How does Khabib Nurmagomedov have a net worth of 100m when Dana doesn't pay fighters?

[HitmanTommy]

It was recently revealed that Khabib's net worth is 100 million.

I understand how Mcgregor has a networth of around that amount due to the Mayweather fight, but how does Khabib have this big of a net worth?

The differences in pay between Boxing and the UFC is often exaggerated. Like Boxing the UFC is very top heavy when it comes to pay with the less popular fighters sometimes making chump change but that applies to a lot of boxers as well.

The UFC for whatever reason is more secretive with their purses. The "official" purse for Jon Jones for example will be only 500k-800k but Jones admitted he's been making 5 million a fight but he still wants more.

That’s a statement I don’t believe.

His income is from fighting. And he didn’t make anything near that.

That’s Mayweather McGregor Pacquiao canelo money.

[TheMyspaceDayz]

Yeah, he’s nowhere near that.

Where do you get this sh it that he doesn’t pay fighters they make more than boxers not named canelo ggg pac and Floyd
I’m not saying they get paid fair because UFC does low ball ones worth but the first fight on the ppv cards make way more than the first fighter on boxing ppv cards

[Chuckguy]

But to answer your question tommy no way
He is probably around the $15-$20 mili range

[KillaMane26]

It says his father claims his networth is that high.... 80 to 100 mil.

I dont see any other official reports only these claims from his father.....so.....

He must be a big star overseas. He could have some endorsement deals that are valuable.

[MulaKO]

I wouldn’t believe it
He’s gotta have huge endorsements which would be known
Even 50 million would be out of range

[Albanianboxing]

He was nowhere on the Forbes 100 Highest Paid Athletes List. Tyson Fury is the Highest Paid Fighter in the World right now. 4 boxers were in the Top 30 Highest Paid Athletes List. Only one mma fighter was in the top 100.
