Anthony Joshua, Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou were joined in Riyadh by Cristiano Ronaldo and Turki Alalshikh
It was a rare joint appearance by Joshua — said to be worth £200million — and his £125million rival Fury.
Their combined fortunes are just over half the estimated £600million amassed by Ronaldo.
Meanwhile, Alalshikh, dubbed His Excellency for his ability to tie-up fight deals, is worth an unconfirmed £70million while Ngannou is the pauper of the group at £5million.
A boxing source said: “This is literally a billion dollar picture.
He posted online: “I want the winner after I smash the rabbit.”
Alalshikh also teased an upcoming project with Ronaldo, who is the highest-paid footballer in history following his move to Saudi club Al-Nassr in 2022.

The Portuguese megastar has a reported £173million salary, plus multiple deals with sponsors including Armani and Tag Heuer.
AJ — who has said he wants to become a billionaire — is raking in about £10million a fight, and the bankable star enjoys a string of commercial tie-ups.

Fury’s earnings rocketed when he beat then-world champ Wladimir Klitshcko in 2015.
The Gypsy King now commands huge purses for each fight, with claims he will bank about £100million for the Usyk showdown.
Cameroon-born Ngannou was reportedly paid about £500,000 for his last UFC heavyweight bout – but his earnings have soared since he switched to boxing.
He knocked Fury down in their fight last October before losing on points.
