What is Tyson Fury’s net worth?

Tyson Fury has announced his retirement from boxing again. He previously retired from the sport in 2022 but returned six months later.

Fury has made a name for himself as one of the greatest fighters of his generation, but after his second defeat to heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk in December 2024, he has decided to step away from the ring.

Though he is far from the richest person in the world or as wealthy as other sports personalities such as David Beckham, Michael Jordan, Cristiano Ronaldo, or Lewis Hamilton, Fury was ranked 42nd on Forbes’ list of the highest-paid athletes in the world in 2024.

Tyson Fury’s net worth stands at $50 million, but not all of it comes from his boxing career. He’s made money both on and off the battleground - such as with his own Netflix show.

We look into how Tyson Fury makes his millions and other ventures that’ll keep him busy through retirement.

Tyson Fury’s net worth as a boxing champion

Tyson Fury is a two-time British heavyweight boxing world champion who has held the World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight title since 2020. Named after the legendary American boxer Mike Tyson by his dad, Fury was already making waves in the amateur circuit at the age of 10.

Some of his greatest knockout wins have been against opponents such as Derek Chisora, Wladimir Klitschko and Deontay Wilder. Having found such success in the boxing ring, it’s no wonder that Fury made millions from it. He secured a five-fight deal with ESPN and Top Rank in 2019, which was valued at $100 million. He created history by becoming the most successful purse bid of $41 million in December 2021 (when the highest bidder wins the right to put on the fight) after being challenged by the WBC president to defend his title.

Fury hadn’t tasted defeat in his 16-year career until Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk beat him twice in May and December 2024.

Despite the two losses, both Fury and Usyk pocketed £150 million, though Fury missed out on another £30 million due to the defeat, The Sun reports. Fury had previously earned £79 million from his initial bout with Usyk.

Following his defeat, around £30 million of his prize money will be lost to income tax and national insurance contributions as he’s a UK resident, according to data from JettBet as reported in The Mirror. This means that nearly half (47%) of his winnings would be taken by HMRC – £28 million in income tax and £1.2 million for National Insurance.

Tyson Fury’s business ventures

Outside the boxing ring, Fury has made appearances in the documentary biopic Tyson Fury: The Gypsy King, and shared a glimpse into his family life on the Netflix show At Home with the Furys.

He published an autobiography about his struggle with drugs, alcohol and mental health called Behind The Mask in November 2019, which became an Amazon bestseller in 24 hours. A year later, his second book The Furious Method also became a Sunday Times bestseller.

In a surprise move, he was a guest vocalist for Robbie Williams' album The Christmas Present, where he sang Bad Sharon. Fury also released a cover of Sweet Caroline to raise money for the men's mental health charity Talk Club in 2022.

Fury’s sponsorship deals have also upped his net worth, with earnings from the popular Betr sports betting app and his venture capital platform Anti Fund with entrepreneur Geoffrey Woo.

Fury expanded his business ventures by launching a range of energy drinks under the brand Furocity Energy, as competition to Red Bull and Monster Energy.

In June 204, The Mirror revealed that Fury’s business empire had more than doubled and was worth over £80 million, according to his company Tyson Fury Limited’s accounts. It means that in the 18 months to June, he earned £381,000 a week, including when he won title fights against Derek Chisora and Dillian Whyte.

Is Tyson Fury retiring now?

Fury announced his retirement from boxing in a video posted on Instagram in January 2025.

This isn’t Fury’s first official retirement announcement – he previously announced that he would retire in April 2022, but returned just after six months.

However, the BBC reported that many fans are eager to see a clash between Fury and fellow Briton Anthony Joshua. Joshua even spoke at the Ring Magazine awards that a fight with Fury “has to happen this year”.

When asked about Fury’s retirement, British sports promoter Eddie Hearn told the BBC Sport, “We've been here before. If that is the end, congratulations on a great career.”

“One of the best heavyweights of this generation and made a bucket load of money. If your heart’s not in it, if the fight has been punched out of you, it's definitely time to call it quits.

“A few people will always suggest that he could be calling a bluff, but I don't know him well enough to give you an answer. If you don't want it anymore, if your heart’s not in it anymore, if you've had the fight punched out of you – it's a dangerous game.”
