Khabib, a two-time world champion in combat sambo and a former UFC lightweight champion, is worth $40 million. And once more, the gap between McGregor and Khabib is wide; until he lost all of his money, like Mike Tyson, he will always be ahead of him.
Business acumen
Speaking of wealth, Khabib has built himself a large fortune through his various business endeavours, which include mixed martial arts facilities, a sports management firm, a cell phone network, and a chain of fast food restaurants. Not to mention, he also manages his own mixed martial arts promotion. McGregor, on the other hand, has also picked up a lot of business and is far ahead.
McGregor is a terrific fighter, but he’s also a smart businessman. One of the fastest-growing whisky brands is the Irish whisky Proper No. Twelve, established by McGregor. He also has a media company named “The Mac Life” as well as an apparel brand. The media outlet covers all of the significant combat sports events. And due to the way everything is going, McGregor clearly has excellent business sense.
More popular in the entertainment industries
A few talented and entertaining sportsmen have shown to be excellent at the microphone, which only serves to increase their likeability. A refreshing change was sportsmen like The Rock and Muhammad Ali, who were just wonderful. There is no doubt that McGregor is funnier and more entertaining as a result, whether or not you like him.
In addition, his fight with Floyd Mayweather in a cross-over boxing contest helped him achieve prominence in the boxing world, where he also made millions. Moreover, McGregor will make his acting debut with Jake Gyllenhaal in the newest Road House adaptation on Amazon Prime. This reveals a lot about his popularity.
More World titles
Even though Khabib defeated McGregor, The Irishman has more MMA world championships than Khabib. McGregor has won two Cage Championships in addition to his two UFC titles. Khabib, meanwhile, has only ever won one UFC championship.
