Alright, let’s talk about this Usyk fella and how much money he’s got. You know, these boxers, they make a whole lot of dough, punchin’ each other and all.
So, how much is Usyk worth in 2024? Well, from what I hear, that boy’s sittin’ on a pile of money, about $50 million, they say. That’s a lot of cabbage, ain’t it? Heard tell it’s around £45 million in them pounds, too. Money’s money, I guess, no matter how ya count it.
Now, he didn’t start out with all that, no sir. Back in the day, before he fought that big fella, Joshua, twice, he only had, like, $4 million to his name. Can you believe it? Just $4 million! Then, boom! He beats Joshua, and his money just explodes. They say after that second fight with Joshua, he was up to around $10 million, maybe even more.
- First fight with Joshua, they say he got a cool $75 million. That’s more money than most folks see in a lifetime, I reckon.
- Then the rematch, they split the money, see? But it was still a whole lot, ’cause they were fightin’ in one of them rich countries where they got oil and all that.
And that ain’t all. He’s been fightin’ other fellas too, you know. Big names, tough guys. Heard he got $1.5 million just for fightin’ some Witherspoon guy back in 2019. And that was just the start. Every fight, he gets paid more and more. It’s like a snowball rollin’ downhill, just gettin’ bigger and bigger.
Now, they say he’s gonna fight this Fury fella, “The Gypsy King” they call him. That’s gonna be a big one, a real money maker. Heard they’re gonna split somethin’ like $150 million! Can you imagine? Half of that’s still enough to make your head spin. Even though last time, against Joshua again, Usyk only got about $30 million, this time gonna be way more, way, way more.
But it ain’t just the fightin’ money, see? These fellas, they get money from other places too. Endorsements, they call ’em. That’s when companies pay ’em to say their stuff is good. Like, if Usyk says he likes a certain kind of cereal, then everyone’s gonna wanna buy that cereal, ya know? It’s kinda silly, but that’s how it works. And that adds up, all that endorsement money. It just piles on top of the fight money.
So, yeah, $50 million. That’s a whole lotta money. More than I’ll ever see, that’s for sure. But these boxers, they work hard for it, I guess. Trainin’ all the time, gettin’ punched in the face. It ain’t easy, that’s for sure. But when you’re winnin’ like Usyk, the money just keeps comin’.
And let me tell ya, this Fury fight, that’s gonna be somethin’ else. Everyone’s talkin’ about it. Who’s gonna win? Who’s gonna get the bigger share of the money? It’s all anyone cares about right now. But one thing’s for sure, both them fellas, Usyk and Fury, they gonna be even richer after it’s all over.
So, there ya have it. Usyk’s worth a whole heap of money in 2024. Fifty million dollars, they say. And he might just get even richer after he fights that Fury fella. It’s a crazy world, this boxin’ world. But hey, if you can punch good, you can make a whole lot of money, I guess.
And just think, all that started with just boxing, one punch at a time. Kinda like farmin’, but with more blood and less dirt.
Anyways, that’s what I’ve heard about that Usyk fella. Seems like he’s doin’ alright for himself, wouldn’t you say?
