Comments Thread For: Fury is Top Paid Combat Sports Star on Forbes 2020 'Highest Paid Athletes' List

[BangEM]

I had to check again.

According to Forbes, Fury made $7m from endorsements and I'm yet to see Fury in any advert apart from his knock off merchandise he bought off Aliexpress for 99p per T-shirt. But Josh who's on almost every advert made $13m from endorsements. LMAOOOO.

I expect it to be similar reading over the next couple of years...


Wilder with only half mil in endorsement? That's What happens when your stuff only makes it to dollar store shelves... No wonder he's in talks with George Foreman

This is somewhat flawed, Because of Covid Canelo's fight was cancelled, but if he fights twice later this year he will make upwards of 70+ million for the year, if he would of fought 3 times it would of been 100+ making him not only the highest paid in combat sports but the highest paid athlete as well.

Messi and Ronaldo huge pay cuts etc would have had a huge say in it all.. flawed, but same rules for everyone

But I have a feeling that Hearn AJ and his fans lie about his earnings so they can lowball everyone else.

I never realised boxing fans had such influence in negotiations between 2 fighter's..

You learn something new every day..

Fury and Fish Eyes run British boxing now.

Hearn & the Matchroom FC boys on suicide watch.

If Aj fought more than once every 6 to 9 months he'd be top. If he undesputed in 18 instead of ducking & fighting old man Pov he'd be top.
I bet Aj & Hearn are sick to they're stomach's about this.
That's what you get for playing moneyball boxing instead of trying to be the man.
Never fought a top 2 heavyweight & don't say Klitschko. He was 41 & been inactive for so long he was unranked.

Stay safe

It is nice to know that he made more boxing money than Joshua, since a long running narrative was that he makes chump change and didn't deserve 50-50.

Shows what a crazy world we live in when people earn those figures in endorsement anyways...

Advertising this and that etc... I buy/spend on something because I like it not because a certain celeb or whatever is pretending they use/like it...

Wilders not as daft as he looks, he will make sure he's well paid and rightly so

[Cool Scant]

How can an offer of $12.5/15M from a guy making $1m a fight lowball offer?

I'm lost here, mate.

Because the fight was worth $100M. It’s ridiculous that a guy making $1M a fight was trying to make $87.5M x his highest payday 🤣
