  "account": "Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury are set to fight in Cardiff on December 11, creating what could be the richest fight in British boxing history. The £150m ($198m) prize pot generated by the bout will be split evenly between the two boxers, with each expected to receive £75m ($99m). This would be significantly higher than their previous career-best purses, which were around £65m ($85m) for a single fight. Joshua had previously stated that he would only fight in Britain, as he believes British boxing gave him everything and changed his life. The fight is expected to be the final bout for both fighters, as they are now in the latter stages of their careers.",
