Tyson Fury is set to make his pro-wrestling in-ring debut when he meets Braun Strowman at the upcoming WWE Crown Jewel pay-per-view event.
The Daily Mail reports that Fury will reportedly earn £11.9 million ($15m) for the match. Alexa McCarthy of Talk Sport noted that it’s in the ballpark of that estimate.
