British-Nigerian boxing star Anthony Joshua has been named amongst Britain’s richest athletes.

The two-time heavyweight world champion has seen his earnings soar by a whopping £20million, according to the newly published Sunday Times Rich List.

The 35-year-old is now worth a whopping £195m compared to his value of £175m last year. Joshua is also listed among the most wealthy under-40s in the UK – sitting in at 24th place.

The boxing sensation hasn’t fought since suffering a devastating knockout to Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium last September. It looked like that the pair would square-off in an immediate rematch, but ‘AJ’ suffered a slight setback after picking up some minor injuries in the first encounter.

Over the last few years, the boxer has become accustomed to pocketing life-changing paydays. It was reported that he earned around £30m for his second-round KO of Francis Ngannou last year.

Joshua reportedly banked a guaranteed £6m following his defeat to Dubois – but roughly took home around £25m in total following pay-per-view sales.

 

From endorsement deals alone in the world of boxing, Joshua earned the join-most, featuring alongside Jake Paul.

 

However, despite the growth in his net worth, Joshua isn’t the number one athlete on the Sunday Times’ list. That accolade belongs to golf star Rory McIlroy. The 36-year-old is worth a jaw-dropping £260m compared to his value of £225m a year ago.

 

His rise over the last year has seen him stay in front of the likes of Harry Kane – whose £100m value placed him at No.38 in the list.

 

The only other name included on the staggering list from the world of sport was Andy Murray, who placed at 35 on the list with £110m.
