The famous Conor McGregor returned to Octagon for many years since his dramatic defeat for light champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov. Despite losing in his last two professional matches, Conor McGregor is still a household name. He remains one of the biggest attractions in mixed martial arts.
One of the richest fighters in the world, McGregor, has 21 wins from 25 professional matches. He returned against Cerrone “Cowboy” which was popular on January 16. For this match, he returned to Las Vegas in an effort to get his MMA career back to his track.
The battle that was sold out with cowboy was the latest in a series of large fees that made Conor one of the richest athletes on this planet. What is the famous value? Let’s find out what Conor McGregor’s clean wealth ahead of the Donald Cerrone battle.
What is Conor McGregor’s Net Worth?
Since its debut seven years ago, Crumlin, which is best, helped MMA enter the mainstream with a combination of personality and talent. He gathered his wealth by leading the most significant UFC events in history.
In the last two years, McGregor has been involved in many disputes both inside and outside the ring. However, the controversy does not affect the bank account. For example, for his match with Khabib, he received a salary of $ 30 million.
During his famous career, Conor managed to produce around $ 235. However, to find out his true net worth, we need to take into account taxes. At present, the most feared Irish fighters are worth $ 120 million.
How Conor Made His Money?
McGregor became the headline of five different UFC events. Every appearance attracts a lot of attention to MMA. His ability to give so many exercise exposure helps him become the highest paid warrior in mixed martial arts. Last year, he got $ 9.5 million from the fight alone. Michael Bisping, the highest paid MMA, produced $ 2.5 million less.
Outside UFC, Conor’s biggest payday came when he faced Floyd Mayweather on the boxing ring, in August 2017. Although he failed to win a round in the match, he still brought more money than some of us would get in our lives. For ten rounds, McGregor received $ 100 million. He also made money through his reebok sponsors, public appearance, and whiskey business.
How McGregor Compares to Other Athletes?
Conor’s future is determined. Whether he succeeded in his opponent or not, he would get tens of millions from the right to pay per show. However, Conor’s wealth is still meaningless when compared to several top recipients in the world of sports.
Tiger Woods, which is at the top of the list of the richest active athletes in the world is worth $ 800 million. Floyd Mayweather and LeBron James, who took the 2nd and 3rd positions in the list, each worth $ 560 and $ 480 million. Conor may look rich outside of our wildest dreams, but he still has a long way to go beyond this athlete and become the richest athlete on this planet.
