Anthony Joshua na Oleksandr Usyk wanatarajiwa kupanda ulingoni kesho Agosti 20, 2022 katika pambano la Uzito wa Juu, taarifa ni kuwa mabondia hao kila mmoja anatarajia kupata zaidi ya Dola Milioni 40 (Tsh. Bilioni 92) kila mmoja.
Pamoja na hivyo dau hilo linaweza kupanda na kufikia Dola Milioni 50 (Tsh. Bilioni 116) kila mmoja kwa kutegemea na idadi ya watu watakaolipa kuangalia pambano hilo katika runinga (pay-per-view).
Waandaaji wa pambano hilo Nchini Saudi Arabia wameweka Dola Milioni 80 (Tsh. Bilioni 186) kwa ajili ya pambano hilo la kugombea mikanda ya WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO na The Ring, ambalo litafanyika kwenye Ukumbi unaoingiza Watu 10,000.

Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk will each receive a minimum of £33.2m for their world heavyweight title rematch in Saudi Arabia
Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk will each receive a guaranteed minimum of £33.2 million ($40m) for their world heavyweight championship rematch here.
This is the second highest purse ever paid to a British boxer, since Joshua’s own record of $60 million for the rematch against Andy Ruiz Jr in Saudi Arabia in which he regained the WBA, IBF and WBO titles following his first career defeat.
This weekend’s bonanza could rise close to $50 million for either Joshua or Usyk if pay-per-view television sales reach a level sufficient to justify adding a bonus for the winner.
The Saudis paid a basic $80 million to stage this Saturday night’s fight in the Jeddah Sports City’s 10,000 seat Arena.
That includes the acquisition of global broadcasting rights, which Sky Sports have purchased for $25 million for their Box Office channel.
That is likely to make the UK the biggest single source of additional revenue since the DAZN digital streaming platform, which is under-subscribed for boxing, is covering most of the rest of the world.
These numbers will be a temptation for Tyson Fury to recant his retirement once more.
The Gypsy King declared as final his decision to quit the ring on his 34th birthday last week but the WBC have given him until next Friday to think again before they declare their title vacant.
The Saudi Kingdom is expected to raise the ante for a fight for the undisputed world heavyweight title involving the winner of Usyk v Joshua. Perhaps as high $100 million (£82m) if Fury is the opponent.
Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn says: ‘They want more big events here, especially the undisputed title, and would prefer it to include Fury.’
