How Much Will Max Holloway Earn?
Max Holloway enters the biggest payday of his UFC career. The former featherweight champion has built one of the most respected careers in UFC history, but this fight represents a different financial level due to McGregor's ability to drive revenue.
Holloway is expected to earn between $3 million and $6 million from the bout.
| Fighter | Purse | Estimated Total Earnings |
|---|---|---|
| Conor McGregor | $15 million (Guranteed) | $32 million (including PPV bonuses) |
| Max Holloway | $3 million (Guranteed) | $5 to $6 million (including PPV bonuses) |
His 2021 double-header against Dustin Poirier earned him around $20 million in the second fight and approximately $32 million in the trilogy bout, making it his biggest UFC payday.
However, McGregor's career-high payday came outside the Octagon when he faced Floyd Mayweather in a 2017 boxing superfight, where he reportedly earned around $100 million after PPV revenue and bonuses.
