It is understood the British fighter would pocket £12m an amount higher that what Brock Lesnar earns in a year. The Crown Jewel event will also see former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez in action when he fights on a different platform against his rival Lesnar. Fury in a recent comments suggested his much anticipated rematch with WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder could be in doubt.The 31-year-old was asked whether his WWE career will affect his rematch with the Bronze Bomber, he said: "There's a hell of a chance of that," adding, "Who knows what lies beneath? Maybe Velasquez, maybe Lesnar." Wilder will take on Luis Ortiz on November 23rd and the winner will be on the cards to fight number contender, Fury who is currently making cool cash from wrestling.
