    Enough to feed his pony and keep his cazza heated.

    Enough to take a flight out here to the US and fight a real opponent.

    I heard from a guy in my gym that one of our fighters (don't know his name) once fought on Friday Night Fights (within the last 8 years or so).

    He was the opponent (there to get beat down) and he was paid $25K.

    If I had to guess, I'd say Fury is probably making 50-100K per fight and getting a share of the gate/television.

    Bigger fights against name fighters, probably between $100-$200K.

    Fury is making tremendous money and he is the #1 ranked Hw contender in the World

    To the poster above it is beneath for Fury to fight on FNF's hes way too talented to on that show and fight the bums that they usually have. The only reason people watch FNF's is because Teddy Atlas the best boxing expert is there to explain the sweet science and breakdown upcoming fights.

    He must be making enough if he can turn down $650000 from Price's camp.

    He (his family) are already minted, like most travellers really.

    Probably a lot (for a boxer of his age/level of competition)
