So the new school of thought is that I need to be a billionaire. "Being a millionaire is good, but you have to set your sights higher. Spartan Promotions turned over £63.9m for the February 2020 financial year and made a gross profit of £57.9million. The Brit will increase his net worth, which currently sits at around £115m, to close to £150m after pocketing a huge payday for the rematch. Joshua admitted that once he pockets a £100million payday, it would be hard not think about becoming a billionaire from boxing. Not all of the heavyweight's earning have come from his fights, with Joshua owning two companies in Spartan Promotions and 258 MGT.

The unified heavyweight titles are once again on the line when the pair meet in Saudi Arabia.

Had Joshua committed to finishing Ruiz in their rematch instead of playing it safe, the betting odds for this rematch might look a lot different. A lot of that likely centers around the fact that although Usyk is not known as a big puncher at heavyweight, he succeeded in the early rounds by stinging Joshua with just enough clean left hands to discipline him away from trying to walk down his smaller foe. But those differences will only become an advantage for Joshua if he's able to cut off the ring, slow Usyk down with body shots and use his bulk to lean on Usyk. The 32-year-old Englishman decided to move up to 175 pounds following the defeat and debuted with a second-round TKO of Lenin Castillo in September 2021. But there's only so many clean punches Joshua can take behind a chin that has been routinely questioned throughout his well-publicized reign, which included AJ getting up off the canvas to finish former unified king Wladimir Klitschko in their 2017 thriller. The former WBC super middleweight champion fought Adonis Stevenson to a draw in 2018 in a bid to become a light heavyweight champion before suffering back-to-back losses against Marcus Browne and Jean Pascal for other titles at 175 pounds. "The whole world has to know that Ukraine is the country of free transport, and strong and spiritually dependent people. "The champion did what he was supposed to do and we are ready. Not only did Usyk's native Ukraine enter a massive conflict following an invasion from Russia, Usyk was among the many notable combat sports athletes to put his career on pause in order to join his nation's fight on the frontlines. "We had enough time to study each other and this Saturday will be a great, great fight." Usyk has brought back the shaved head with small pony tail on top that he proudly wore while winning gold at heavyweight in the 2012 London Olympics, the same event that Joshua also won gold at super heavyweight. In defense of Joshua (24-2, 22 KOs), he has been here and done that before.
