Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois will reportedly share an insane $203.5 million fight purse when they rematch on Saturday.
And that is a figure UFC commentator and popular podcast host Joe Rogan seemingly can’t come to terms with.
Usyk has the opportunity to become a two-time undisputed heavyweight champion at Wembley Stadium this weekend, having defeated Tyson Fury in his last two fights since stopping Dubois in 2023.
The Ukrainian fought Dubois in Poland two years ago, finishing the Brit in round nine after he was on the receiving end of a highly-debated low blow.
Dubois, meanwhile, can become the first British undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in his huge clash with Usyk.
He shockingly knocked out Anthony Joshua at Wembley in September to become the IBF titleholder, having won the interim version of the belt by defeating Filip Hrgovic three months prior.
Ahead of his clash, Rogan, a prominent figure in the combat sports world, has been shocked to learn how much both fighters will earn from their highly anticipated rematch.
“Did you see the numbers that Usyk and Dubois are getting?” Rogan asked Israel Adesanya and Alexander Volkanovski during a backstage meeting at UFC 317 last month.
The podcaster’s jaw then dropped to the floor as he pulled out his phone to show the UFC stars the reported figures.
“132 and 71! Look at the numbers, $132 million and $71 million,” he added.
“That’s crazy numbers for purses… 132 and 71!”
According to the Baltimore Chronicle, Usyk will walk away from his fight against Dubois with a whopping $132.28 million (£98.35m).
This leaves Dubois with $71.22 million (£52.95m), with both men reportedly sharing a whopping £203.5 million (£151.3m) payday.
If these figures are correct, both men’s net worths will be monumentally increased.
Usyk’s estimated net worth was around £45 million ahead of his second fight with Fury in Saudi Arabia.
It is believed ‘The Cat’ shared an estimated £115m purse with Fury in the pair’s first bout, with the rematch boasting an incredible £150m prize pot.
Dubois, meanwhile, reportedly made around £10m following his KO win over ‘AJ’ in September, having brought in just over £1.5m from his first fight with Usyk.
Fight purses are rarely ever officially confirmed for huge fights like Usyk vs Dubois 2, but there’s no doubt both men will make an instrumental amount of money.
There will also be a lot of money on the line by way of the oddsmakers, as proven by Canelo Alvarez, who last week placed a $500,000 bet on Usyk to beat Dubois.
British world title challenger Anthony Yarde agrees with the Mexican’s prediction.
He told talkSPORT ahead of the massive occasion at Wembley that he can’t bet against the Ukrainian.
“We cannot go against Usyk,” he said.
“I don’t care what anyone says. As much as I know Daniel, I like Daniel, based on performances, we can’t go against Usyk.
“He’s a master operator.”
