The champion Israel Adesanya will make his second career defense against the Brazilian Paulo Costa at UFC 253 on September 19. ESPN’s Ariel Helwani confirmed the news, which was first reported by Combate. The blockbuster reveal comes just a day after UFC President Dana White said that they’re gonna fight. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-theyre-gonna-fight-dana-white-provides-an-update-on-blockbuster-middleweight-clash-israel-adesanya-paulo-costa/] His comments came in response to ‘Borrachinha’ being unhappy with ‘The Last Stylebender’ for delaying the clash. “You Will Lose the Belt!”-Paulo Costa Not Happy with Israel Adesanya Delaying Match-up [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-you-will-lose-the-belt-paulo-costa-not-happy-with-israel-adesanya-delaying-matchup/] PAULO COSTA CAN’T WAIT TO FACE ISRAEL ADESANYA The news will no doubt enthuse the Brazilian. He has been urging the champion to show up [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-show-up-skinny-boy-lets-fight-paulo-costa-goads-israel-adesanya-to-sign-the-contract/] for the entire last month. In this regard, he Tweeted, “The fight is on folks! In September I ll bring the Show up” The 2nd ranked UFC Middleweight contender is undefeated as a professional in over 7 years. He has a 13-0 record [https://www.espn.in/mma/fighter/history/_/id/4080826/paulo-costa] and has claimed wins over Johny Hendricks and Uriah Hall. Furthermore, he beat Yoel Romero to earn a title shot. However, due to injury, he withdrew, and ‘Soldier of God’ replaced him at UFC 248. paulo-costa [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/paulo-costa-1.jpg] Most fans remember this event for the Champion sitting atop the cage and giving ‘Borrachinha’ the finger. In response, he unsuccessfully tried to leap and get his hands on ‘The Last Stylebender.’ As of this moment, the location for the PPV is not official. However, fans can assume that the duo will fight at the UFC Apex as per Lawrence Epstein who said to Sports Business [https://www.sportbusiness.com/2020/07/ufc-fight-island-stringent-testing-underpins-abu-dhabi-event/], that the company will return to the facility for 9 straight events following Fight Island. Earlier, a Lightweight unification bout too was tentatively set to be part of the event. However, in the wake of a personal tragedy in the Nurmagomedov family, Dana White has said that they are not messing with Khabib. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-were-not-messing-with-khabib-dana-white-opens-up-on-khabib-nurmagomedov-situation-after-ufc-251-fight-island/] The UFC has secured one Championship fight, and given the stats of the 2 fighters, fans can be assured that they are in for a back and forth treat. Who do you see emerging victorious from this scrap and handing the other their first professional defeat?

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Dana White: Net Worth 2024, Salary, Wife, and More</b></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Dana White? </strong></h2>
Dana Frederick White Jr. is a name that every MMA fanatic knows. From running away from mobsters to running the biggest MMA promotion in the world, White has come a long way. An organization he and his friend Lorenzo Fertitta bought for $2 million, now stands at nearly $7-8 million.

He played an instrumental role in making the UFC the household brand it is today. He started his career as a bouncer and climbed the ladder to become one of the most successful businesspeople worldwide. His business acumen, shrewd tactics, and eye for opportunities eased UFC's path to establish itself as the biggest MMA promotion.

As of 2024, he works as the President of UFC, a position he has held since 2001.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Dana White's early lifeÂ </b></h2>
Born on July 28, 1969, White spent his early childhood in Ware, Massachusetts. The 53-year-old spent his youth switching bases between Las Vegas and Maine. White initially attended Bishop Gorman High School, where he first encountered Lorenzo Fertitta. However, he got kicked out twice and finally graduated from Hermon High School in Maine in 1987.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611">

</figcaption></figure>
White dropped out of college twice and juggled various jobs, including laying asphalt, a bouncer at an Irish bar, and as a bellhop at the Boston Harbor Hotel.

Ever interested in combat sports, White picked up a pair of boxing gloves at 17 and initially dreamt of pursuing a professional career. However, he soon dropped the idea after witnessing a punch drunk boxer (someone suffering from Chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a disease linked to head trauma injury)Â and feared the same outcome for himself.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Dana White's parents</b></h2>
Dana White was born to June and Dana White Sr. and traces his roots as an Irish American. While much is not known about his father, he and his sister Kelly mostly grew up under the care of his mother and grandparents. His mother was a nurse by profession and their move to Vegas was in pursuit of a better livelihood.

In 2011, June released the unauthorized autobiography of the UFC lynchpin- 'Dana White, King of MMA'. She shockingly revealed that her sonÂ <em>"had turned his back on his family and friends who were there for home when he needed help and support".</em>

Similarly,Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46eMp_rWgjc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in a 2011 interview,</a>Â she said,Â <em>"He's not a good person. He seems to have lost his character somewhere along the way. He mistreats people."</em>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Dana White's wife and children</b></h2>
UFC President is married to Anne, whom he met in eighth grade, and the duo tied the knot in 1996. The couple is blessed with three children, two sons- Dana III, Aidan, and one daughter Savannah.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>What is Dana White's net worth in 2024?</b></h2>
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Dana White has a net worth of $500 million. Further, he collects an estimated $20 million salary annually.

Apart from this, he also owns "Power Slap," alongside ventures inside the UFC like "Dana White's Contender Series." This surely helps him bank quite a sum, alongside his occasional big wins in gambling. For instance, he once won nearly $7 million in a single night at a Las Vegas Casino.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Is Dana White the owner of UFC?</strong></h2>
While running boxercise gyms, he met MMA fighters, Tito Ortiz and Chuck Liddell, and eventually took over as their manager. Moreover, he met Bob Meyrowitz and pounced on the opportunity when he learned Meyrowitz wanted to sell UFC. He sought the aid of Lorenzo Fertitta and ultimately he and his older brother Frank bought the UFC for $2 million. And the pair appointed White as the President.

<p id="node---34197-figcap">via Getty</p>

</figcaption></figure>
In 2019, White penned a lucrative 7-year contract with the promotion, elongating his stronghold. Markedly, in April 2023, Endeavor, the parent company of UFC,Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wwe-news-unbelievable-wwes-high-profile-sale-to-ufcs-parent-company-made-jim-ross-scared-because-of-one-particular-reason/" target="_self" rel="noopener">announced a merger with WWE</a> to form a new $24 billion company. Additionally, White retained his position as the president of the UFC brand. White previously owned 9% of the UFC before he sold his stake to Endeavor for $340 million.

In addition, White also worked as a co-promoter of theÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/conor-mcgregor/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor</a>-Floyd Mayweather fight, thus making his debut in boxing scenes. However, soon he lost interest as he labeled boxing promotion as a "<em>broken business</em>" in 2022.

Another brainchild of White, The Power Slap, debuted in January 2023, on which White worked as a producer.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Dana Whiteâ€™s health: Weight loss, fasting &amp; transformation</strong></h2>
Over the last few years, Dana White's health has undergone a massive transformation, and now he is seemingly in his best health. His life coach and founder of 10X Health System, Garry Brecka had even predicted that at the rate White was indulging in bad habits and ignoring his health, he might only have a decade left.

He had previously been wrongly diagnosed with idiopathic depression, and the medications took a toll on him. Later, the mogul also suffered from dangerously high blood pressure, was overweight, and had a high triglyceride count, which allowed Brecka to reach his conclusion. And according to him, marking the life expectancy only validated the urgency for White.

He would soon make <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-why-did-dana-white-lose-so-much-weight-real-reason-behind-86-hour-water-fast-carried-out-by-the-ufc-ceo/">massive strides in his lifestyle and share with the world his secrets</a>. He followed a holistic plan with the help of Brecka that included the right diet, supplements, and exercise. His diet included high fat but low carbs, to induce ketosis, a method by which fat is broken down into ketones. It also included an 86-hour water-fast regimen that was so transformative that White couldn't help but share it with the world.

<img class="size-medium wp-image-1914362 aligncenter" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/NINTCHDBPICT000765320323-380x315.jpg" alt="" width="380" height="315" />

Now White continues to be healthier than ever and includes other innovative techniques such as ice baths to up his health game. After all, to be the president of the world's biggest MMA promotion is no joke and only a healthy man can play the long haul.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dana Whiteâ€™s other businesses and endorsements</strong></h2>
A man of many talents, the man who made UFC the biggest MMA promotion in the world has numerous other ventures under his sleeve. Here are some enlisted-
<ul>
 	<li>
<h3>Power Slap</h3>
</li>
</ul>
White is the founder and promoter of Power Slap, an unconventional fighting organization that was launched in 2022. Since then, it has come under much controversy, with many deeming it a barbaric and exploitative sport. Nonetheless, White has stood stern on his belief that it has the potential to become a major combat sport and open new avenues for numerous fighters.
<ul>
 	<li>
<h3><strong>Throw One</strong></h3>
</li>
</ul>
It is a media company that was founded by the two original pillars of the UFC banner, Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta. This venture operates as the parent company for numerous ventures, such as,-
<ul style="list-style-type: circle">
 	<li data-sourcepos="6:5-6:88"><strong>Power Slap:</strong> The controversial slap-fighting organization.</li>
 	<li data-sourcepos="7:5-7:53"><strong>Ridiculousness:</strong>Â A popular comedy clip show.</li>
 	<li data-sourcepos="8:5-8:75"><strong>Street League Skateboarding:</strong>Â A professional skateboarding league.</li>
 	<li data-sourcepos="9:5-9:62"><strong>Nitro Circus:</strong> A live-action stunt performance group.</li>
 	<li data-sourcepos="10:5-10:64"><strong>Travis Pastrana's NRX Rallycar:</strong>Â A rally racing series.</li>
</ul>
White's involvement currently stands as the co-founder and co-owner of the above. Further, the UFC head honcho is committed to UFC and restricts himself from promoting anything apart from the UFC.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Dana White's awards and accomplishments</strong></h2>
<ul>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Armed Forces Foundation - Patriot Award (2009)</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400">World MMA Awards - Leading Man of the Year (2008â€“23)</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Wrestling Observer Newsletter - Promoter of the Year (2005â€“13; 2015â€“16)</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400">Other accomplishments - Nevada Sportsman of the Year (2009)</span></li>
</ul>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Dana White's foundation and charity</b></h2>
The UFC president also liberally utilizes his money for good causes. HeÂ has donated $100,000 toÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dustin-poirier/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Dustin Poirier</a>'s charity. In addition, he once gave $50,000 for a liver transplant to the daughter of one of the instructors at Tiger Muay Thai.

Also, he gave $100,000 to his former high school, and $1 million to the Las Vegas shooting victims.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dana Whiteâ€™s house</strong></h2>
The UFC head's first notable house purchase was reported in 2006 when he bought a mansion in Pine Island Court, Las Vegas, from the American business mogul <b>Frank Fertitta </b>for $1.95 million. Thereafter he bought 3 more mansions in the same area from 2016 to 2017, which were later demolished, presumably to build his current mega mansion.

The current mansion boasts nine bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, a gym, a massage room, a basketball court, an arcade, a bar, and a kitchen, all worthy of a king.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Dana Whiteâ€™s car collection</strong></h2>
Complimenting his massive crib, and the luxurious office is his collection of vehicles that he has amassed over the years. But despite that, his first car was a 'rusted out Datsun B210.' Here are some of his prized possessions-
<ul>
 	<li>A Harley Davidson featuring the UFC logo, that was gifted by the company</li>
 	<li>Ducati and a MV Agusta F4</li>
 	<li>A classic red Ferrari Testarossa</li>
 	<li>A black Ferrari Spider F430</li>
 	<li>1971 Plymouth Barracuda</li>
 	<li>BMW M6 Gran Coupe</li>
</ul>
Apart from this, he has also gifted his beloved sons the gift of speed as their sweet sixteen gifts. His eldest son Aidan was bestowed with a customized Defender Works V8 70th Anniversary Edition, while Dana Jr. kept a BMW M6.

Keeping up with his busy schedule, it is not surprising that he owns a private jet, an indulgent Bombardier jet to be precise.

He sought the aid of Lorenzo Fertitta and ultimately he and his older brother Frank bought the UFC for $2 million. And the pair appointed White as the President.  via Getty In 2019, White penned a lucrative 7-year contract with the promotion, elongating his stronghold. Markedly, in April 2023, Endeavor, the parent company of UFC,Â announced a merger with WWE to form a new $24 billion company. Additionally, White retained his position as the president of the UFC brand. White previously owned 9% of the UFC before he sold his stake to Endeavor for $340 million. In addition, White also worked as a co-promoter of theÂ Conor McGregor-Floyd Mayweather fight, thus making his debut in boxing scenes. However, soon he lost interest as he labeled boxing promotion as a &#8220;broken business&#8221; in 2022. Another brainchild of White, The Power Slap, debuted in January 2023, on which White worked as a producer. Dana Whiteâ€™s health: Weight loss, fasting &amp; transformation Over the last few years, Dana White&#8217;s health has undergone a massive transformation, and now he is seemingly in his best health. His life coach and founder of 10X Health System, Garry Brecka had even predicted that at the rate White was indulging in bad habits and ignoring his health, he might only have a decade left. He had previously been wrongly diagnosed with idiopathic depression, and the medications took a toll on him. Later, the mogul also suffered from dangerously high blood pressure, was overweight, and had a high triglyceride count, which allowed Brecka to reach his conclusion. And according to him, marking the life expectancy only validated the urgency for White. He would soon make massive strides in his lifestyle and share with the world his secrets. He followed a holistic plan with the help of Brecka that included the right diet, supplements, and exercise. His diet included high fat but low carbs, to induce ketosis, a method by which fat is broken down into ketones. It also included an 86-hour water-fast regimen that was so transformative that White couldn&#8217;t help but share it with the world. Now White continues to be healthier than ever and includes other innovative techniques such as ice baths to up his health game. After all, to be the president of the world&#8217;s biggest MMA promotion is no joke and only a healthy man can play the long haul. Dana Whiteâ€™s other businesses and endorsements A man of many talents, the man who made UFC the biggest MMA promotion in the world has numerous other ventures under his sleeve. Here are some enlisted-  Power Slap  White is the founder and promoter of Power Slap, an unconventional fighting organization that was launched in 2022. Since then, it has come under much controversy, with many deeming it a barbaric and exploitative sport. Nonetheless, White has stood stern on his belief that it has the potential to become a major combat sport and open new avenues for numerous fighters.  Throw One  It is a media company that was founded by the two original pillars of the UFC banner, Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta. This venture operates as the parent company for numerous ventures, such as,- Power Slap: The controversial slap-fighting organization. Ridiculousness:Â A popular comedy clip show. Street League Skateboarding:Â A professional skateboarding league. Nitro Circus: A live-action stunt performance group. Travis Pastrana&#8217;s NRX Rallycar:Â A rally racing series. White&#8217;s involvement currently stands as the co-founder and co-owner of the above. Further, the UFC head honcho is committed to UFC and restricts himself from promoting anything apart from the UFC. Dana White&#8217;s awards and accomplishments Armed Forces Foundation &#8211; Patriot Award (2009) World MMA Awards &#8211; Leading Man of the Year (2008â€“23) Wrestling Observer Newsletter &#8211; Promoter of the Year (2005â€“13; 2015â€“16) Other accomplishments &#8211; Nevada Sportsman of the Year (2009) Dana White&#8217;s foundation and charity The UFC president also liberally utilizes his money for good causes. HeÂ has donated $100,000 toÂ Dustin Poirier&#8216;s charity. In addition, he once gave $50,000 for a liver transplant to the daughter of one of the instructors at Tiger Muay Thai. Also, he gave $100,000 to his former high school, and $1 million to the Las Vegas shooting victims. Dana Whiteâ€™s house The UFC head&#8217;s first notable house purchase was reported in 2006 when he bought a mansion in Pine Island Court, Las Vegas, from the American business mogul Frank Fertitta for $1.95 million. Thereafter he bought 3 more mansions in the same area from 2016 to 2017, which were later demolished, presumably to build his current mega mansion. The current mansion boasts nine bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, a gym, a massage room, a basketball court, an arcade, a bar, and a kitchen, all worthy of a king. Dana Whiteâ€™s car collection Complimenting his massive crib, and the luxurious office is his collection of vehicles that he has amassed over the years. But despite that, his first car was a &#8216;rusted out Datsun B210.&#8217; Here are some of his prized possessions- A Harley Davidson featuring the UFC logo, that was gifted by the company Ducati and a MV Agusta F4 A classic red Ferrari Testarossa A black Ferrari Spider F430 1971 Plymouth Barracuda BMW M6 Gran Coupe Apart from this, he has also gifted his beloved sons the gift of speed as their sweet sixteen gifts. His eldest son Aidan was bestowed with a customized Defender Works V8 70th Anniversary Edition, while Dana Jr. kept a BMW M6.

Israel Adesanya

Israel Adesanya: Net Worth 2024, Record, Girlfriend, and More Who is Israel Adesanya? The former Middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya, is undoubtedly one of the most noted figures in the entire UFC. While many have called out the promotion for allegedly underpaying its athletes, Adesanya may call himself an exception to this.  via Imago Adesanya joined the UFC back in December 2017. Since then, it has been quite a glorious ride for &#8216;The Last Stylebender&#8217;. After crowning himself as the Middleweight champion in 2019, Adesanya went on to become one of the highest-paid athletes in the UFC. So here&#8217;s a look at all you need to know about the middleweight phenom. Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Early LifeÂ  Adesanya was born in Nigeria. His father, Oluwafemi earned his livelihood as an accountant and his mother, Taiwo worked as a nurse. &#8216;Izzy&#8217; was the eldest of his five siblings. He went to Chrisland School, Opebi, and also got himself enrolled in the Taekwondo club of the school. His mother later got him out of there after he sustained an injury. Adesanya also spent 10 months in Ghana since their family relocated. However, his parents wanted him to get a better quality higher education and sent him to Rotorua, New Zealand. Adesanya was just 10 years of age at that time. Although Adesanya didn&#8217;t take any interest in sports after joining Rotorua Boys&#8217; High School, his choice was altered when he faced regular bullying in his high school years.       View this post on Instagram            A post shared by Myprotein (@myprotein)  The noted Muay Thai-based film, &#8216;Ong Bak&#8217; served as an inspiration for him to join kickboxing. At 20, Adesanya decided to give up his studies as a Bachelor of Science in Computer Design at the Universal College of Learning in Whanganui and decided to fight. Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Girlfriend Although &#8216;Izzy&#8217; has never been vocal about his relationships, he gave of hint to his eagle-eyed fans when he posted some snaps of himself with a lady. Later, the fans identified her to be the famed Australian model, Shana Evers.  Adesanya and Evers follow each other on Instagram. The speculations about their relationship started when Adesanya liked and commented on a 1 September 2021 post from Evers. Although, &#8216;Izzy&#8217; hasn&#8217;t expressed any desire to publicize his relationship, still it&#8217;s known that the couple isn&#8217;t married yet and also doesn&#8217;t have any kids together. Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Net Worth 2024Â  As per several reports, Israel Adesanya&#8217;s net worth is estimated to be around $4-6 million as of 2024. Several factors influence a fighter&#8217;s earnings, such as base salary, win bonuses, and performance incentives. Additionally, endorsements and product placements can generate substantial income. Adesanya&#8217;s UFC career has been a major contributor to his wealth. His salary, pay-per-view shares, and win bonuses have steadily increased as he climbed the ranks. Notably, his fight against Alex Pereira at UFC 287, for instance, earned him a massive paycheck of $3.18 million. Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Career Timeline Adesanya started off his professional kickboxing career in the &#8216;Kulun Fight&#8217; promotion in China. After getting eliminated from the semifinals of the 2014 Kunlun Fight 80 kg tournament, &#8216;Izzy&#8217; moved on to join the noted kickboxing promotion, Glory Kickboxing. That&#8217;s where he clashed with his biggest rival, Alex Pereira, and lost twice to him.  &#8216;Izzy&#8217; also participated in the Glory Middleweight Contender tournament in 2016. He also won the tournament and fought Jason Wilnis for the championship, but Adesanya lost the fight via a unanimous decision. His last Glory fight was against the noted current UFC champ, Alex Pereira, who was also signed with the promotion at that time. Izzy lost the bout via a knockout in the final round. Israel Adesanya&#8217;s Professional Mixed Martial Arts Career Following his Glory kickboxing days, Adesanya transitioned to MMA. He also fought for a few promotions, including the Australian Fighting Championship. But, &#8216;The Last Stylebender&#8217; didn&#8217;t agree to be contented fighting for such small promotions. The former UFC Middleweight champ made his debut at UFC 221 against the famed Middleweight, Rob Wilkinson. He also picked up a superb TKO victory in the second round itself. Following his superb debut, Adesanya continued to showcase his prowess in the UFC Middleweight division.  He defeated several noted UFC Middleweights, including the legendary Anderson Silva, which lined him up for a title shot against the famed, Kelvin Gastelum. &#8216;Izzy&#8217; put up a superb display of his courage in the bout as he claimed the UFC Middleweight Championship with a unanimous decision victory in the bout. Adesanya is considered the most active champion in the UFC by a lot of fans. He also has a remarkable six title defenses to his name. Adesanya held the Middleweight title for more than 3 years before losing it to Pereira in November 2022. Nevertheless, Izzy avenged his loss at UFC 287: Pereira vs Adesanya 2, but lost his title once again to the underdog Sean Strickland, who stepped in instead of Dricus Du Plessis for UFC 293. Now there&#8217;s also a cinematic touch to Adesanya&#8217;s comeback since he will once again try to clinch his crown from none other than Dricus Du Plessis. Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Contract While the exact terms of the contract, such as its duration or specific financial details, have not been publicly disclosed, it is reported that Israel Adesanya signed a multi-fight contract with the UFC before UFC 271. This deal is one that has been widely described as &#8220;one of the most lucrative multi-fight deals in company history.&#8221; Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Partnerships and Endorsements Apart from his earnings from the UFC, a lot of brand endorsements also contribute to his million-dollar net worth of &#8216;The Last Stylebender&#8217;. Adesanya made history by becoming the first MMA fighter to sign with Puma. He also has a Prime Hydration sponsorship. Yes the popular sports drink brand, co-founded by KSI and Logan Paul. They secured Adesanya and fellow UFC champion Alex Volkanovski as their first athlete endorsements.

Additionally, he was also the ambassador for Stake.com, and partnered with Engage, a clothing brand,Â for limited edition collections. Israel Adesanyaâ€™s Career and Record Adesanya&#8217;s UFC debut was met with immediate success. He climbed the ranks rapidly, but not without his own share of setbacks.

He is a regular donator for various noble causes but prefers keeping them to himself. Also, Izzy refrains from making donations to large organizations since they might become public knowledge. Instead, he prefers providing aid to smaller entities. He once revealed,Â &#8220;My sister, who&#8217;s a nurse, was telling me about the hospital needing beds. I donated $20,000 just to help them out and they got a few new beds more than a few new beds.&#8221; Adesanya also sponsored 10,000 three-ply face masks and 1000 eye protection face shields for Whanganui&#8217;s frontline health staff in the fight against COVID-19.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Khabib Nurmagomedov?</strong></h2>
A name that needs no introduction, Khabib Nurmagomedov is a retired MMA fighter who is an absolute legend and retired from the sport undefeated. This combat Sambo specialist is known for his dominant wrestling and grappling skills, alongside extraordinary ground control.

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="1200"]<img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-938744056" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0040758407h.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="762" /> via Imago[/caption]

The first Muslim to have won a UFC title, Nurmagomedov's influence extends way beyond the octagon, especially in Russia, his home. So here's a peek at the life of 'The Eagle' from the mountains of Dagestan, who vanquished all the UFC middleweight contenders.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s early life</strong></h2>
<strong>Khabib Abdulmanapovich Nurmagomedov</strong>Â was born into an Avar family on September 20, 1988, in Sildi village, located in the Tsumadinsky District of the Dagestan ASSR in the former Soviet Union, which is now part of Russia. His father,Â <strong>Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov</strong>, was a decorated athlete and war veteran. Khabib has two siblings, an older brother namedÂ <strong>Muhammad Nurmagomedov</strong>Â and a younger sister namedÂ <strong>Amina Nurmagomedov</strong>. He received his early education in his village's local school, where his father guided him in combat training from a young age.

When he was fifteen, the family moved to Makhachkala, where he continued wrestling training and began taking judo classes. Khabib found the switch from wrestling to judo difficult, but his father insisted that Khabib learn how to compete in a gi jacket.

In addition to his fighting training, Khabib continued his schooling, enrolling in the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics and was a third-year student as of 2019. Despite his academic pursuits, Khabib remained focused on his combat sports career.

Khabib Nurmagomedov's father was Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov and his mother's name is not disclosed. Abdulmanap was a highly respected MMA coach and former wrestler who trained numerous champions, including his own son Khabib. He was known for his innovative training methods and his ability to inspire his fighters to achieve their full potential. He also played a key role in the development of MMA in Dagestan, Russia, where he founded and ran a successful gym.

Khabib's mother was a homemaker who played a crucial role in supporting her husband's coaching career and raising their kids. In fact,Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-im-only-32-years-old-khabib-nurmagomedov-reveals-whether-he-would-return-to-ufc-with-his-mothers-permission/" target="_self" rel="noopener">it was due to his mother's promise that Khabib retired from fighting</a>.

Sadly, Abdulmanap passed away in 2020 after complications from COVID-19, leaving a legacy that will continue to inspire generations of fighters to come.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Â Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s wife and children</strong></h2>
Khabib Nurmagomedov and his wife Patimat Nurmagomedov tied the knot in June 2013. Not much information is available on his wife as she does not have any social media presence, and Khabib has always maintained privacy regarding his personal life.

The couple has three children. Their firstborn was a daughter named Fatima Nurmagomedov, born on 1 June 2015. Two years later, they welcomed a son named Magomed Nurmagomedov, named after Khabib's great-grandfather, on 30 December 2017. Another son, Husayn Nurmagomedov, was born on 22 December 2019.

Despite Khabib's fame as a professional fighter, his family of five lives a private life away from the public eye. They keep their personal life out of the spotlight and focus on spending time together as a family.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s net worth 2024</strong></h2>
Khabib's victory over Conor McGregor elevated his status to a Mega Star. He made over $6,640,000 against Conor. However, he was fined $0.5 million for the post-fight brawl.

Nurmagomedov was awarded a whopping $6,877,500 for his second title defense against Dustin Poirier. As per reports, 'The Eagle' has made $21,720,200 in his 13 UFC fights. <strong>'The Eagle' has an estimated net worth of $40 million.</strong>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s career timeline</strong></h2>
Khabib Nurmagomedov burst onto the MMA scene with a bang in 2008 when he made his debut. He secured an impressive four wins in just one month, three of which were on a single day. He continued to compete in various tournaments and championships until he set his sights on joining the UFC.

After amassing a record of 16 wins outside of the UFC, Khabib finally made his UFC debut in 2012, and it was a resounding success. He defeated Kamal Shalorus by submission in the third round and continued his path of destruction from his previous victories outside the octagon. He went on to defeat the likes of Gleison Tibau, Edson Barboza, Michael Johnson, and Thiago Tavares before embarking on his title run.

Despite his dominant performances, Khabib's championship pursuits were stalled by a series of injuries and missed opportunities. However, he remained steadfast in his training and skill refinement. Eventually, he earned a shot at the UFC lightweight title in 2018 against Al Iaquinta. That fight saw Iaquinta stepping up on short notice, leading to Khabib living his dream.

After that, in a highly anticipated showdown with champion<strong>Â Conor McGregor</strong>, Khabib delivered a dominant performance, submitting his opponent in the fourth round to claim the belt. However, the victory was marred by a post-fight brawl that erupted between Khabib and McGregor's team, leading to fines and suspensions for both fighters.

Undeterred by the controversy, Khabib continued to defend his title with impressive victories over top contenders like Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje. However, in October 2020, Khabib announced his retirement from MMA, citing personal reasons and a desire to focus on his family and other endeavors.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s MMA promotion - Eagle FC</strong></h2>
One of these endeavors is his role as a promoter for the MMA organization Eagle FC, which he founded in 2019. Drawing on his experience as a fighter and coach, Khabib is working to develop a new generation of talented fighters and promote the sport in his home country of Russia and beyond.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s partnerships and endorsements</strong></h2>
In June 2020, <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-khabib-nurmagomedov-becomes-russias-most-successful-athlete-and-celebrity/#:~:text=For%20the%20second%20time%20in,in%20the%20previous%20fiscal%20year." target="_self" rel="noopener">Forbes Russia</a> announced that Nurmagomedov is the most successful Russian athlete.

In 2019, Khabib announced he was the brand ambassador of a payment service called SalamPay. Apart from that, he is sponsored by big companies like Gorilla Energy, Reebok, and Toyota.

The champion also makes quite a lot of money for special appearances. According to his manager, the Russian charges $300k per day for speaking engagements.

Apart from these, Nurmagomedov owns several brands that he has named after his moniker 'The Eagle'. This includes an MMA promotion known as the 'Eagle Fighting Championship', which conducted its first North American event in 2022.

'The Eagle' also launched a fast-food chain known as M-eat. Currently, the eatery has 14 locations in Russia and plans to venture into neighboring countries in the future.

Despite his ascent to the top, not much has changed when it comes to the Russian's house. Situated in the village of Sildi, Dagestan, Nurmagomedov's humble abode is reportedly nothing that would stand out, but surely has a view to die for. His house dorns neither fancy interiors nor luxury items. According to some local publications of Dagestan, the house boasts two rooms with ottomans and beds, a pantry, and even what they describe as an old refrigerator.

Khabib Nurmagomedov, however, lives in Nurmagomedov Street. Yes! That right. Nonetheless, it was not named after either his or his father's legacy but his Sambo world champion uncle Nurmagomed Nurmagomedov.

But this entire picture changes when it comes to his American homes.

Khabib Nurmagomedov

Khabib Nurmagomedov: Net Worth 2024, MMA Record, Wife, and More Who is Khabib Nurmagomedov? A name that needs no introduction, Khabib Nurmagomedov is a retired MMA fighter who is an absolute legend and retired from the sport undefeated. This combat Sambo specialist is known for his dominant wrestling and grappling skills, alongside extraordinary ground control. via Imago The first Muslim to have won a UFC title, Nurmagomedov&#8217;s influence extends way beyond the octagon, especially in Russia, his home. So here&#8217;s a peek at the life of &#8216;The Eagle&#8217; from the mountains of Dagestan, who vanquished all the UFC middleweight contenders. Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s early life Khabib Abdulmanapovich NurmagomedovÂ was born into an Avar family on September 20, 1988, in Sildi village, located in the Tsumadinsky District of the Dagestan ASSR in the former Soviet Union, which is now part of Russia. His father,Â Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, was a decorated athlete and war veteran. Khabib has two siblings, an older brother namedÂ Muhammad NurmagomedovÂ and a younger sister namedÂ Amina Nurmagomedov. He received his early education in his village&#8217;s local school, where his father guided him in combat training from a young age. When he was fifteen, the family moved to Makhachkala, where he continued wrestling training and began taking judo classes. Khabib found the switch from wrestling to judo difficult, but his father insisted that Khabib learn how to compete in a gi jacket. In addition to his fighting training, Khabib continued his schooling, enrolling in the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics and was a third-year student as of 2019. Despite his academic pursuits, Khabib remained focused on his combat sports career. Khabib Nurmagomedov&#8217;s father was Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov and his mother&#8217;s name is not disclosed. Abdulmanap was a highly respected MMA coach and former wrestler who trained numerous champions, including his own son Khabib. He was known for his innovative training methods and his ability to inspire his fighters to achieve their full potential. He also played a key role in the development of MMA in Dagestan, Russia, where he founded and ran a successful gym. Khabib&#8217;s mother was a homemaker who played a crucial role in supporting her husband&#8217;s coaching career and raising their kids. In fact,Â it was due to his mother&#8217;s promise that Khabib retired from fighting. Sadly, Abdulmanap passed away in 2020 after complications from COVID-19, leaving a legacy that will continue to inspire generations of fighters to come. Â Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s wife and children Khabib Nurmagomedov and his wife Patimat Nurmagomedov tied the knot in June 2013. Not much information is available on his wife as she does not have any social media presence, and Khabib has always maintained privacy regarding his personal life. The couple has three children. Their firstborn was a daughter named Fatima Nurmagomedov, born on 1 June 2015. Two years later, they welcomed a son named Magomed Nurmagomedov, named after Khabib&#8217;s great-grandfather, on 30 December 2017. Another son, Husayn Nurmagomedov, was born on 22 December 2019. Despite Khabib&#8217;s fame as a professional fighter, his family of five lives a private life away from the public eye. They keep their personal life out of the spotlight and focus on spending time together as a family. Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s net worth 2024 Khabib&#8217;s victory over Conor McGregor elevated his status to a Mega Star. He made over $6,640,000 against Conor. However, he was fined $0.5 million for the post-fight brawl. Nurmagomedov was awarded a whopping $6,877,500 for his second title defense against Dustin Poirier. As per reports, &#8216;The Eagle&#8217; has made $21,720,200 in his 13 UFC fights. &#8216;The Eagle&#8217; has an estimated net worth of $40 million. Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s career timeline Khabib Nurmagomedov burst onto the MMA scene with a bang in 2008 when he made his debut. He secured an impressive four wins in just one month, three of which were on a single day. He continued to compete in various tournaments and championships until he set his sights on joining the UFC. After amassing a record of 16 wins outside of the UFC, Khabib finally made his UFC debut in 2012, and it was a resounding success. He defeated Kamal Shalorus by submission in the third round and continued his path of destruction from his previous victories outside the octagon. He went on to defeat the likes of Gleison Tibau, Edson Barboza, Michael Johnson, and Thiago Tavares before embarking on his title run.  via Getty Despite his dominant performances, Khabib&#8217;s championship pursuits were stalled by a series of injuries and missed opportunities. However, he remained steadfast in his training and skill refinement. Eventually, he earned a shot at the UFC lightweight title in 2018 against Al Iaquinta. That fight saw Iaquinta stepping up on short notice, leading to Khabib living his dream. After that, in a highly anticipated showdown with championÂ Conor McGregor, Khabib delivered a dominant performance, submitting his opponent in the fourth round to claim the belt. However, the victory was marred by a post-fight brawl that erupted between Khabib and McGregor&#8217;s team, leading to fines and suspensions for both fighters.  via Getty Undeterred by the controversy, Khabib continued to defend his title with impressive victories over top contenders like Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje. However, in October 2020, Khabib announced his retirement from MMA, citing personal reasons and a desire to focus on his family and other endeavors. Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s MMA promotion &#8211; Eagle FC One of these endeavors is his role as a promoter for the MMA organization Eagle FC, which he founded in 2019. Drawing on his experience as a fighter and coach, Khabib is working to develop a new generation of talented fighters and promote the sport in his home country of Russia and beyond. Khabib Nurmagomedovâ€™s partnerships and endorsements In June 2020, Forbes Russia announced that Nurmagomedov is the most successful Russian athlete. In 2019, Khabib announced he was the brand ambassador of a payment service called SalamPay. Apart from that, he is sponsored by big companies like Gorilla Energy, Reebok, and Toyota. The champion also makes quite a lot of money for special appearances. According to his manager, the Russian charges $300k per day for speaking engagements. Apart from these, Nurmagomedov owns several brands that he has named after his moniker &#8216;The Eagle&#8217;. This includes an MMA promotion known as the &#8216;Eagle Fighting Championship&#8217;, which conducted its first North American event in 2022. &#8216;The Eagle&#8217; also launched a fast-food chain known as M-eat. Currently, the eatery has 14 locations in Russia and plans to venture into neighboring countries in the future.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Paulo Costa?</strong></h2>
Paulo Costa is arguably the most dangerous middleweight of this generation. The Brazilian fighter started his MMA career on the regional circuits of Brazil and eventually fought his way to the UFC. Costa started training in Muay Thai to learn self-discipline, as he often found himself getting involved in street fights.

'Borrachinha' began training under his older brother, who was also a mixed martial artist. He joined a Jiu-Jitsu gym but had to leave it after his father passed away. However, 'Borrachinha' returned to the gym after some time.

Besides that, he got involved in <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.mmafighting.com/2019/8/17/20809028/troublemaker-paulo-costa-endless-quest-greatness-ufc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">real estate</a> and taught Microsoft Excel and Word to support his mother. As of May 2024, he sits at #7 in the UFC middleweight <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.ufc.com/rankings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rankings</a>.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Paulo Costaâ€™s Early Life</strong></h2>
Costa was born 21st of April 1991 to Carlos Roberto and Maria Augusta in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. He also has an elder brother, Carlo Costa. His father Carlos Roberto worked various odd jobs to sustain the family. He sadly passed away after a battle with throat cancer when Costa was only 17. Carlo was also a mixed martial artist, probably setting a precedent for young Paulo, and was also later one of the UFC champs coaches.

Apart from this, Costa's earlier career projects him to be quite tech-savvy. At one point in his life, he used to teach different computer software and similar gigs to help out his family financially. Nonetheless, not much about his educational qualifications is commonly known.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Paulo Costaâ€™s Girlfriend</strong></h2>
Paulo Costa is in a relationship with his l<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-paulo-costas-relationships-all-about-his-girlfriend-tamara-alvez-and-tracy-cortez-rumors/">ong-time girlfriend Tamara Alves</a>, who is quite the boss girl herself. She is a Civil engineer, and much like her partner, she is a fitness freak herself and has incorporated her passion as the founder of <strong>MundoFit</strong>. Her brand focuses on supplements and other fitness accessories.

The pair met each other in 2013, through Alves' cousin's husband, who trained with Costa in the same gym. And in a true rom-com fashion, he introduced "<em>this very handsome guy at the gym" </em>during a jiu-jitsu championship the gym was hosting. And despite greeting each other, they did not talk. However, later while Costa left an impression on Alves, he couldn't muster up the courage to ask for her number and asked her friend for that information instead. A classic!

Apart from this, Alves also reportedly manages his UFC affairs and Costa is reaping the benefits of being able toÂ <em>"kiss the manager."</em>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Paulo Costa: Net Worth and Salary 2024</h2>
Costa is relatively new to the sport. However, he has received a decent amount of money for his fights, and overall, he has made over $938,167 in his UFC career according to <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://thesportsdaily.com/2020/09/27/paulo-costa-career-earnings-fox11/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Sports Daily</a>. This does not include undisclosed bonuses and other sources of income.

As of 2021, he has an estimated net worth of over $1 million, according toÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.mediareferee.com/2020/09/23/paulo-costa-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Media Referee</a>. With more fights coming his way, many sources also estimated it to be double that.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center">Paulo Costa: UFC Career Timeline</h2>
Paulo Costa has an explosive style of fighting. Right off the bat, he puts a tremendous amount of pressure on his opponents. The Brazilian walks his opponents down and lands devastating body strikes that ultimately lead to openings.

Paulo Costa first appeared in the third season of The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil, 2014. Although he won his first bout, 'The Eraser' lost his next fight via a split decision to Marcio Alexandre Jr. Fortunately for him, this loss does not appear on his pro record as it was considered an exhibition match.

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="1200"]<img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-3245111776" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/UFC253_JH_20200927_4238A_2020092693528699.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="800" /> via Imago[/caption]

Paulo Costa did not let the setback from TUF define his career. The middleweight continued racking up victories and went on an eight-fight win streak before joining the UFC. Surprisingly, Costa has garnered a lot of popularity, almost reaching a superstar already.

Costa put himself on the map after decimating former welterweight champion Johny Hendricks at UFC 217. He then stoppedÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/uriah-hall/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Uriah Hall</a> in his tracks and out-muscled Yoel Romero in the following year. His last bout was against <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/israel-adesanya/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Israel Adesanya</a>, where he suffered his first-ever professional loss via technical knockout at UFC 253.

Next, he faced <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/marvin-vettori/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Marvin Vettori</a> at UFC Fight Night: Costa vs. Vettori. Despite losing the bout via decision, he redeemed himself in his next against Luke Rockhold. After this decision win, he fought Robert Whittaker in <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ufc-298-alexander-volkanovski-vs-ilia-topuria/">UFC 298: Volkanovski vs. Topuria</a> on February 17, 2024. Unfortunately, 'The Eraser' lost this fight despite putting up an incredible performance. His current record stands at 14-3-0. Now, he is going to fight Sean Strickland at UFC 302.

Costa might not be the most accurate striker, but every strike he throws is meant to hurt the opposition. He throws a lot of those strikes in the opening rounds. However, this style of fighting has its own drawbacks. As Costa's cardio fades away as the fight progresses, it becomes very difficult for him to put the same pace as the first round. So he might be looking for a finish this time around against the mighty Whittaker.

This does not include undisclosed bonuses and other sources of income. As of 2021, he has an estimated net worth of over $1 million, according toÂ Media Referee. With more fights coming his way, many sources also estimated it to be double that. Paulo Costa: UFC Career Timeline Paulo Costa has an explosive style of fighting. Right off the bat, he puts a tremendous amount of pressure on his opponents. The Brazilian walks his opponents down and lands devastating body strikes that ultimately lead to openings. Paulo Costa first appeared in the third season of The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil, 2014. Although he won his first bout, &#8216;The Eraser&#8217; lost his next fight via a split decision to Marcio Alexandre Jr. Fortunately for him, this loss does not appear on his pro record as it was considered an exhibition match. via Imago Paulo Costa did not let the setback from TUF define his career. The middleweight continued racking up victories and went on an eight-fight win streak before joining the UFC. Surprisingly, Costa has garnered a lot of popularity, almost reaching a superstar already. Costa put himself on the map after decimating former welterweight champion Johny Hendricks at UFC 217. He then stoppedÂ Uriah Hall in his tracks and out-muscled Yoel Romero in the following year. His last bout was against Israel Adesanya, where he suffered his first-ever professional loss via technical knockout at UFC 253. Next, he faced Marvin Vettori at UFC Fight Night: Costa vs. Vettori. Despite losing the bout via decision, he redeemed himself in his next against Luke Rockhold. After this decision win, he fought Robert Whittaker in UFC 298: Volkanovski vs. Topuria on February 17, 2024. Unfortunately, &#8216;The Eraser&#8217; lost this fight despite putting up an incredible performance. His current record stands at 14-3-0. Now, he is going to fight Sean Strickland at UFC 302. Costa might not be the most accurate striker, but every strike he throws is meant to hurt the opposition. He throws a lot of those strikes in the opening rounds. However, this style of fighting has its own drawbacks. As Costa&#8217;s cardio fades away as the fight progresses, it becomes very difficult for him to put the same pace as the first round. So he might be looking for a finish this time around against the mighty Whittaker.
