Tyson Fury is one of the biggest names in all of boxing. He is scheduled to face Deontay Wilder next year in a massive rematch. Their previous fight ended in a controversial draw.
Tyson is also wrestling at WWE’s upcoming Crown Jewel event in Saudi Arabia. He will be taking on Braun Strowman in his first-ever wrestling match.
We have a rumor to pass your way about how much money Fury is getting paid for this match with WWE.
The Daily Mail first reported that Fury was being paid $15million (£11.9m) for the match in Saudi Arabia. Alex McCarthy of talkSPORT has also asked around and learned that Fury’s payday is in that same ballpark:
This would correlate with the rumors of the Prince of Saudi Arabia really wanting Fury at this event. It looks like he is willing to pay some major money to make it happen.
