Anthony Joshua’s net worth still trails behind influencer Jake Paul
Joshua’s star power continues despite recent losses
Heavyweight boxer Anthony Joshua’s net worth is estimated to be £120 million, but it’s still lower than influencer Jake Paul’s. Joshua will step into the ring tonight against American heavyweight Jermaine Franklin at London’s O2 arena in front of a sold-out crowd. Despite losing two consecutive fights, Joshua remains one of the most high-profile names in boxing, and he hopes to generate huge fights against Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder with a victory tonight.
Joshua’s lucrative purses
Joshua has earned some lucrative purses, including £65 million for his last fight against Usyk in Saudi Arabia. However, reports suggest that he could earn up to another £10 million for his latest outing, which still means he falls behind some of the leading names in boxing.
Paul’s massive net worth
In comparison, Jake Paul has generated an estimated net worth of £300 million since his career started, which includes his takings from streaming platform YouTube and social media, as well as outside investments and a potentially lucrative deal with MMA promotion PFL. Paul’s recent huge showdown with Tommy Fury could also lead to a money-spinning rematch.
Joshua’s potential for growth
Joshua’s net worth is likely to continue rising after signing a long-term deal with streaming service DAZN, expected to be worth a mega £95 million in total. He has already pocketed around £300 million from his professional fights with Matchroom Boxing. With huge fights against Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder lined up, Joshua could potentially earn even more money and offer mega payouts.
Money as Joshua’s “love language”
In an interview with the Independent, Joshua admitted that money is fundamental to his life and is “part of a big jigsaw puzzle.” He believes that money helps people, and it’s his “love language.” He wants to use his wealth to help others and inspire them to achieve similar success.
