Conor McGregor Is The Highest Paid Athlete In The World | Forbes
Video Overview & Insights
For much of 2020, the world’s leading athletes were sidelined, working for reduced pay, playing to empty seats or isolated in competitive bubbles designed to thwart a pandemic that has sapped billions of dollars from professional sports.
260M --- cr7 HPA
But despite that, the ten highest-paid athletes in the world took home pretax gross earnings of $1.05 billion during the past 12 months, 28% more than last year’s top earners. At the top of that list is Irish mixed-martial artist Conor McGregor, with a total of $180 million over the last 12 months.

Ma secondo me Forbes non e' attendibile. Questa notizia dei 180 milioni di dollari e' fasulla. E' impossibile che un atleta di MMA guadagni quella somma. Se l'introito e' come imprenditore ok.. ma non come atleta. Forbes cita "atleta"

Two black people in the top 5 on FORBES and they are STILL bitching about being oppressed. Lebron bought a stake in the Red Sox and still cries oppression. LOL!! These people want control, not equality.

@tatendazuzeAnd here Mayweather is fighting YouTube influencers for $10mill lol
@thewatchtherapist5066Is it me or the title is somehow incorrect? Alcohol not being related to sports, money made in 2020 through the sale of his stake in whisky should not be conflated with sports income. But I guess the same indicators have apply to all previous holders.

@mr.authentic2505Year is not over mayweather is gonna be on top again once he does that exhibition with logan paul
@RavageEffexAll that money those athletes make is still not going to make their life happier..actually it's a curse up to a point and can change their behavior and attitude. You don't see many of them giving big lumps of it excluding ( Manny Pacquiao) that's why he's the pride of the Philippines and likely their next PRESIDENT who is much needed to silence the corruption and long history of theiving prior Presidents. Pacquiao gave his life to the Lord and a devout Christian who still wears that happy smile because he is in fact a happy man with a blessed family. It'd be awesome to see more of Atheletes giving big lumps of their earnings for charity and people in desperate need of even the bare neccessities to live an abundant life.❤🙏🙏❤
@randybatchelor1875Mayweather about to buy a Island 🏝.
