As of February 2024, Conor McGregor’s net worth is $200 Million, making him the richest MMA fighter in the world.

Conor McGregor is an Irish professional MMA fighter and entrepreneur in the UFC.

McGregor is the former UFC Lightweight Champion and UFC Featherweight Champion.

McGregor is one of only a few fighters in UFC history to have won titles in more than one weight class.

Early Life

Conor McGregor was born in Dublin, Ireland on the 14th of July 1988.

He was raised in Crumlin and attended school in Coláiste de hÍde in Tallaght.

Before becoming interested in fighting, McGregor became a big fan of soccer.

He then started boxing at Crumlin Boxing Club when he was 12 years old.

Conor was raised in a working-class family, and after he left school, he undertook a plumbing apprenticeship.

During this time, he also started training in mixed martial arts with a new friend, and future UFC fighter, Tom Egan.

Career

Conor’s career in mixed martial arts began when he was 18 years old and made his MMA debut.

He won his first amateur fight by TKO against Kieran Campbell, and after the fight was signed to the Irish Cage of Truth Promotions.

This is when his professional fighting career began.

McGregor fought professionally for 5 years, before being offered a contract to fight in the UFC.

Ultimate Fighting Championship

In February 2013, Conor McGregor was officially signed to the UFC.

At the time, he was only the second Irish fighter to have signed with the organization; with his teammate and friend, Tom Egan, being the first.

In April 2013, McGregor made his UFC Featherweight debut against Marcus Brimage, winning by technical knockout in the 1st round, and receiving his first “Knockout of the Night” bonus.

During the post-fight speech, McGregor took the microphone and addressed Dana White with the now-famous quote: “Dana, 60 G’s baby!”

After winning his debut, he went on to receive victories against his next four opponents: Max Holloway, Diego Brandao, Dustin Poirier, and Dennis Silver.

UFC Featherweight Championship

In 2015, the fight for the UFC Featherweight Championship belt between Conor McGregor and Jose Aldo was announced.

The pair went on a 12-day world tour doing interviews leading up to the event, with the UFC stating that this was the most heavily promoted fight thus far in the organization’s 22-year history.

Aldo would end up pulling out of the fight due to a rib injury, which led to Conor McGregor fighting, and defeating, Chad Mendes for the UFC Interim Featherweight Champion belt.

On the 10th of August, 2015, the fight for the Featherweight Championship between Aldo and McGregor was announced once again.

In December 2015, McGregor would knock out Jose Aldo in just 13 seconds (the fastest-ever knockout for a title bout), earning himself the UFC Featherweight Championship belt.

The Notorious suffered his very first UFC loss in 2016 to Nate Diaz, in a fight that took place in the Welterweight division. After losing due to submission in the first fight, a rematch took place just 5 months later, where McGregor would avenge his loss via a majority decision.

UFC Lightweight Championship

In November 2016, McGregor beat Eddie Alvarez to win the UFC Lightweight Championship belt, marking the first time a fighter had simultaneously held belts in two divisions.

It was after this moment, that McGregor’s career would start to take a downturn.

Conor took time away from the sport for the birth of his first child, and he was stripped of his Featherweight Championship belt due to his inactivity within the division.

In 2018, McGregor would also be stripped of the Lightweight Championship belt, once again due to inactivity.

His career in the UFC has since been relatively sporadic, with losses to Khabib Nurmagomedov and Dustin Poirier, and a single win over the cowboy Donald Cerrone.

McGregor is currently anticipated to return to the UFC sometime in 2023 to face off against the veteran Michael Chandler.

Professional Boxing Debut

In 2017, McGregor announce his professional boxing debut against the undefeated, Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather Jr.

The fight took place on the 26th of August, 2017 at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada.

It was stated that Conor would receive a guaranteed $30 million for the fight, Whilst Mayweather would receive $100 million.

McGregor lost by TKO in round 10, however, the event was such a success that McGregor ended up earning an estimated $130 million from the fight.

Proper No. Twelve

In September 2018, Conor McGregor launched his own whiskey brand, ‘Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey’, named after the childhood neighborhood he grew up in.

In 2021, a deal was struck for McGregor and his business partners to sell their 51% majority stake in the company to Proximo Spirits, who already owned the other 49% of the company.

The deal was estimated to be worth $600 million, making McGregor even richer overnight.

Finalization of the deal means that Conor McGregor no longer owns a stake in the Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey brand.

Conor McGregor has partnered with and been endorsed by many brands throughout the years. 

Here are several that we can mention:
