Conor McGregor

If you’re like me you are eagerly awaiting the boxing match Saturday between undefeated boxing champion Floyd Mayweather and UFC superstar Conor McGregor. Both parties have the opportunity to make a pretty penny from the event but how much?

McGregor has been boasting about it for months that this single fight has given him the opportunity to double his net worth (or more) overnight. Is that true? What is Conor McGregor’s net worth and how much does he stand to gain from the upcoming fight?

About Conor McGregor

Conor McGregor is one of the most famous UFC fighters out there right now. That is because of two things: McGregor is a great fighter and he’s got an attitude to match.

McGregor was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1988. His Irish heritage has been a huge part of his career and something he’s never been ashamed of. He and his long-time girlfriend, Dee Devlin, are huge celebrities in Ireland as well. In fact, there is even a mural of them on O’Connell Street.

In 2007 McGregor got his start as an amateur fighter. Within a year he was fighting in the pro league and within another six he signed with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Since signing with UFC, his career has exploded!

The 29-year-old fighting champion has headlined four of the six highest-earning pay-per-view fights in UFC history. In fact, his fight with Nate Diaz has been recorded as the highest-earning PPV fight ever.

Now he’s gearing up for the biggest fight of his career (and arguably the biggest fight in sporting history). On Saturday he’ll go head-to-head with Floyd “Money” Mayweather in a 12-round boxing match. It will be his highest paying gig yet. So, how will it impact Conor McGregor’s net worth?
