Gypsy King suffered his first defeat in his professional career in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, after his Ukrainian opponent was crowned the undisputed heavyweight champion.
Usik secured a score by judges, but despite the outcome, the two fighters are set for a record payment.
Even though the final figure has not yet been confirmed. Promotor Bob Arum suggested earlier that Fury could earn more than 90m euros to participate in the historic match.
That said, tax and national insurance laws in the United Kingdom can see a large part of that amount lost.
According to Stocklytics, Fury would have to pay over 50m euros in income tax and about 2.5m euros in national security if he would earn over 100m euros from the boxing match.
That would leave it with a total price fund of just over 55m euros.
