In one interview, it&#8217;s $100 million, and in another interview, it&#8217;s $200 million. I would say [he&#8217;s] making over $100[million] Ngannou &amp; Usyk.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/04\/13\/76156999-12592959-image-a-8_1696421249100.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Eddie Hearn has claimed Tyson Fury is closer to receiving $100million for his fights with\u00a0Francis Ngannou and Oleksandr Usyk<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/04\/13\/76156997-12592959-image-a-9_1696421251440.jpg\" height=\"405\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>On Friday it was announced that Fury and Usyk have agreed terms to put all the world titles on the line over the winter period<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;<span>It&#8217;s probably 30 &amp; 70 and 30 &amp; 80, but I&#8217;ve heard there&#8217;s a rematch clause, whatever happens.

It&#8217;s not like fat &amp; old-looking Fury has an ambition to start fighting the killers in the division that would take advantage of his poor physical condition, lack of activity, and his rapidly advancing age.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;At this point, Fury is just out for the easy money for what is essentially a farewell retirement tour.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Either the Gypsy King or\u00a0Usyk will become the\u00a0first undisputed heavyweight champion since 1999 and the first in the four-belt era when they take to the ring.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/04\/13\/76156957-12592959-image-a-10_1696421255947.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Cameroonian-French Francis Ngannou will fight the Gypsy King on\u00a0October 28 in Saudi Arabia<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/04\/13\/76156995-12592959-image-a-11_1696421258616.jpg\" height=\"952\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Fury had previously shut down all talks of an undisputed bout with Usyk just a week prior<\/p>\n<p>Fury previously told Mail Sport: &#8216;Nope, I am not interested in fighting Usyk.
