The time for talk is over. Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury is set to go down on Sunday, February 26 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Paul vs. Fury will be co-promoted by Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions and Top Rank Boxing, and air live on ESPN+ pay-per-view beginning at 2:00 p.m. ET.
It is the biggest fight of Paul’s professional boxing career and the biggest payday of Fury’s.
But how much will each fighter earn for the night?
According to reports, Paul is set to earn $3.2 million from the fight and 65 percent of the pay-per-view buys, along with outside endorsements. Fury, meanwhile, will earn $2 million for the fight with a 35 percent share of pay-per-view-money.
Boxing Kingdom estimates that after final numbers are determined, Paul will have earned approximately $25 million, while Fury will earn about $7 million
Purses:
Tommy Fury $7M US

Not too shabby.
Of course, there was the “all or nothing” bet at the pre-fight press conference, but it is hard to tell just how serious the bet was.
