After watching him flaunt what is quite frankly an insane watch collection, dress in meticulously tailored suits, drive around in a Rolls-Royce Ghost, and perhaps even test out the old sea legs with his Lamborghini yacht at the Monaco Grand Prix, you’re probably here because you googled “Conor McGregor Net Worth.”
The curiosity is more than warranted, of course. Everything we’ve outlined above aside, the former two-division champion whose name is practically synonymous with the UFC — and mixed martial arts as a whole — has consistently been in the conversation of the world’s richest sportsmen, and even crowned the world’s highest-paid athlete in 2021 by Forbes. The man makes it rain just by sneezing in public.

What Is Conor McGregor’s Net Worth?
*Note: all $$$ = USD
According to the latest estimate, Conor McGregor has a conservative net worth of $200 million. Although the man himself claims it’s closer to $650 million, verging on a billion.
The bulk of his wealth can be attributed to:
- his much-publicised crossover bout against undefeated boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr on August 2017 ($100 million payday)
- his equally-hyped UFC lightweight title fight against undefeated MMA legend Khabib Nurmagomedov ($50 million)
- as well as the sale of his majority stake in the Irish whiskey brand Proper No. Twelve — which McGregor launched back in 2018 — to Proximo Spirits
While it’s unclear what Mystic Mac netted from the latter, the transaction was reportedly valued at around $600 million.
Conor McGregor has also laid claim to the newly acquired title of history’s highest-paid debutante actor. For his contribution to Amazon Prime Video’s Road House remake, in which he portrayed the villainous Knox opposite Jake Gyllenhaal‘s Dalton Elwood, the Crumlin-born multihyphenate apparently earned $5.5 million.
“I am now officially the highest-paid first-time actor of all time, on record, pipping Dwayne Johnson for the top spot. Incredible!” he noted in a since-deleted X post.
During a recent appearance on Good Morning Britain, McGregor elaborated: “That’s the fact, the highest-paid first-time actor of all time so it’s a nice feather in the cap. There’s not an action star in Hollywood that could take me on and that’s a fact, so let’s see how it goes.”
Highest-Selling Conor McGregor PPVs
Contrary to popular belief, Conor McGregor’s greatest asset isn’t his .50 cal sniper of a left hand: it’s his personality. As such, he’s been a regular pay-per-view draw for the UFC ever since he first began headlining numbered events at UFC 189: Chad Mendes vs Conor McGregor (2015).
In fact, of the UFC’s Top 10 highest-selling pay-per-view events, Conor McGregor has been involved with exactly half of them; cards #1, #2, #4, #5, and #6.

Conor McGregor Endorsements & Other Business Ventures
Conor McGregor has endorsement deals with household brands like Beats by Dre, Monster Energy, Reebok, Bud Light, Burger King, Electronic Arts, TIDL Sport, Wynn Resorts and more. As of 2017, these rounded out to $7 million but unfortunately, we’ve yet to discover a more up-to-date figure.
McGregor also owns a fashion brand August McGregor (in partnership with David August), a pub called The Black Forge Inn and the Forged Irish Stout tie-in, as well as a media house-cum-publication known as The Mac Life.
Then there’s the matter of his newly established Hollywood acting career. Considering his performance as Knox in Amazon Prime Video’s Road House remake has universally been acknowledged as the highlight, we wouldn’t be surprised if we saw more of Conor McGregor: Action Star, as opposed to Conor McGregor: MMA Fighter.

Conor McGregor’s Next Fight: When will he return to the UFC (again)?
Despite his earlier claims that it wasn’t actually in development, UFC President Dana White has since confirmed Conor McGregor will fight Michael Chandler for his 2024 UFC return.
Dana White has also since confirmed a date for the long-awaited bout: June 29th, 2024 in Las Vegas for the promotion’s annual International Fight Week (UFC 303).
What makes it even juicier is that McGregor vs Chandler will take place at the 170-pound weight division (welterweight), opening the door for an entire world of exciting possibilities beyond UFC 303.
All of the above had initially been announced by Conor McGregor himself earlier this year, but the credibility of his claims was dismissed given his well-documented history of yanking our chains. Now, it’s official.
In the lead-up to all this, both the former two-division champion and Bellator transplant served as opposing coaches in The Ultimate Fighter season 31 — Team McGregor vs Team Chandler — which premiered back in May 2023 and wrapped up later that year in August.
For those who missed it, Team McGregor’s Brad Katona won the bantamweight final (for the second time) via Unanimous Decision while Team Chandler’s Kurt Holobaugh came out on top from the lightweight bracket via Submission.
McGregor’s return was then delayed by his commitment to Amazon Prime Video’s Road House remake starring Jake Gyllenhaal, with plenty of social media antics to fill the radio silence in between.
