British boxer, Anthony Joshua is expected to walk away with $85 million at the end of the rematch with WBA, IBF and WBO champion, Andy Ruiz Jnr on Saturday, December 7, 2019.

The staggering sum in the bout set for Ad Diriyah in Saudi Arabia will give Joshua the heftiest pay-night ever for a British boxer.

Joshua is aiming to reclaim the titles he lost to the Mexican-American boxer in their last outing in June at Madison Square Garden.

According to Riyadh Newsflash, Joshua will pocket $85 million from the rematch while Ruiz Jnr will go home with $13 million whether he wins or loses the bout. The amount is $2 million more than he earned in the first meeting with Joshua.

Joshua was humiliated by four knockdowns on his way to a seventh-round knock out which shocked the entire boxing world.
