Anthony Joshua v Jake Paul: Net worths, what cars do they drive and their multi-million pound mansions

The former two-time heavyweight champion meets the YouTube star in a Netflix-backed bout in Miami - which will take place in the early hours of Saturday, December 20 UK time. The fight was confirmed last month, with reports suggesting a purse of around £140m will be split between the pair.

Paul’s team turned to Joshua after plans for an exhibition bout with Gervonta Davis collapsed. Allegations of domestic abuse against Davis forced them into a late rethink, and Joshua agreed to step in with just over a month’s notice.

With fight night approaching, attention has shifted beyond the ring - and their personal lives could hardly be more different.

Cars

Joshua’s taste is relatively low-key, at least compared to his opponent.

He owns a customised Range Rover SV Autobiography Dynamic worth around £150,000, which he bought before his 2017 fight with Wladimir Klitschko. He has also spoken fondly about a £93,000 Jaguar XJR he purchased in 2016, describing it as “a car that only certain people know about”.

Joshua has also been seen driving a £40,000 Audi A3 S-Line. It’s smart, but hardly the kind of car that turns heads.

Paul’s garage is a different story; the American owns a Ferrari SF90 Spyder valued at roughly £456,000, two Rolls-Royces, a Lamborghini Huracan Performante and a Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600. He has also been spotted in a Tesla Model X and a custom-wrapped Ford Focus RS.

Homes

Despite his wealth, Joshua has kept his living arrangements relatively modest.

Until last year, the 36-year-old was believed to be living with his mother in a £175,000 flat he bought for her in North London. He has previously rented a £20,000-a-week mansion and is thought to have since moved out, but only after making sure his mum was settled.

“I didn’t want to leave my mum alone,” he said. “I wanted to make sure that her foundations were strong. For me, that’s freedom. Knowing no matter where I am in the world, mum’s happy and taken care of.”

Joshua has not revealed where he now lives. Much of his wealth has gone into property instead, including a £150m commercial portfolio with buildings across London and a former BP business estate near his home town of Watford.

By contrast, Paul has a £13m home in the Caribbean, moving to Puerto Rico from California. He bought the mansion from baseball legend Yadier Molina, and has pumped £1.6m into renovating the property.

The mansion has eight bedrooms, eight bathrooms, a luxury swimming pool and is so big it even has a lift.

Love lives

Joshua has always kept his private life quiet.

He has a son, JJ, born in 2015 with former partner Nicole Osbourne, but the pair have never appeared publicly together. Over the years, Joshua has been linked with Maya Jama, Laura Woods, Cara Delevingne and Bella Hadid, though none of those rumours were confirmed.

He is believed to be single. Speaking to Louis Theroux in 2023, Joshua said: “I’ve had girlfriends. I could meet them in the local supermarket or at the petrol station, anywhere.”

Paul’s love life is far more public. He has previously dated social media personalities Julia Rose and Tana Mongeau. Since 2023, he has been in a high-profile relationship with Dutch speed skating world champion Jutta Leerdam.

The pair met after Paul messaged her on Instagram and announced their engagement in March. Speaking on YouTube, Paul said: “She’s a world champion and I’ve just been so amazed by her work ethic. She’s one of the most pure-hearted human beings I’ve met.”

Net worths

Joshua hasn’t fought since his knockout loss to Daniel Dubois over a year ago, but his finances remain strong. His career earnings reportedly climbed to £219m after that bout.

He also has endorsement deals with brands including Under Armour, Hugo Boss, Jaguar Land Rover and DAZN. A reported £70m payday for facing Paul would push his wealth even higher.

Paul is doing just fine himself too. His net worth is estimated at around £62m, much of it built through YouTube. Boxing has added significantly to that figure, with his exhibition fight against Mike Tyson last year reportedly earning him £31m.

Win or lose, both men are about to cash in again.
