Anthony Joshua (“AJ”) is reported to be making around $90–95 million for the Jake Paul fight before taxes and other deductions, with most reputable reports centering on about $92–93 million.

What AJ Is Reportedly Getting

  • Several outlets and analysts report that Anthony Joshua and Jake Paul are splitting a giant purse more or less down the middle, with each man earning roughly $92–93 million from the bout.
  • Some coverage describes a total purse in the $184–187 million range, which lines up with about $92–94 million per fighter depending on the exact currency conversion and bonuses.

Why You See Different Numbers

  • You might see numbers like “£140 million” or talk of Joshua “pocketing up to £70 million,” which usually reflect different estimates, currencies (pounds vs dollars), and whether the source is talking about guaranteed purse only or including projected bonuses and backend.
  • One viral angle has been Joshua’s tax hit: some reports say he effectively keeps far less after combined US and UK taxes, even though the headline figure is around $90+ million.

Social Media Hype vs Reality

  • Jake Paul himself has hyped a combined figure of $267 million for the event on social media, which most boxing journalists treat as promotional exaggeration rather than a hard contract number.
  • More conservative breakdowns from sports and entertainment outlets continue to converge on that roughly $92–93 million range per fighter as the most realistic estimate for “how much AJ is getting” for the Jake Paul fight.
