British heavyweight boxing star Anthony Joshua has relocated his £150 million business empire from the United Kingdom to Dubai, according to newly filed corporate documents confirming his residency in the United Arab Emirates.
Filings linked to the former world champion indicate that several of his business interests have been moved to the Gulf state, marking a significant shift in the financial base of the athlete widely regarded as one of Britain’s most commercially successful sports figures.
The move confirms that Joshua has formally established residency in the UAE, with Dubai now serving as the central hub for his corporate operations and brand management.
Joshua, who has built a vast commercial portfolio through endorsements, promotional ventures and investments alongside his boxing career, has increasingly spent time in the Middle East in recent years, where the region has become a growing centre for major sporting events and athlete partnerships.
The relocation highlights a broader trend of high-profile athletes and entrepreneurs shifting business structures to international financial hubs such as Dubai, which has attracted global investors with its tax policies and expanding sports industry.
Neither Joshua nor his management team have publicly commented on the filings as of the time of reporting.
The 34-year-old boxer, a former unified heavyweight champion, remains one of the biggest global draws in boxing, having held multiple world titles during his career and headlined some of the sport’s highest-grossing events.
