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

[ShoulderRoll]

Joshua is the B-side.

[SteveM]

Endorsements. Fury $7 million. Wilder $500K - Fury 14 times more endorse-able than Wilder. Seems like yelling Bombsquad! is more off-putting than a history of racist/misogynist comments

[whatismyname]

Well deserved, the lineal champ deserves it

[Squared.Circle]

Baaaahahaha what the actual deuce...Wilder hasn’t made 46.5m in his entire career, nevermind in one year And AJ received a 50m payoff from the Saudis...on top of his purse and PPV revenue. Forbes needs to hire some new internet geeks to do their estimates.

[Vinnykin]

Not a bad little sum for the Gypsy King..... if it's accurate.

To think he still lives in a normal house in Morecambe.... apart from a few nice Land Rovers and a Ferrari.... not an extravagant lifestyle. He must have loads in the bank.

[Tyistall]

So, you idiots really think Fury made 57 million off fighting Tom Schwarz, Otto Wallin (in front of 4k fans) and Wilder... then there's no arguing with you. You are a special kind of ******. Also, Wilder getting 46.5 million while never even coming close to selling out an arena? And a mediocre PPV? Hahahahahahah. AJ made more than that in the Ruiz rematch alone. I'm sure you Wilder and Fury fans are having a field day with these numbers, but the reality is something all together different.

[SinderellaMan]

Swear by forbes? I've never cited that fraudulent American publication in a comment ever. It's not a credible source of information.

So you mean AJ went to Saudi Arabia to fight for less than $5million while Ruiz made $13million and Sky also pocketed the record breaking UK PPV and DAZN didn't pay him a penny.

Because going by the $47million - that's the first Ruiz fight and endorsements. They claimed he made $13million from Endorsement and the DAZN purse for that fight was $32million. And that means he made $2million in Saudi Arabia. LMAOOOOO

Saudi Arabia was a flop boo boo.
Keep drinking Hearn's kool aid.
Your delusional to the point you really think the problem is everybody else?

[Lenharvey]

This is a BS list. These lists always are. Can’t believe Joshua only earned $4 mill more in endorsements that Tyson. Joshua has Lucozade with his own drink, Lynx with his own product range (just saw the prat in TV advertising lynx Africa ��) and under armour. What does Tyson have that rivals that? I’m well pleased for Tyson anyway if it’s true. *** PED fake #stayhumble closet hom0sexual Joshua and his lover AKA Skinz ��. Also surely the two Ruiz fights together esp Saudi money made as more than Wilder 2 and Tyson can’t have been paid much for Schwarz and Wallin.... and where’s Clenbuterol?

[MrRolltide91]

Cinnamon where u at?

The heavyweights taking over

[Cool Scant]

The crowd at Wembley watching him were computer graphics and his UK PPV numbers were also made up.

The guy made $2million for the Ruiz rematch while Ruiz made $13million.

the crowd at Wembley wast computer graphics, the tickets are extremely cheap. That’s why wilder v Fury II live gate revenue crushed any live gate revenue for all of AJs fight wilts less than a quarter of the people in attendance
