Joshua and Ngannou's Purse Amounts Made Public

TalkSPORT has disclosed the purse amounts for Anthony Joshua (27-3, 24 KOs) and Francis Ngannou (0-1). Reports indicate that the Cameroonian former UFC champion will receive around $20 million, double what Ngannou earned for his fight against Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs).

The British former heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg) will take home more than $50 million. This fight could become the most lucrative in Anthony's career.

The figures mentioned do not include revenues from pay-per-view, winning commission, etc. The purses are still not officially confirmed, so the amounts could change.

The showdown between Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou (0-1) is scheduled for March 8th in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
