Anthony Joshua emerges wealthier than Tyson Fury, according to the Sunday Times Rich List, with an estimated net worth of £240 million ($320 million) compared to Fury's £162 million ($216 million). This revelation sets the stage for their anticipated clash later in 2026.
The Sunday Times also highlights that the combined fortune of Eddie Hearn and Barry Hearn stands at £1.035 billion, placing them third on the British sports rich list, behind only Bernie Ecclestone and the Beckhams. Joshua ranks as the eighth richest athlete, while Fury follows closely at ninth.
Joshua, who recently attended Fury’s victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov, prepares to return to the ring on July 25 against Kristian Prenga in Saudi Arabia. This bout marks his first since a tragic car accident claimed the lives of two friends. Meanwhile, Fury is expected to schedule a warm-up fight before facing Joshua, as confirmed by promoter Frank Warren.
Though no specifics on the date, venue, or broadcasting details for their showdown have been released, November is being eyed as a potential timeframe. The financial stakes are high, and the upcoming matches promise to capture the attention of boxing fans worldwide.
