Naoya Inoue

Naoya Inoue is one of the most dominant lower-weight fighters in modern boxing, with estimated career earnings of more than $102 million. The Japanese superstar became a global attraction through his undisputed title reigns and major fights against Nonito Donaire, Stephen Fulton and Junto Nakatani.

Inoue reportedly earned career-high paydays of around $25 million against David Picasso and $20 million against Nakatani as his global profile rapidly expanded. His earnings have grown from modest purses in Japan to becoming one of the highest-paid fighters outside the heavyweight division.
