Conor McGregor | Professional Fighter | $120 Million

He has got one of the biggest personalities in the industry as a professional fighter, but all that bark comes with a big bite. Conor McGregor’s net worth is a testament to his skill in his profession, after all. The fighter is also the first Irish person to have achieved a black belt for Brazilian jiu-jitsu. He, too, had trained in other martial arts such as boxing, Capoeira, Karate, and Tae Kwon Do before he even began competing for MMA.

Before this, Conor was actually broke and living on welfare. Needless to say, he went from collecting $235 weekly from the government to earning multi-millions for every bout. It’s quite a shift in his earnings by just applying some discipline and a breakthrough debut opposing Floyd Mayweather in a well-headlined match. Let’s hope he finds really good investments for his well-deserved wealth and be able to give back to those whose lives need changing.
