100 million for two fights per year.
Both boxers are expected to finally face each other later this year, with Joshua scheduled to fight Kristian Prenga on July 25 as a precursor. The Sunday Times Rich List, compiled by Robert Watts, includes other sporting figures such as Rory McIlroy, Harry Kane, and Sir Lewis Hamilton.
