Oleksandr Usyk’s victory over Tyson Fury in December 2024 brought the Ukrainian champion not only the defense of his three heavyweight titles (WBA, WBC and WBO), but also a new status – one of the richest boxers of our time. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Usyk’s net worth has reached $165 million, which has put him at the 6th place in the ranking of the richest boxers of all time.
For the rematch with Fury alone, the Ukrainian earned about $100 million.
Interestingly, even the scandalous blogger and boxer Jake Paul ($100 million) made it into the top 10, while the legendary Mike Tyson with a net worth of $20 million and former champion Anthony Joshua ($80 million) remained off the list.
