Highest earning boxers in 2020

[Zelda]

According to Forbes (from Jul 2019 to Jun 2020) in the list of highest-earning athletes. Note that part of this time is included in the pandemic.
1. Tyson Fury, ranked at 11 (total earnings = $57m ($50m earnings + $7m endorsements)
2. Anthony Joshua, ranked at 19 (total earnings = $47m ($36m earnings + $11m endorsements)
3. Deontay Wilder, ranked at 20 (total earnings = $46.5m ($46m earnings + $0.5m endorsements)
4. Canelo alvarez ranked at 30 (total earnings = $37m ($35m earnings + $2 endorsements)

Overall, the list is dominated by footballers, American football players, basketball players, tennis players, and racing drivers along with a few golfers. Footballers/tennis stars/golfers have crazy endorsements.

It appears Joshua and Wilder earned roughly the same (only $0.5m difference) and Wilder got paid more in the ring while Joshua has better endorsements. Fury beats both of them by a margin but is nowhere near the top earners Federer, Ronaldo, and Neymar whose earnings are roughly $100m each. Federer has $100m in endorsements alone. I am sure it will be very different for 2021 where Wilder and Fury have seen no action at all. For Wilder, it sums the earnings from Ortiz and Fury while for Joshua, it is the Ruiz fight in Saudi.

So, if Joshua got paid $36m in Saudi, what kind of "huge site fee" are we talking about for the Fury fight?

This is not accurate

Canelo has made in excess of over 50million with his endorsement outside of US as well looks like Forbes isn’t counting that or not aware of it.

[Boxing>MMA]

If Canelo actually fights 4 times 2021 und Fury vs AJ happens at least once, then the Top 3 highest payed athletes in the world would all be boxers.

[Thuglife Nelo]

Canelo is embarking in the petroleum business in Mexico. That earning will exponentially surpass his sport salary. His boxing pay will be secondary yet still the highest paid

I just wanted to say I like your name.

Fury earning more than AJ. That isn’t going to go down well.

What about Mike Tyson?

I would take what Forbes says with a grain of salt. They are known to be inaccurate when estimating earnings.
