Widely regarded as the best light-heavyweight fighter on the planet, here at SportsLens we have taken a deep dive into the boxing career of Artur Beterbiev. This includes Beterbiev’s net worth, career earnings, biggest fight purse and his endorsement deals.
Artur Beterbiev Net Worth
Artur Beterbiev is no stranger to a big fight now, that is for sure. He has shared a ring with the likes of Joe Smith Jr, Callum Smith, Anthony Yarde, Marcus Browne and Oleksandr Gvozdyk, to name but a few opponents. Having had some of these huge fights in the past, it’s safe to say that Beterbiev is no stranger to a big payday.
The 38-year-old is one of the biggest names in the light-heavyweight division, as well as being the pride of Russian boxing right now. The unified WBC, IBF & WBO world light-heavyweight champion is comfortably one of the highest earners in the division. With his streak of sensational knockouts it’s no surprise to see that Beterbiev has earned a fortune in his career.
As of January 2024, it is reported that Artur Beterbiev’s net worth is roughly $6 million (source: All Famous Birthdays).
This figure might be slightly lower than boxing fans expected, given the fact that he has competed in nine consecutive world title fights and is one of the most ferocious boxers in the world outside of the heavyweights.
Beterbiev’s net worth will have been heavily enhanced in recent year by his boxing career and sponsors. His main earner is of course when he steps through the ropes and into the ring. Outside of the ring, the Russian boxer has several sponsorship deals too. More on Beterbiev’s endorsement deals a bit later on.
A $6 million net worth for a man who has been at the top of the light-heavyweight division for a few years now is totally fair. As Beterbiev enters the twilight of his career, he will be keen to have a few more massive paydays before he hangs his gloves up.

Artur Beterbiev Career Earnings
Artur Beterbiev’s biggest fight purse to date is when he earned $1.6 million for his last fight against Callum Smith. Beterbiev won the fight against Smith by devastating knockout in just the seventh round of the contest. The boxing betting apps had favored Beterbiev to win via knockout, but his performance was even more emphatic than fans anticipated.
Prior to the Smith fight, Beterbiev’s biggest payday was for his unification clash with Joe Smith Jr. Beterbiev reportedly received a purse of around $1.5m for that fight, which he won via impressive KO inside just two rounds.
His third largest pay day came in his bout with Marcus Browne back in December 2021. Beterbiev won the fight via late stoppage and was paid around $773,500 for the fight as a minimum.
Considering the Russian mauler is arguably the biggest name in the light-heavyweight division and is one of the most concussive punchers in the entire sport of boxing, he certainly doesn’t have to worry where the next paycheque is coming from. He is a prize fighter. A good one at that too.

However, he has had 20 fights and has been pro since 2013. 20 fights in 10 years works out at just less than two a year.
