Francis Ngannou

FRANCIS NGANNOU Francis Ngannou: Net Worth 2024, Record, Stats &amp; More LAS VEGAS, NEVADA &#8211; MARCH 27: Francis Ngannou of Cameroon reacts after his victory over Stipe Miocic in their UFC heavyweight championship fight during the UFC 260 event at UFC APEX on March 27, 2021 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC) Who is Francis Ngannou? Francis Ngannou is one of the scariest heavyweights on the planet. &#8220;The Predator&#8221; is known for his insane knockouts of top-ranked heavyweights in the UFC. Not only does Francis knock them out, but he also knocks them out early. It&#8217;s been ten years since Cameroon-born Francis Xavier Ngannou became a professional mixed martial arts fighter. The aspiring boxer, who made his pro-boxing debut in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on 28 October 2023, entered the octagon for the first time on November 30, 2013, and two years later joined UFC, where he remained for the next eight years. Now, he prepares for his next fight against two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua on March 8, again in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Francis Ngannouâ€™s Early Life Francis Ngannou was born September 5, 1986, in a village in Batie, Cameroon. The information regarding his education or schooling remains limited. According to a website, he had to walk for about two hours to attend a school six miles from his residence. Another portal even mentioned him switching at least five schools. Anyhow, he started working in a sand quarry at age ten. As almost every fan and follower might be aware, though he could easily converse in French, over the years, Ngannou learned English as well. A few years ago, Ngannou had shared a beautiful photo of his family, three brothers, and a sister, standing around their mother, Mamma Ngannou, who divorced her husband, Emmanuel Fosso, when the future UFC Heavyweight champion was barely six. Francis Ngannouâ€™s Girlfriend The 37-year-old fighter remains a bachelor and, per available reports, doesn&#8217;t seem to be dating anyone. However, according to a July article in The Sun, UK Edition, there were rumors that he was seeing former UFC Bantamweight champion Meisha Tate, but that remains unconfirmed. Recently, there have been rumors of Kim Kardashian supposedly looking to woo the Cameroonian-French Heavyweight. Adding fuel to the fire is Ngannou&#8217;s recent suggestive exchanges on Kim Kardashian&#8217;s social media posts. Francis Ngannouâ€™s Net Worth 2024 According to the celebrity net worth, the 37-year-old Cameroonian-French fighter has, over the years, amassed a wealth that hovers in the vicinity of $5 million. Hence, it would be fair to assume that participation in the UFC contests would have formed the lion&#8217;s share of his lifetime earnings. MMA: UFC 270-Ngannou vs Gane, Jan 22, 2022 Anaheim, California, USA Francis Ngannou speaks with media following his championship victory at UFC 270 at Honda Center. Mandatory Credit: Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports, 22.01.2022 00:01:41, 17551666, NPStrans, Francis Ngannou, Honda Center, MMA PUBLICATIONxINxGERxSUIxAUTxONLY Copyright: xGaryxA.xVasquezx 17551666 There seems to be no unanimity over his take home from the MMA fights alone. While MMA Salaries cites around $3,779,500, The Sports Lite mentions around $4,179,000. Thus, averaging it at $4,000,000 would make his annual income during the eight years he was with the UFC makes it $500,000. Anyhow, according to a January article on GiveMeSport, the annual salary of Francis Ngannou varied as follows:  2015 $25,000  2016 $175,000  2017 $220,000  2018 $900,000  2019 $525,000  2020 $320,000  2021 $900,000  2022 $1,200,000  Let&#8217;s look at some of the critical paydays of Ngannou&#8217;s career. It included his base salary, the bonus for winning, and the sponsorship deal and share in the PPV subscriptions: Versus Luis Henrique, December 2015 &#8211; For his first fight under the UFC banner, Francis Ngannou took home approximately $22,500 (no performance bonus)  Versus Curtis Blaydes, April 2016 &#8211; $26,500 (no performance bonus)  Versus Bojan Mihajlovic, July 2016 &#8211; $30,500 (no performance bonus)  Versus Anthony Hamilton, December 2016 &#8211; $124,500 (performance bonus $50,000)  Versus Andrei Arlovski, January 2017 &#8211; $128,000 (performance bonus $50,000)  Versus Alistair Overeem, December 2017 &#8211; $90,000 (no performance bonus)  Versus Stipe Miocic, January 2018 &#8211; $530,000 (no performance bonus)  Versus Derrick Lewis, July 2018 &#8211; $105,000 (no performance bonus)  Versus Curtis Blaydes II, November 2018 &#8211; $255,000 (performance bonus $50,000)  Versus Cain Velasquez, February 2019 &#8211; $225,000 (no performance bonus)  Versus Junior Dos Santos, June 2019 &#8211; $300,000 (performance bonus $50,000)  Versus Jairzinho Rozenstruik, May 2020 &#8211; $320,000 (performance bonus $50,000)  Versus Stipe Miocic II, March 2021 &#8211; $580,000 (performance bonus $50,000)  Versus Cyril Gane, January 2022 &#8211; $1,042,000 (PPV earnings $400,000) It would be imprudent to conclude that Francis Ngannou made his fortune entirely through mixed martial arts bouts. A close perusal across portals reveals that The Predator could have had or still has endorsement deals with Cryo Pain Relief, CBD Research Labs, Gym King Fight Division, and The Fight Game. According to Forbes, Francis Ngannou invested in the healthy snack brand PeaTos two years ago. The move made him one of the minority stakeholders in the company. Credits &#8211; Imago Finally, after his exit from the UFC this year, the Predator signed up with the Professional Fighters League, where he might receive as much as $4 million for each fight. Additionally, benefits such as chairmanship of the franchise&#8217;s African promotions and greater involvement in the athletic advisory board also appear in the offing. In contrast to his entire MMA career, sources suggest that the Cameroonian-French hard hitter will earn much more in his boxing stints. His debut in the fight format against the WBC champion,Â Tyson Fury,Â solidified his name in the heavyweight division. That Riyadh fight alone earned him a jaw-dropping $10 million, his highest paycheck ever. Through it all, his current estimated net worth in 2024 stands at an impressive $15 million (approx). For his upcoming fight against AJ, Ngannou is guaranteed to take home about $2o million, which will make his net worth significantly higher in the coming days. Francis Ngannouâ€™s MMA and Boxing Career Timeline It might be interesting for many to know that Francis Ngannou&#8217;s initial interest in combat sports remained boxing. He had always been a Mike Tyson fan. However, during his stay in Paris, France, he met another Cameroonian-French mixed martial arts fighter and now coach, Fernand Lopez Owonyebe, at his MMA Factory gym. The latter introduced him to the nuances and scope of MMA, besides allowing him to stay at the gym. By 2013, Francis Ngannou was ready and launched his professional career on November 30. The bout occurred under the French promotion 100% Fight: Contenders 20. Ngannou was on a ten-fight win streak before he faced the UFC heavyweight champion,Â Stipe Miocic. He had obliterated his previous opponents with T/KO&#8217;s and submissions. &#8216;The Predator&#8217; has one of the most devastating knockouts in the UFC againstÂ Alistair Overeem. With a resume like that, Ngannou was next in line to be the heavyweight champion. However, during his title fight against Miocic, Ngannou got overconfident, and it exposed many holes in his game. It took some effort for Ngannou to recover from the loss. His next fight with Derrick Lewis lacked action. He lost to &#8216;The Black Beast&#8217; by a unanimous decision. Many people thought Ngannou was done. However, he made an incredible comeback in his next fight against Curtis Blaydes, followed by his wins over UFC legend Cain Velasquez, Junior dos Santos, and Jairzinho Rozenstruik. &#8216;The Predator&#8217; has put together a 10-2Â recordÂ in the UFC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLqyRdwDzBQ&amp;ab_channel=UFC Let&#8217;s look at some of the big fights he participated in during the last five years: Versus Ciryl Gane, January 22, 2022: Francis Ngannou defeated fellow French fighter Ciryl Gane during the second title defense in Anaheim, California, unanimously.  Versus Stipe Miocic, March 27, 2021: The Predatory became the UFC Heavyweight champion, knocking out the Miocic with punches in the second round. The bout, additionally, fetched him the Performance of the Night award. The fight was equally crucial since it was the second time Ngannou and Miocic were squaring up. The first meet-up ended in a loss for the Cameroonian-French fighter&#8217;s loss. Versus Alistair Overeem, December 2, 2017: One of Francis Ngannou&#8217;s most well-recognized fights. He knocked out the dreaded, hard-hitting kickboxer Alistair Overeem with a bone-cracking left hook in the first round. It was a title eliminator that enabled him to challenge Stipe Miocic the following year. Versus Anthony Hamilton, December 9, 2016: Three years after his professional debut in the mixed martial arts world, the first-round win over the American Hamilton fetched Ngannou&#8217;s first Performance of the Night award. Given that he always wanted to try boxing before taking up mixed martial arts, The Predator finally received a chance to make a name for himself in the squared circle. Ngannou took on the undefeated WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury in a professional boxing match billed as &#8220;Battle of the Baddest&#8221; on October 28, 2023, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Ngannou was able to knock down Fury in the third round, taking the fight all the way to the scorecards, in which the judges awarded Fury the victory in a controversial split decision (95â€“94, 96â€“93, 94â€“95). According to CompuBox, Fury outlanded Ngannou 71 to 59 in total punches, while Ngannou outlanded Fury 37 to 32 in power punches. Now, he takes on Anthony Joshua in the second match of his pro-boxing career. WATCH: Insane 20-Second Knockout by Francis Ngannou Stuns UFC 249 Francis Ngannouâ€™s Contract Though Francis Ngannou and the UFC went their separate ways in late 2022, the issues broke out a few years ago. So problems arose with The Predator facing his second career loss at the hands of Stipe Miocic in 2018. Reportedly, UFC boss Dana White was very unhappy with the outcome because the franchise considered him one of the biggest stars in the making. The reversal resulted in Francis Ngannou waiting nearly three years to receive the next shot at the UFC Heavyweight championship. But the problems persisted despite him becoming a champion as he was given marching orders to defend his titles in August of that year. Given the short time gap, Ngannou requested that the fight be postponed to September, and finally, the second title defense came about in January of 2022. Additionally, The Predator had raised concerns regarding fighter&#8217;s pay and providing other benefits such as health insurance. The two sides disagreed with his contract with the franchise ending by December 2022. Finally, the UFC passed over his one-year matching rights clause. It rendered Francis Ngannou a free agent as a result. After B.J. Penn in 2004, he became the second only champion to move out of the fight promotions company. Francis Ngannou&#8217;s Deal with the PFL On May 16, 2023, it was announced that Ngannou had signed a multi-fight deal with the Professional Fighters League (PFL). He will be competing in their pay-per-view &#8220;super fight&#8221; division, while still being free to compete in other sports such as boxing. Ngannou also negotiated on behalf of his opponents, guaranteeing them to be paid at least $2 million. He will also be a part of PFL&#8217;s global advisory board, meant to advocate for fighters&#8217; interests, and an equity owner and chairman of the upcoming PFL Africa league. On February 22, 2024, it was announced that Ngannou would make his MMA return sometime this year against Renan Ferreira, the Heavyweight PFL winner of the PFL vs. Bellator event on February 24, 2024, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Francis Ngannouâ€™s Partnerships and Endorsements Ngannou hasÂ endorsedÂ Gym King Fight Division, CBD Research Labs,Â Cryo Pain Relief, and The Fight Game. Francis Ngannou&#8217;s relationship with Mike Tyson It was early in August 2023 when news came that Francis Ngannou would team up with the youngest Heavyweight champion in boxing history, Mike Tyson, to prepare him for the big fight against Tyson Fury. According to the former UFC Heavyweight champion, who always idolized the former Heavyweight champion, the two were already in talks since they first met in the latter&#8217;s podcast, Hotboxin with Mike Tyson. About their partnership, Mike Tyson said, &#8220;It&#8217;s no secret I back Ngannou 100 percent in this face-off of champions. He has one hard punch, and when it lands, it&#8217;s game over. I am looking forward to working with Ngannou and supporting his transition from the Octagon to the boxing ring.&#8221; Even though Francis Ngannou doesn&#8217;t have any real-time boxing experience except for his match against Tyson Fury, during his tenure with UFC and 100% Fight earlier, he built a formidable reputation as one of the planet&#8217;s foremost punchers. Francis Ngannouâ€™s Career Stats and Records Age: 37 years HEIGHT:Â 6&#8242; 4&#8243; WEIGHT:Â 250 lbs. REACH:Â 83&#8243; STANCE:Â Orthodox DOB:Â Sep 05, 1986 In boxing, Ngannou&#8217;s record reads, one fight, one loss. In UFC, it reads 14 fights, 12 wins, and two defeats. Eleven of his 12 victories came via TKO/KO/Submission, and his only defeats came through decisions. Francis Ngannou: Fighting Style Francis is predominantly a striker. He is perhaps one of the best boxers in the heavyweight division. Recently, he has also incorporated leg kicks in his game. He can chase the finish and counter his opponents comfortably. It is noteworthy that Ngannou is the hardest puncher in the UFC. Francis Ngannou: Achievements The fighter holds a stellar record ofÂ 17-3-0 in his MMA career and 0-1 in his boxing career. Ngannou has won five Performance of the Night bonuses against Anthony Hamilton, Andrei Arlovski, Curtis Blaydes, and Junior dos Santos. Ngannou&#8217;s knockout against Alistair Overeem earnedÂ him the Knockout of the Year Award. Francis Ngannou&#8217;s car collection and other luxuries For a sports celebrity with a net worth of $5 million, Francis Ngannou must have an enviable collection of automobiles in his garage. However, according to the website 21 Motoring, the jewels of his garage include the following: Rolls Royce Phantom VII: With a price tag of around $450,000, this luxury model&#8217;s 6.75-liter V12 engine produces 453 horsepower.

<h2>Who is Jon Jones?</h2>
Jon Jones is a former UFC light heavyweight champion and the current UFC heavyweight champion. The 37-year-old is the youngest fighter to ever win a UFC championship. 'Bones' won the UFC light heavyweight title at just 23 years of age. His MMA record now stands at 26-1-0 (1 NC).

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones was born on July 19, 1987, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">in Rochester, New York.  </span><span style="font-weight: 400">He is the second son of Arthur Jones Jr. &amp; Camille Jones. His father was a pastor at Mount Sinai Church of God in Christ in Binghamton, New York. His mother is no more. In 2017, she passed away at the age of 55 due to diabetes.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones’ father wanted him to follow his path instead of becoming a fighter. During an <a href="https://www.christianpost.com/news/jon-bones-jones-father-wanted-him-to-preach-not-join-ufc.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">interview with The Christian Post</a>, his father revealed that he even discouraged Jon Jones from becoming a fighter.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones has two brothers, Chandler Jones and Arthur Jones, who are both football players. Chandler Jones is a professional football player and the younger brother of Jon Jones. He played college football at Syracuse University before being drafted by the New England Patriots in 2012. He has since played for the Arizona Cardinals and is considered one of the best defensive ends in the NFL.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Arthur Jones is also a professional football player and the older brother of Jon Jones and Chandler Jones. Born on June 3, 1986, in Endicott, New York, Arthur played college football at Syracuse University and was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in 2010. He has also played for the Indianapolis Colts and the Washington Football Team.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones' brothers, Chandler and Arthur, have had a significant impact on his career. Growing up in a competitive household with two brothers who were already successful athletes, he was constantly motivated to improve his own athletic abilities. Chandler and Arthur have also provided support and guidance throughout Jon's career, helping him to stay focused and grounded.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones also had a sister, Carmen Jones, who passed away at the age of 18 due to a brain tumor.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones’ wife and children</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones’ is not married. However, many did mistake him and <strong>Jessie Moses</strong> for being a married couple owing to their long relationship and the fact that they eventually got engaged. Not much is known about Jessie Moses except that she was born on</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> 12 September 1987 to Sheila Ryan. She attended the same high school as Jon Jones, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Endicott High School in New York. She then went to </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Broome Community College in Binghamton, New York, for her degree in Political Science.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones and Jessie Moses started dating in high school. And after over a decade of dating, Jones proposed to Moses in Easter 2013 but never got married. And back in February 2022, Jon Jones publicly announced in a now-deleted tweet that his fiancée left him soon after his arrest in 2021. But the couple seem to have set their differences aside and gotten back together. Moses was by his side when Jones won the heavyweight title on his return at UFC 285.</span>

Carmen Nicole Jones, Olivia Haven Jones, and Leah Jones are the three children Jones shares with his ex-fiancée, Jessie Moses. <span style="font-weight: 400">There is no evidence whatsoever of Jon Jones being married.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Back in September 2021, Jon Jones was </span><span style="font-weight: 400">arrested due to a domestic violence case as he reportedly assaulted his </span><span style="font-weight: 400">fiancée Jessie Moses at the </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Caesars Palace</span><span style="font-weight: 400">. This was reported when the hotel security guard called 911 and it was reported that Jessie Moses was bleeding from the nose and the mouth. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Furthermore, upon being arrested, he was charged with </span><span style="font-weight: 400">misdemeanor battery domestic violence, and injuring or tampering with a vehicle. This was not the first time that Jones has been in trouble with the law, as he has a history of legal issues, including previous arrests for driving under the influence and hit-and-run incidents.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones' Net Worth 2024</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">As per several reports, Jon Jones is estimated to be worth somewhere between $10 Million-$15 Million as of 2024. He has earned around </span><span style="font-weight: 400">$14,300,000 from his UFC career. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">His biggest payout during his light heavyweight days was for his rematch with Daniel Cormier at UFC 217 which was around $1,830,000. That number nearly doubled for his heavyweight debut against Ciryl Gane at UFC 285 in March 2023. Jones earned a $2M base salary and $1.45M PPV share along with other bonuses to secure a paycheck worth a reported $3,542,000. Jones had also signed a new contract ahead of his heavyweight debut, which saw his base salary go from six digits to $2M at UFC 285.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones' career timeline</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones was a stand-out wrestler during high school. He even got his moniker, ‘Bones’ during his school days, owing to his slim frame. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">On August 9, 2008, Jon Jones made his UFC debut at UFC 87 facing <strong>Andre Gusmão</strong>, at the short notice of two weeks. In over a year and a quarter, Jones placed himself as an undefeated fighter with a perfect record of 9-0, until he fought <strong>Matt Hamil</strong> in December 2009, who handed Jones his first-ever loss. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, that served as the one and only loss ‘Bones’ has, and that too due to disqualification. Two years later, Jones faced Mauricio ‘Shogun’ Rua as a replacement for his training partner Rashad Evans who couldn’t fight on the scheduled mark owing to his knee injury. Jones defeated Rua by TKO in 3rd round and became the youngest-ever UFC champion at the age of 23.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, Jon Jones’ run in the UFC hasn’t been all glamorous and smooth. He has been suspended several times, given his controversial life outside the Octagon. Jones was expected to defend his title in May 2015 against <strong>Anthony Johnson</strong> at UFC 187 but was stripped of his title on April 28 in connection to his hit-and-run case where he allegedly crashed a pregnant woman and fled away from the scene. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Then, in 2016, when his rematch with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daniel-cormier/"><strong>Daniel Cormier</strong></a> was supposed to take place at UFC 200, Jones was removed from the bout by USADA for a potential doping violation and was suspended for one year. Two days after the announcement, Jones was stripped of his interim title, too.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Daniel Cormier rematch took place in 2017 instead, where Jon Jones defeated Cormier and re-captured the UFC Light Heavyweight Title. However, that win was short-lived, as USADA flagged Jones with a doping violation yet again. This forced the decision to be converted to no contest. As a result, the title was handed back to Daniel Cormier.</span>

<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1561575" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Untitled-design-39-1-15.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">Jon Jones then made a return in 2018 against <strong>Alexander Gustafsson</strong> for the vacant UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and won the bout via a 3rd round TKO. And from 2018 to 2020, Jones had a good run in the UFC, having 4 fights and winning all of them, until he got into a disagreement with Dana White in 2020.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">After a disagreement with White, Jon Jones vacated the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship and expressed his desire to move up to the heavyweight division and fight Francis Ngannou. However, according to Dana White, Jones asked for a sum on par with what <strong>Deontay Wilder</strong> made for his rematch with <strong>Tyson Fury</strong>, suggesting a paycheck of around $25 million-$30 million. After all the back and forth and a hiatus of over 3 years, Jon Jones made his heavyweight debut at UFC 285 against <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ciryl-gane/"><strong>Ciryl Gane</strong></a> for the vacant title.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones' Injury</b></h2>
Jon Jones' first-ever heavyweight title defense was set to be a legacy battle against two-tie heavyweight champion Stip Miocic. The event would have headlined the 2023 November PPV, UFC 295, at the Madison Square Garden. Unlucky for Jones, he tore his pectoral tendon in training in October, a few weeks out from the fight. Further tests showed that the UFC champion would require surgery and be out for at least eight months.

Dana White announced the same via social media and pit Serghei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall for an interim heavyweight title fight at UFC 295 as replacement. But the UFC boss never dropped the idea of Jones vs. Miocic and their fight has now been rescheduled for UFC 309 in November at Madison Square Garden.
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones contract</b></h2>
When Dana White announced Jon Jones' return with a heavyweight debut, he mentioned one other thing. At the UFC Vegas 67 post-fight press conference, the UFC CEO said Jones had signed an eight-fight deal in a new contract with the UFC. This meant Jones would likely finish his fighting career under Dana White's promotion.

The new contract also saw Jones earning a reported $2M as base salary on his return. His previous base salary was estimated to be in the ballpark of $500K. What's even more interesting was that Dana White jumped at an opportunity to cross-promote an MMA fight between Jon Jones and Tyson Fury, something he was not entertaining before. In fact, the pair even had a tiff over Jon Jones asking for boxing money (8-figure paychecks) to fight Francis Ngannou while the latter was the heavyweight champion.
<h2 style="text-align: left"><b>Jon Jones's partnerships and endorsements</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Jones had a number of deals with major brands such as Reebok, Nike, GAT Supplements, Monster Energy, and Gatorade.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Reebok terminated the deal with ‘Bones’ after his hit-and-run case. Similarly, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">Nike’s deal has been officially terminated after Jones’ brawl with Daniel Cormier. However, Jones maintained that Nike didn’t drop him. In fact, they wanted to keep him on board for the remainder of the contract but it was his decision to discontinue, and hence, he respectfully declined the deal.</span>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Â Who is Tyson Fury?</b></h2>
The man whom everyone in the boxing circuit regards as the 'Gypsy King' was born on the 12th of August in 1988. Tyson was <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/thelife/news/inside-the-comeback-story-of-tyson-fury-the-undefeated-gypsy-king-who-overcame-a-depression-and-shed-112-pounds-to-be-heavyweight-champion-of-the-world-twice/articleshow/74344114.cms">born</a> 3 months before schedule, coming in at a mere 1lb. His chances of survival were extremely low.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2105496" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0302154559h.jpg" alt="Tyson Fury" />

However, he survived. His father named him after the legendary Mike Tyson. The Englishman followed in his American namesake and <a href="https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/27680">father</a>'s footsteps into the boxing ring.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Tyson Fury's family and early life</strong></h2>
Tyson Fury's father, John Fury, was previously married to Amber Fury. They had four children - Tyson, his brother Shane Fury, a Heavyweight boxer, and Hugh Fury. The fourth child, Ramona Fury, sadly passed away a few months after her birth.

Tyson Fury's father, John Fury, was previously married to Amber Fury. They had four children - Tyson, his brother Shane Fury, a Heavyweight boxer, and Hugh Fury. The fourth child, Ramona Fury, sadly passed away a few months after her birth.

Through John Fury's second marriage to Chantal, who has Mauritian ancestry, Tyson Fury is a half-brother to Tommy Fury, Roman Fury, a Cruiserweight contender, and John Fury Jr., reportedly an amateur boxer.

'The Gypsy King' was born on 12th August 1988. He grew up in the Wythenshawe area of Manchester, England. From an early age, he showed an aptitude for boxing. Hailing from an Irish traveling family, and a long bloodline of fighters, some would say Tyson choosing the 'sweet science' as his profession was inevitable. He began boxing at the age of ten, thriving under the guidance of his father. With John Fury championing him, Tyson did quite well in his amateur career. He became the EU Junior Champion in May 2007 and ABA national champion in 2008, before turning professional at the age of 20.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Tyson Furyâ€™s wife and children</b></h2>
Tyson Fury and his wife, Paris Fury's fairytale romance, began during their teenage years when he was seventeen and she was fifteen. Finally, in 2008, roughly a year after they started going out, the future Heavyweight champion and Paris walked down the aisle together at the Catholic church in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, St. Peter in Chains.

During the last fifteen years of togetherness, the couple have become proud parents of four boys and three girls. Their eldest child is 13-year-old Venezuela. She is followed by Prince John James, who is eleven.

Born in July 2016, Prince Tyson II is the couple's third child. 5-year-old Valencia, Tyson Fury's second daughter, follows him. She would be turning six by December of this year. In 2019, The Gypsy King and Paris Fury welcomed their fifth child, their third son, Prince Adonis Amaziah, who is 4 years old.

Two months before the Deontay Wilder trilogy fight, Tyson Fury introduced his sixth child and third daughter, Athena, to the world. The youngest member of the Fury family turned two in August this year.

Last month, on September 18, Tyson and Paris Fury welcomed the birth of their seventh child, a baby boy. Early this month, the proud parents shared his name with the world - Prince Rico Paris Fury.
<p style="text-align: center"><b>Tyson Furyâ€™s net worth 2024</b></p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Tyson Furyâ€™s career timeline</b></h2>
Fury made his professional debut in December 2008. He took on Bela Gyongyosi in his first outing as a professional. The preliminary card bout ended with Fury dropping his Hungarian opponent in the first round with a lethal combination to the head and the body.

After winningÂ  English, British, and Commonwealth titles, Tyson Fury, with his rangy and unorthodox fighting style, reached the top of the heavyweight division in 2015 after defeating the 11-year unbeaten Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko to become the unified world heavyweight champion. However following his win over Klitschko, he struggled with depression forcing him to take a hiatus of three years.

He came back in action in 2018, notching up easy wins against Sefer Seferi and Francesco Pianeta. In the same year, he also drew a fight for the first time against<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/deontay-wilder/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Deontay Wilder</a>. However, his stupefying performance earned him a rematch. He won the WBC title after having bulldozed through Deontay Wilder in 2020. This saw him become a two-time world heavyweight champion.

Moreover, Fury added another spectacular victory to his resume by defeating Wilder in their highly anticipated trilogy fight in October 2021. After 10 rounds of war, 'The Gypsy King' finally put his rivalry with the 'Bronze Bomber' to rest via T/KO in the 11th round.

After beating Wilder, Fury demolished longtime WBC mandatory challenger <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dillian-whyte/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dillian Whyte</a> on April 23, 2022. And in December, he defended his WBC heavyweight title against Derek Chisora in a trilogy showdown.

'The Gypsy King' has amassed an astonishing record of 24 wins by T/KO in 34 professional fights.

Then came the mega clash between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou. This highly anticipated bout came months after fans and followers learned of the Cameroonian-American mixed martial artist's departure from UFC.

In a shocking display, Tyson was barely able to defeat <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/francis-ngannou/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Francis Ngannou</a> as the former was even made to taste the canvas by the MMA sensation. The crossover boxing bout made a huge dent in Fury's reputation, even though he secured a split-decision victory.

He is currently set to face Oleksandr Usyk for an undisputed heavyweight fight.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><span style="font-weight: 400">Â </span><b>Tyson Furyâ€™s Partnerships and Endorsements</b></h2>
Per <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/tyson-fury/?sh=4b6b3cd331d3">Forbes</a>, Fury earns a substantial amount through endorsements alone. One of his major sponsors has been <a href="https://sponsorpitch.com/properties/tyson-fury">Wow Hydrate</a>. However, Fury also has his line of <a href="https://tysonfuryofficialmerchandise.com/">merchandise</a> and energy drink called Furocity.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Tyson Furyâ€™s Career Stats and Record</b></h2>
Tyson Fury is an undefeated heavyweight champion. His boxing record stands at 34-0-1. He has a knockout ratio of 70.59%.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Â Tyson Furyâ€™s charity and foundation</b></h2>
Philanthropy comes to Tyson Fury as naturally as a jab or a hook. He is well known to open up his heart and wallet to the less fortunate and in need. Following his first fight against Deontay Wilder, Fury claimed to have <a href="https://talksport.com/sport/boxing/491322/tyson-fury-news-gypsy-king-worth-deontay-wilder-purse-charity-rematch/">donated</a> his entire fight purse to charitable organizations in the UK. This was because he wanted to direct the finances toward the construction of homes for alcohol and drug addicts.

In another incident in 2022, after fight negotiations with Anthony Joshua collapsed, Furyâ€™s promoter Frank Warren had to pay up <span style="font-weight: 400">after losing a bet against the â€™Gypsy Kingâ€™. Fury was convinced that Joshua wouldnâ€™t sign the dotted line and ended up staking Â£10,000. Eventually, he ended up donating his winnings from the bet to a charity called DEBRA which looks after people suffering from Epidermolysis Bullosa - a painful genetic skin blister condition.</span>

Tyson Fury Boxing &#8211; Tyson Fury v Deontay Wilder &#8211; WBC Heavyweight Title &#8211; T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S. &#8211; October 9, 2021 Tyson Fury makes his entrance before the fight REUTERS/Steve Marcus Tyson Fury Net Worth 2024, Career, Age, Wife, Record &amp; More Â Who is Tyson Fury? The man whom everyone in the boxing circuit regards as the &#8216;Gypsy King&#8217; was born on the 12th of August in 1988. Tyson was born 3 months before schedule, coming in at a mere 1lb. His chances of survival were extremely low. However, he survived. His father named him after the legendary Mike Tyson. The Englishman followed in his American namesake and father&#8216;s footsteps into the boxing ring. Tyson Fury&#8217;s family and early life Tyson Fury&#8217;s father, John Fury, was previously married to Amber Fury. They had four children &#8211; Tyson, his brother Shane Fury, a Heavyweight boxer, and Hugh Fury. The fourth child, Ramona Fury, sadly passed away a few months after her birth. Tyson Fury&#8217;s father, John Fury, was previously married to Amber Fury. They had four children &#8211; Tyson, his brother Shane Fury, a Heavyweight boxer, and Hugh Fury. The fourth child, Ramona Fury, sadly passed away a few months after her birth. Through John Fury&#8217;s second marriage to Chantal, who has Mauritian ancestry, Tyson Fury is a half-brother to Tommy Fury, Roman Fury, a Cruiserweight contender, and John Fury Jr., reportedly an amateur boxer. &#8216;The Gypsy King&#8217; was born on 12th August 1988. He grew up in the Wythenshawe area of Manchester, England. From an early age, he showed an aptitude for boxing. Hailing from an Irish traveling family, and a long bloodline of fighters, some would say Tyson choosing the &#8216;sweet science&#8217; as his profession was inevitable. He began boxing at the age of ten, thriving under the guidance of his father. With John Fury championing him, Tyson did quite well in his amateur career. He became the EU Junior Champion in May 2007 and ABA national champion in 2008, before turning professional at the age of 20. Tyson Furyâ€™s wife and children Tyson Fury and his wife, Paris Fury&#8217;s fairytale romance, began during their teenage years when he was seventeen and she was fifteen. Finally, in 2008, roughly a year after they started going out, the future Heavyweight champion and Paris walked down the aisle together at the Catholic church in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, St. Peter in Chains. During the last fifteen years of togetherness, the couple have become proud parents of four boys and three girls. Their eldest child is 13-year-old Venezuela. She is followed by Prince John James, who is eleven. Born in July 2016, Prince Tyson II is the couple&#8217;s third child. 5-year-old Valencia, Tyson Fury&#8217;s second daughter, follows him. She would be turning six by December of this year. In 2019, The Gypsy King and Paris Fury welcomed their fifth child, their third son, Prince Adonis Amaziah, who is 4 years old. Two months before the Deontay Wilder trilogy fight, Tyson Fury introduced his sixth child and third daughter, Athena, to the world. The youngest member of the Fury family turned two in August this year. Last month, on September 18, Tyson and Paris Fury welcomed the birth of their seventh child, a baby boy. Early this month, the proud parents shared his name with the world &#8211; Prince Rico Paris Fury. Tyson Furyâ€™s net worth 2024 Money has never been at the top of Fury&#8217;s mind. However, no one in their right mind will turn incoming big bucks down. Fury&#8217;s net worth is estimated to be $65 million in 2023. Here are some of his noteworthy career earnings:  OpponentÂ  Total Purse  Derek Chisora 2 $12 Million  Wladimir Klitschko $7 Million  Deontay Wilder 1 $10 million  Deontay Wilder 2 $25 Million  Deontay Wilder 3 $27 Million  Derek Chisora 3 $25 Million  Francis Ngannou $50 Million  Furyâ€™s other sources of income include brand endorsements and investments in various business ventures. Tyson Furyâ€™s career timeline Fury made his professional debut in December 2008. He took on Bela Gyongyosi in his first outing as a professional. The preliminary card bout ended with Fury dropping his Hungarian opponent in the first round with a lethal combination to the head and the body. After winningÂ  English, British, and Commonwealth titles, Tyson Fury, with his rangy and unorthodox fighting style, reached the top of the heavyweight division in 2015 after defeating the 11-year unbeaten Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko to become the unified world heavyweight champion. However following his win over Klitschko, he struggled with depression forcing him to take a hiatus of three years. He came back in action in 2018, notching up easy wins against Sefer Seferi and Francesco Pianeta. In the same year, he also drew a fight for the first time against Deontay Wilder. However, his stupefying performance earned him a rematch. He won the WBC title after having bulldozed through Deontay Wilder in 2020. This saw him become a two-time world heavyweight champion. Moreover, Fury added another spectacular victory to his resume by defeating Wilder in their highly anticipated trilogy fight in October 2021. After 10 rounds of war, &#8216;The Gypsy King&#8217; finally put his rivalry with the &#8216;Bronze Bomber&#8217; to rest via T/KO in the 11th round. After beating Wilder, Fury demolished longtime WBC mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte on April 23, 2022. And in December, he defended his WBC heavyweight title against Derek Chisora in a trilogy showdown. &#8216;The Gypsy King&#8217; has amassed an astonishing record of 24 wins by T/KO in 34 professional fights. Then came the mega clash between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou. This highly anticipated bout came months after fans and followers learned of the Cameroonian-American mixed martial artist&#8217;s departure from UFC.

(Photo by Justin Setterfield/Getty Images) In a shocking display, Tyson was barely able to defeat Francis Ngannou as the former was even made to taste the canvas by the MMA sensation. The crossover boxing bout made a huge dent in Fury&#8217;s reputation, even though he secured a split-decision victory. He is currently set to face Oleksandr Usyk for an undisputed heavyweight fight. Â Tyson Furyâ€™s Partnerships and Endorsements Per Forbes, Fury earns a substantial amount through endorsements alone. One of his major sponsors has been Wow Hydrate. However, Fury also has his line of merchandise and energy drink called Furocity. Tyson Furyâ€™s Career Stats and Record Tyson Fury is an undefeated heavyweight champion. His boxing record stands at 34-0-1. He has a knockout ratio of 70.59%. Â Tyson Furyâ€™s charity and foundation Philanthropy comes to Tyson Fury as naturally as a jab or a hook. He is well known to open up his heart and wallet to the less fortunate and in need. Following his first fight against Deontay Wilder, Fury claimed to have donated his entire fight purse to charitable organizations in the UK. This was because he wanted to direct the finances toward the construction of homes for alcohol and drug addicts. In another incident in 2022, after fight negotiations with Anthony Joshua collapsed, Furyâ€™s promoter Frank Warren had to pay up after losing a bet against the â€™Gypsy Kingâ€™. Fury was convinced that Joshua wouldnâ€™t sign the dotted line and ended up staking Â£10,000. Eventually, he ended up donating his winnings from the bet to a charity called DEBRA which looks after people suffering from Epidermolysis Bullosa &#8211; a painful genetic skin blister condition. Tyson Fury also has his foundation called the Tyson Fury Foundation.
