How can you ignore the Mayweather fight when Conor made almost $100M from that? His net worth is $120M now.
I'm not ignoring it at all... It's part of his wealth isn't it ? Do you want it included or not?
Khabib and his dad both tried to get a similar deal.... unfortunately they didn't.
What I tried to show with my post is that their careers are actually quite similar in terms of fights and time spent. Connor hit the jackpot with that fight and has earned 3x as much . In pretty much the same space of time being professional athletes.
According to Forbes, McGregor got a base salary of $3million for his blockbuster UFC 229 bout with Khabib Nurmagomedov with the record PPV buys and other endorsements helping push his total take home pay to more than $50million.
I cannot find any accurate sources for khabibs net worth as I'm curious now.
Throughout his entire UFC career,
Khabib Nurmagomedov has featured in 12 events and
earned a total of around $15.6 million. In 2018, he defeated
Conor McGregor and became a household name. He received $2 million for showing up and $40,000 as a bonus.Mar 19, 2020
Once again the thread title.
How does Khabib aleady have nearly half of Conor's total worth?
For starters 50 million isn't close to half of 150 million. Using the op as a source. ( who is using Dana white as a source. )
So for me the question could easily be how has Connor maybe trippled easily doubled Khabibs earnings in the same time period.
Because we can attempt to answer it . As you said Floyd fight proper 12 . Big fights.
How Khabib has nearly have half Connors wealth is impossible for me to remotely answer because no solid source exists on his net worth. I'm not accepting his daddy says he's rich lol.
How does khabib
allready have nearly half
I'm not amazed that Khabibs who is a undefeated champion has a third or a half of Connors wealth. Considering he's been in the ufc longer, had more wins and is undefeated.
Once again not a fan of either but I found the question to be phrased like having less is a accomplishment to be interesting
