Buckled up for the upcoming Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn event at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London? Well, there is another undercard that would be interesting to watch. Anthony Yarde is set to face Lyndon Arthur in their trilogy fight this Saturday, April 26. Yarde previously lost to Arthur in their 2020 bout but won the rematch in 2021 by KO in the fourth round. This time, it will be a 10-round contest, with no titles on the line from either side. Though, it is still a high-stakes fight. Because the winner would get a shot at major world titles in the light heavyweight division.
To broadcast on DAZN, this match is one of the most competitive in British boxing for this entire year. So, it wouldn‘t be surprising to mention that Yarde will be earning some big bucks on Saturday night. Speaking of which, the 33-year-old is currently at his career prime. Standing at a record of 26-3-0 (24 KOs), he has fought several high-profile bouts. Including his 2023 showdown against Artur Beterbiev. Naturally, his purses have been among top-tier British boxers.
While you gear up to enjoy his ring energy just a few days from now, here’s everything you want to know about The Beast from the East’s net worth and boxing purse in history, as well as in 2025.
Anthony Yarde’s 2025 net worth
As of last year, Anthony Yarde’s net worth was estimated to fall around $4.2 million, according to Shalina. Since then, there are no significant updates that suggest a drastic change. It is therefore safe to say that that’s where he’s currently at too. His earnings come from high-profile bouts (fight purses and PPV revenue), which are his primary source of income, or you could say “salary.” However, the Londoner also earns through endorsement deals with sports brands. Though, the specifics aren’t available.
Apart from boxing, Yarde has also kept diversified investments in real estate and entrepreneurial ventures. He even has financial advisors in place to help him with managing his financial portfolio. So, one could say that despite the volatility of an athlete’s career, the boxer has made efforts to approach wealth-building strategically.
Yarde also launched AY Promotions, which co-promoted his 2024 Vilcans fight at the Copper Box Arena in London. This can be considered a long-term investment. Just like other big fighters like Gervonta Davis and Canelo Alvarez have done.
Though, it is also important to note that the figures are not definitive. That’s because net worths that rely on public sources can fluctuate greatly with fight outcomes, injuries, or market changes. Whatever his net worth may be right now could be more or less after his next fight. It keeps changing. So, it’s all about his fight purses then. And here’s what his purses usually look like.
How much does Anthony Yarde earn? Boxing fight purse & salary
Yarde is a ranked boxer with all four sanctioning bodies. And promoters like Boxxer and Queensberry appreciate his ability to sell more tickets and attract viewers. As a knockout artist with a 92% KO ratio, Yarde is a draw in the UK. Which translates to fans wanting to watch him fight and, therefore, higher purses.
Usually, Yarde’s earnings per fight fall between $200K and $750K, depending on the particular event’s profile. If the bouts are PPV-heavy, like the upcoming trilogy match with Arthur, his earning potential exceeds even $1 million. To get a better idea, let’s have a look at the boxer’s recent purse earnings.
In his January 2023 bout against Artur Beterbiev, Yarde earned a guaranteed purse of $350K, as reported by Sports Paedia. The fight was high-profile, with Beterbiev’s WBC, IBF, and WBO light heavyweight titles at stake. The bout happened at Wembley Arena, and there could’ve been additional income from pay-per-view revenue and fight week incentives. If estimated, his total earnings could have reached $400,000. Although, that is for if he had won. He lost via eight-round TKO, leaving that possibility out of the way. Beterbiev earned up to $550K in this fight, says National World.
Then again, in his last match-off, Yarde had fought Ralfs Vilcans in October 2024. For the 10-round light heavyweight bout at Copper Box Arena in London, he’d earned up to $200K. That was from a total purse of $250K. So, Yarde was the one to receive a significant share in the split. Naturally, because it was his comeback fight after a 8-month layoff.
Lastly, his upcoming bout against Arthur will earn him a whopping guaranteed $700K. The figure is higher than the previous bouts due to the PPV nature of the event, which will stream on a major DAZN PPV in the UK. Plus, the trilogy only adds to the domestic appeal. According to Boxing News, Yarde’s total earnings could even surpass $1 million after the pay-per-view revenue share.
To put it into perspective, Yarde is actually well-paid for a non-champion in the light heavyweight division. Though his earnings are below those of global stars like Beterbiev or Dmitry Bivol. But then again, they have titles. And that is what Yarde is striving for too. If he wins the upcoming bout against Lyndon Arthur, just like he did in 2021, he would get a shot at the world titles. Then, if he becomes a world champion, higher future purses await for him.
