Early Life

Conor Anthony McGregor was born in Crumlin, Ireland on July 14, 1988. He excelled in sports as a child, particularly soccer, but at the age of 12 he began training at a boxing club. Conor began his plumbing apprenticeship in 2006, when he was 17 years old. Fighter Tom Egan introduced him to the UFC while he was working at this employment. Egan and McGregor began training together soon after.

McGregor began his training in boxing before moving on to SBG Ireland to train with John Kavanagh, the first Irish person to achieve a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and his team. Prior to competing in professional MMA, he also trained in Tae Kwon Do, Karate, Capoeira, and Kickboxing.

UFC

Conor made his amateur MMA debut at the age of 18 a year later. In his debut, he won by TKO in the first round. Conor was on welfare in Ireland just a few weeks before his MMA debut, receiving $235 per week in government assistance checks.

The UFC announced in February 2013 that they had signed McGregor to a multi-fight contract. He was the company’s second fighter from the Republic of Ireland at the time, following welterweight Tom Egan. He made his UFC debut on April 6, 2013 against Marcus Brimage and won his first fight via TKO just over a minute into the first round. McGregor also received his first Knockout of the Night award as a result of his victory.

McGregor is a wide-stance striker who has successfully created a variety of other combat styles in order to excel and rise into the top 10. His rapid straight-arm left jab, according to some, is his most effective move. McGregor has had an incredible rise for a foreign-born UFC fighter.

Conor McGregor’s Biggest UFC Paydays

McGregor got $5 million after he fought Chad Mendes at UFC 189 on July 11, 2015. Conor earned a projected $12 million after defeating Jose Aldo in 13 seconds on December 11, 2015. Conor McGregor reportedly received a minimum of $10 million, and possibly as much as $15 million, when he defeated Nate Diaz at UFC 196 on March 5, 2016. When he faced Nate Diaz again at UFC 202, he reportedly received $25 million. In November 2016, he won roughly $7 million facing Eddie Alvarez. In October 2018, he won an estimated $50 million from his bout with Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Total UFC earnings to date: about $115 million (including Khabib’s $50 million payoff).

Conor McGregor defeated Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone in his much-anticipated return to the UFC on January 18, 2020. Conor was guaranteed $5 million for the fight, a UFC record at the time. In interviews, he has hinted that if Pay Per View sales are strong, his revenues from the Cerrone fight could reach $80 million. Cerrone was promised $2 million if he showed up.

Conor was defeated by Dustin Poirier on January 23, 2021. Conor was guaranteed $5 million once more. He effectively lost a huge future payday by killing another match against Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Floyd Mayweather Fight Earnings

Conor went from the MMA cage to the boxing ring on August 26, 2017, when he faced off against undefeated champion Floyd Mayweather. With 4.3 million buys, the bout was one of the most profitable PPV events of all time. Conor earned an estimated $100 million at that level in guarantees, product royalties, concessions, and bonuses. Conor’s Net Worth after the Floyd fight was $85 million if you consider he lost about 50% of his profits to taxes.

Conor also earned approximately $14 million from endorsements with companies such as Burger King, Beats by Dre, and Anheuser-Busch between June 2017 and June 2018.

If Conor had defeated Mayweather (against all odds), it would have set up a rematch in which Conor might have won another enormous paycheck. It’s not unreasonable to believe that he could have demanded at least half of the income from a future fight. That would have resulted in a payout of $200-$300 million.
