Jorge Linares- Is he The Money Man?

‘El Nino de Oro Golden Boy’ Linares has been in many big fights. However, the exact picture of his net worth is not clear. Some websites cite it to be around $5.5 million, while a few reports claim it to be around $4.4 million. Whatever the actual numbers may be, Linares is clearly a multi-millionaire.

Per Sportekz, Jorge Linares bagged one of his biggest paydays in 2018 when he fought Vasyl Lomachenko. Although ‘Loma’ beat him, Linares claimed a massive $1.2 million payday. He has consistently earned over six figures. Notably, he is one of the highest-paid boxers from the South American region in the 135 lbs weight class.

Apart from his in-ring success, Linares has also been successful in his outer-ring antics. He has bagged big sponsorship deals including one from Venum. That said, boxing appears to be his primary source of finance.

The current 135 lbs roster is blooming with umpteen big names who can be potential opponents for Linares. Hence, his highest-grossing fights may still be in the pipeline. A lot of his future will depend on how he fares later tonight against ‘The Dream’.

Do you think Jorge Linares will become a world champion again?
