Everything you need to know about the career and life of Liam ‘Beefy’ Smith. This includes Liam Smith’s net worth, career earnings, biggest fight purses and endorsement deals.
Liam Smith Net Worth
Liam Smith is no stranger to a super-fight, that is for sure. He has shared a ring with the likes of Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, Chris Eubank Jr twice and Jaime Munguia. Having had some of these huge fights in the past, it’s safe to say that Liam Smith is no stranger to a big payday.
Smith is a big name in UK boxing circles, but isn’t on the level that the likes of Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua or former foe Chris Eubank Jr are on. That being said, he is worth a fortune and has made millions throughout his long and successful boxing career.
As of today, it is reported that Liam Smith’s net worth is roughly £4 million (source: Essentially Sports).
Having boxed all his life, the 35-year-old will have earned a lot of money from the sport. His fights with Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Chris Eubank Jr are of course his biggest purses to date, but more on that later.
Smith’s net worth will have been heavily enhanced in recent years by his fruitful boxing career. His main earner is of course when he steps through the ropes, but he also earns some extra cash through various endorsements. Is it any wonder that his net worth is as much as it is? Fair play to him.
A £4 million net worth for a man who comes from a poor area in Liverpool is quite an achievement. If you’d have offered Liam Smith a net worth of £4 million when he was a kid, I’m sure he would have taken it. Without question.
The same can be said for his brother Callum Smith. Not to mention his two other former boxing brothers – Paul and Stephen. Boxing runs in the Smith family.
