Get money, get paid…
Conor McGregor is in line to earn a whopping amount of money for just turning up for his fight against Jose Aldo tonight.
Tweeting about the purse ahead of the money-spinning bout, ESPN’s Brett Okamoto revealed the amounts that both the Irishman and Brazilian stand to make for appearing at UFC 194.
The No-No-No-No-Notorious will receive $500,000 for showing up, while Aldo will get $400,000 to (hopefully) get his ass kicked. However, McGregor’s opponent will earn an extra $100,000 if he beats the Dubliner.
He’s certainly come a long way from 60gs baby…
Per NSAC *disclosed purses*, Conor McGregor is $500k to show, no win at UFC 194. Jose Aldo $400k to show, $100k to win.
