Former WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury $147 million In 2024, he ranked third among the highest-paid athletes in 2024. The 36-year-old Angry (34-2-1, 24 KOS) lost to Oleksandr Usyk, and his outstanding performances began in 2020 at the peak of his career.
The Gypsy King’s Gold
The $147 million that Fury created doesn’t equal his actual ability, because he doesn’t perform like a fighter worth the kind of money. What he did was due to the character of Turki al-Sheikh and everything he did when he was still firing on all eight cylinders years ago.
According to celebrity net worth, Fury has a net worth of $250 million, and if he turns back on his back, he can easily double that number to $500 million.

Tyson Fury: $147 million
If King Gissi chooses to retire in two battles with Anthony Joshua in 2025, he will make more than his $147 million figure last year.
Strangely, the value Fury offers in actual entertainment doesn’t match the dough he gets. He would pay a lot for what he left in the tank.
Fury is an example of a fighter who gained his reputation from a big win 10 years ago against the former Wladimir Klitschko and then selectively matched during weak periods of heavyweight divisions.
It would be fun if Fury had never fought Wladimir but instead fought Anthony Joshua, Martin Bakole, Agit Kabayel, Zhilei Zhang, Usyk and Daniel Dubois.
In order to lose to Usyk in a rematch in Riyadh on December 21, he will be defeated by six or seven heavyweights in the division. The absolute truth is never that good. Once you pass Deontay Wilder and 39-year-old Wladimir Klitschko, his resume is barren.
