Anthony Joshua has been named among the top three highest-earning boxers in 2024 despite suffering a shocking defeat to Daniel Dubois in September
The former two-time heavyweight champion earned a guaranteed purse of £6m from the Wembley Stadium bout, with additional pay-per-view revenue, potentially pushing his earnings beyond £25m if PPV buys reached 850,000.
Only Tyson Fury and Canelo Alvarez earned more than the British-Nigerian pugilist this year, with the Gipsy King banking an enormous $100m from his historic undisputed heavyweight clash against Oleksandr Usyk in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in May.
Mexican superstar Alvarez secured “north of $35m” for his successful undisputed super middleweight title defence against compatriot Jaime Munguia at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, according to boxing journalist Dan Rafael.
