“The Notorious” Conor McGregor isn’t the richest MMA athlete for no reason, The Irishman made fortunes for himself throughout his career, and now he has something else to add to his wealth.

UFC’s parent company Endeavor Holdings recently went public and Conor acquired a major share in it. UFC was the only fighting promotion that kept on organizing live events, and now they have revealed their half-year turnover.

Conor resorted to Twitter to express his happiness, he wrote, “Endeavors half year turnover announced! $1.1bn. Incredible! Huge congrats to all! 2 fights it took me. Would have loved to keep it going to round out the year but this setback is just the launch pad for my major comeback!! Almost 6 weeks over surgery now! Wow!”

Endeavor targeted an expected turnover of 1.14bn but still, it is pretty good considering their last quarters’ return. UFC president Dana White has worked extremely hard to make this company a big success, he took all the necessary risks to keep the live events going during the pandemic, and it is safe to say that in the end, everything paid off.
