Khabib is 2nd richest MMA fighter ever?

[gb@Trumpski]

In terms of earning (not inherited wealth or money made from WWE like Brock), if its true (and I have doubts) that Khabib made 15million, that eclipses the 6million i thought GSP earned.

Ever heard of Anderson Silva money?

 

[D'z]

Lot's of asterisks in this post.

 

[gb@Trumpski]

Ever heard of Anderson Silva money?

Hew must made some millions from endorsements, but i would be surprised if her earned more than 10 million from all fights combined

 

[Noraaq]

If its true that he made 15 million last fight, he might be

 

[WHITE ANDERSON]

Depends if you are talking about highest earnings from a fight or wealthiest.

Found this link that seems to have a few surprises in there but expected GSP, BJ and Anderson to be up there.

Edit: Saw your note re: inherited wealth so that rules BJ out for it.

If you take away the boxing money Im not sure Conor is the richest.

This is what the internets say:

https://wealthygorilla.com/top-20-richest-mma-fighters-world/

In millions $ :

1. Conor McGregor - 85
2. Rorian Gracie -50
3. Georges St. Pierre -25
4. BJ Penn - 22
5. Brock Lesnar - 22
6. Anderson Silva -18
7. Fedor Emelianenko - 18
8. Wanderlei Silva - 18
9. Randy Couture - 17
10. Tito Ortiz - 15
11. Chuck Liddell - 14
12. Quinton Rampage Jackson - 12
13. Ronda Rousey - 12
14. Bas Rutten - 10
15. Chael Sonnen - 10
16. Jon Bones - 10
17. Junior Dos Santos - 10
18. Frank Mir - 9
19. Frank Shamrock - 9
20. Jose Aldo - 9

This is before the Khabib vs Conor fight obviously.

Khabib had 2, and if he made 15 that's puts him in the 10th spot, and if Conor made 30-40, that makes him even more filthy rich.

How the fuck did Rorian Gracie make 50 million?

Part of said legacy: smeshing Conor.

What do most living in the basement of their parents - some of them trolling on Sherdog - have to show for themselves?

That wealthy gorilla link cites zero sources. Looks like a crock of shit.

Not even close. I dont imagine hes even in the top ten.
It goes without saying, but Im saying it, he got as rich as he is courtesy of Conor

 

[Chris Hernandez]

You expect me to believe that Bas Rutten made 10 million over his career? That guy will hawk anything... I heard him on JRE recently where he was saying that if Kevin Can wait got picked up for a 3rd season he would be a regular.... Doesn't add up... And... I still call BS on Khabib making 15 mil on the last fight.... He made probably 8-10 mil with Purse and PPV, but 15... I don't believe it....

I was about to say I’m surprised BJ had that much earnings.

Well, Bas did have a pretty popular video series and also sold that striking dummy.....
