Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor’s Net Worth Difference Is a Whopping $1 Billion

Former world champion boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. and UFC legend Conor McGregor are two of the wealthiest athletes in the world. However, Mayweather’s wealth far surpasses that of McGregor.

Conor McGregor currently has a net worth of $200 million. His fights with Mayweather in 2017 and Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018 were major contributors to his net worth. Moreover, McGregor also had significant earnings from his whiskey brand: Proper No. Twelve.

Even though McGregor has a sizeable net worth, it is dwarfed by the sheer enormity of Mayweather’s net worth. Earlier, Mayweather revealed that he has made over $1.2 billion throughout his career.

Mayweather was talking at the ‘Million Dollaz Worth of Game’ podcast with hosts Gillie da King and Wallo 267. In conversation, Mayweather was asked if he was a billionaire.

He replied saying, “I’ve reached it. That was over four years ago.”

Host Gillie Da King tried to reconfirm if it was a billion. Mayweather further added, “Oh 1.2, over 1.2.”

Mayweather also revealed that he made $650 million from two fights alone, namely with Manny Pacquiao and McGregor.

Floyd Mayweather was not the only boxer who minted money

Mayweather’s net worth can be considered at a different league altogether. However, ‘TBE’ is not the only one who has received fat paychecks in his professional boxing career.

Mike Tyson was considered one of the richest boxers at one point in time. Before filing for bankruptcy in 2003, Tyson was worth $300 million at his peak. ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ was also notorious for his outlandish displays of wealth.

Two time world heavyweight champion George Foreman has amassed a net worth of $300 million. Boxing career aside, Foreman has also enjoyed a career as an entrepreneur, he is especially known for the George Foreman grill.

Boxing legend Muhammad Ali was also worth $50 million at the time of his death.

The only eight division world champion in the history of boxing, Manny Pacquiao, has also earned a significant amount from the sport. The Filipino boxer is currently worth $220 million.
