According to the ranking of the British publication GiveMeSport
After the Ukrainian boxer, the undisputed world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, defeated Tyson Fury in the rematch, which took place in Riyadh in December 2024, he entered the top five wealthiest boxers on the planet. His wealth is estimated at more than $214 million.
Usyk earned about $100 million from his second victory over Tyson Fury. Add to this the large earnings from previous fights with Fury and two bouts with Anthony Joshua – and it’s easy to see why the Ukrainian has joined the top five richest boxers of all time. What makes his $214 million fortune even more impressive is that he has fought in the heavyweight division only eight times in his professional career.
