It acts as the first in a three-fight deal with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Fury boasted about signing a package which blows Cristiano Ronaldo’s £62million-a-year Al-Nassr contract out of the water.

He described it as “the biggest boxing deal ever” and his US promoter Bob Arum claimed it was worth $200MILLION (£165m).

The hat-trick of bouts start against Ngannou and end with a double header over Usyk.

SunSport understands Fury will make £65m for his boxing debut in the Middle East.

It surpasses his highest career payday, believed to be around £26m for his knockout over Dillian Whyte, 35, in April 2022.

Meanwhile, Ngannou, 37, is set to take home £8m having walked out on the UFC to pursue the lucrative boxing switch.

Fury, 35, has already signed an agreement with Usyk, 36, to meet in the heavyweight division’s first four-belt unification.

From the £165m Arum announced Fury will make, £100m of that is set to come against the Ukrainian.

The deal includes a rematch meaning the WBC champion is line for a pair of £50m paydays for the historic bouts.

Despite the mass fortunes coming Fury’s way, he would have to go some way to topping Floyd Mayweather’s earnings.

Mayweather banked close to £600m for his wins over Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor.
