If betting odds were formed off of the luxuries and riches that come along with a successful boxing career, then former two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua would blow Daniel Dubois out of the water. The pair of heavyweight punchers will face each other for Dubois’ IBF title on Saturday.
Joshua is looking to become a three-time heavyweight champion with a net worth of $82million (£62.8m), according to Forbes. His collective earnings over his last 10 bouts alone equal $340m (£258.3m), making him one of the highest-paid athletes in boxing and the No.16 highest-paid athlete in the world last year.
Most of Joshua’s known riches were earned in the ring, but another portion was made in real estate and his own promotional company, Sparta Promotions. The company reportedly doubled its revenue and earned record profits in 2023.
Joshua is also a DAZN partner, shareholder, brand ambassador, and advisor to the company. They will be the UK service providers for the heavyweight fight versus Dubois.
The 34-year-old heavyweight also has an investment in the Alpine Formula 1 team with fellow celebrities Patrick Mahomes, Michael B Jordan and Rory McIlroy. With a love for speed and cars, Joshua also has a collection of exotic vehicles.
Joshua’s collection includes a fleet of high-end vehicles, such as a Jaguar XJR, Mercedes-Maybach S600, Range Rover Autobiography, Bentley Bentayga, Ferrari 812 Superfast, Lamborghini Aventador, Tesla Model X and a Rolls-Royce Ghost. He posed on top of the hood of one of his many cars on Instagram, captioning the photo that he’d be heading to the pub to watch England in the 2024 Euros.
In an interview with the Gentleman’s Journal, the boxing star detailed his love for cars. “I now understand cars’ beauty. I’m driving vehicles that are far nicer than I would have expected,” he said. “Driving is a great rest, and, on a good day, it’s all about the car you’re in, too. I’ve got a Jaguar XJR.”
Dubois is a 27-year-old up-and-coming star on the heavyweight boxing scene with a 21-2 record. His signature victory came over Jarrell Miller in Saudi Arabia on the same night that Joshua defeated Otto Wallin in the main event.
Dubois’ estimated net worth in his young career is around $5 million. His fight earnings remain unknown but are assumed to be far from Joshua’s money as he began stepping into high-profile fights in 2023, where he lost to Oleksandr Usyk.
DON’T MISS
Dubois has connections to Queensberry Promotions, but his investment portfolio is private. His car collection may not match Joshua’s quantity, but he still has a 2023 220d AMG Mercedes-Benz and a Bentley GTC Convertible.
The Benz’s base model retails for $82,450 (£62,600), while his Bentley’s starting price for the lowest-end model is $267,000 (£202,800). The average cost for a used car model beyond 2022 is $207,356 (£157,300), with the 2020 model averaging $191,947 (£145,800).
