In a highly anticipated boxing match set for September 21, 2024, Anthony Joshua is poised to earn a staggering ₦13 billion from his bout against Daniel Dubois. This IBF world heavyweight title fight, taking place at Wembley Stadium, is generating significant buzz, not just for the match’s stakes but also for the substantial earnings involved.
Anthony Joshua’s earnings for this fight are guaranteed to be ₦13 billion, translating from a reported £6 million purse. However, with the potential for pay-per-view sales to boost his income, Joshua’s total earnings could exceed ₦54 billion, given his advantageous 60/40 revenue split. The fight offers Joshua a chance to reassert his dominance in the heavyweight division, potentially making him only the sixth fighter to capture the heavyweight title three times.
On the other side, Daniel Dubois, 27, stands to make a guaranteed £3.5 million, which could rise to £10 million depending on the pay-per-view success. This bout marks a significant payday for Dubois, surpassing his previous high of £1.6 million from his loss to Oleksandr Usyk.
For Joshua, this fight is among the most lucrative of his career, though it does not include additional performance-related bonuses or pay-per-view incentives. His past earnings, such as the £39.8 million from his fight against Francis Ngannou, highlight his potential to earn significantly from this blockbuster event.
As the fight approaches, the anticipation is building, and while final figures will be confirmed post-fight, both fighters are set for considerable financial rewards.
