Promoter Eddie Hearn (middle) recently revealed the remuneration for the Joshua – Fury match,a “classic English civil war” fight.

In mid-2020, representatives of both Fury and Joshua came very close to an agreement to bet on a “classic British boxing civil war” for these two outstanding boxers. At that time, the media reported that Fury – Joshua would fight 2 matches and the expected fight in 2021 was valued at a compensation of up to 150 million pounds.

For many reasons this match could not take place at that time. However, the Joshua – Fury fight seems to be seriously restarting negotiations. Both famous promoters: Eddie Hearn (head of Matchroom Boxing, Joshua’s management unit) – Frank Warren (head of Queensberry, Tyson Fury’s management unit) have mentioned the time frame for organizing the scheduled boxing match. this history.

Even in the latest development, boss Eddie Hearn also revealed the competition fee that Joshua – Fury will receive when competing.

“Remuneration? You’re talking about 100 million pounds per fighter and that could very well be the minimum. Yes, it would definitely be the biggest paid fight in the history of heavyweight boxing.” “, Eddie Hearn revealed in the Uncensored interview program with famous journalist Piers Morgan.

“We (Matchroom Boxing) promote negotiations and prepare everything for Anthony Joshua. Of course, we will receive a percentage of Joshua’s compensation. The number will be about 10%.”

The Joshua – Fury match will go down in world heavyweight boxing history in terms of competition remuneration

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.
