The proposed site fee to stage the Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua fight in Saudi Arabia exceeds $150 million, shattering the record for any site fee for a boxing event, according to ESPN's Mark Kriegel.
Fury and Joshua each will net around $75 million, and the rest, several million dollars, will be allocated for "expenses," including to pay for undercard fights.
To put it context, the site fee for one of Joshua's fights against Andy Ruiz was $60 million, according to The Athletic.
However, nothing is final yet. Matchroom managing director Eddie Hearn received a proposed memorandum of understanding for the fight's financial backers, per sources, but he's still waiting on a legal-binding document to make the transaction official.
