Francis Ngannou's official purse proves he earned 50 times less than Tyson Fury

Fury and Wilder played out one of the most exciting trilogies in boxing history when they met in 2018, 2020 and 2021, with the Brit winning two of the fights after their first ended in a draw.

And both men were paid considerably more for their involvements in the fights than Ngannou has made in multiple UFC bouts.
