Conor McGregor net worth: How much is UFC 246 star worth ahead of Donald Cerrone clash?
Conor McGregor net worth - Express Sport provides some insight into how much the UFC's poster boy is worth ahead of UFC 246.
Conor McGregor became a very wealthy man after his boxing match with Floyd Mayweather. The UFC's first simultaneous two-weight world champion locked horns with the legendary boxer in a multi-million-pound showdown in August 2017.
For just 28 minutes work, 'The Notorious' took home a staggering £23m ($30m), a sum of cash he couldn't have fathomed when he began his martial arts journey.
According to the man himself, however, his overall purse for the much-maligned fight with Mayweather saw him earn close to £76m ($100m).
So where does his payday for fighting Mayweather stand in comparison to the purses he's received in his career?
Below is a breakdown of all the purses McGregor has received since joining the UFC in April 2013, including his most famous one.
