Lennox Lewis tops annual list of highest-paid boxers
In 2022 it looked like the boxer’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Saturday (December 21) that Lewis is the highest-paid boxer in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $60 million lead over his closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The British boxer has an estimated net worth of $275 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Lewis Burger” chain) in London, a Football Team (the “London Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderlewis - UK), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Lennox) and a fashion line called “Lennox Lewis Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Lennox fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
