Jermaine Franklin Net Worth

In the aftermath of Franklin’s fight with Anthony Joshua on April 1st, we have decided to take a deep dive into the career earnings and net worth of Jermaine Franklin. It’s fair to say that the American heavyweight boxer has made a decent living so far from the sport and will continue to do so going forward.

As of July 2023, Jermaine Franklin’s net worth is said to be around £500,000. ‘989 Assassin’ isn’t a household name in boxing circles, but he is a fringe world level heavyweight and made a name for himself in his last two fights against Dillian Whyte and Anthony Joshua respectively.

A fight with Joshua guarantees you a career-high payday, which is what Jermaine Franklin will have received for his last fight in the English capital earlier this year. Going forward, ‘989 Assassin’ is sure to earn more lucrative purses, given the fact he put up a great fight against both Whyte and ‘AJ’.

The majority of the 29-year-old’s income of course comes from boxing.  He is a decent heavyweight and has also notched up some credible wins in the United States against fellow American fighters.

Jermaine Franklin Boxing Career Earnings

Jermaine Franklin has been a professional boxer since he made his debut back in 2015. Since then, Franklin has had 21 more professional fights, earning more money as his career has progressed. Particularly last time out against Anthony Joshua where he earned a career high payday.

Having gradually moved up to fringe world level, ‘989 Assassin’ has also began to earn bigger paycheques in recent fights. Overall, Jermaine Franklin’s total career earnings inside the ring equates to roughly £2 million. Compared to other heavyweight boxers this is a small amount, but for a man who is only 29-years-old and who is only beginning to get the big fights now, it isn’t too bad at all.

Franklin’s career highest purse came last time out as he faced Anthony Joshua in London in April. Franklin was reportedly paid £800,000 for the fight, which is double his previous career high pay-day.

Prior to his last fight against the former two-time world heavyweight champion, Franklin’s biggest purse was for his bout with Dillian Whyte last November. Franklin was paid a lucrative £400,000 for the Whyte fight – the second biggest purse of his career by quite some margin.
