Fury claims to have lost $150 million because Joshua was knocked out by Dubois

Tyson Fury, the “King of the Gangsters” of boxing, could not hide his disappointment after witnessing Anthony Joshua being knocked out by Daniel Dubois in the fifth round at Wembley (England) on the evening of September 21. Fury angrily declared that Joshua’s defeat cost him the opportunity to receive a huge sum of up to 150 million USD.

Immediately after the match, Fury turned to his team members and said indignantly: “Listen, that loss cost me $150 million, it was terrible!”. A friend of Fury tried to comfort him, saying that he could still fight Joshua, but Fury replied: “Of course not, he’s done.”

The Joshua-Fury fight has been long-awaited, with the potential to bring huge earnings to both men. However, after Joshua’s defeat to Dubois, plans for the confrontation could go up in smoke.

Fury added: “Turki, you better pay me now!”, referring to Saudi Arabian promoter Turki Al-Sheikh, who is behind many big events in boxing.

Despite being knocked down three times before Dubois knocked him out in the fifth round, Joshua remained resilient and said he would not retire. “I was calm and very professional, respectful of my opponent. I made a lot of mistakes and faced a sharp opponent. But I will be back.”

Matchroom Sport promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed that Joshua will rematch Dubois: “Joshua needs a break, but he’s confident he can beat Dubois. 2025 will be a big year for Joshua, whether it’s a rematch with Dubois or against someone else.”

For Dubois, the victory over Joshua helped him affirm his position in the heavyweight boxing world. This was the biggest victory of the career of the 27-year-old boxer, who holds the IBF heavyweight title. “I am fighting for all the glory. I want to reach my full potential and reach the top of this sport .”

The rematch between Joshua and Dubois is expected to take place in 2025, with Dubois’ victory opening the door for him to challenge the winner of the rematch between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk scheduled to take place in Saudi Arabia in December 2024.
