The full fight card salaries have been released for all fighters who took part in the massive event that was Floyd Mayweather versus Conor McGregor.

On Aug. 26, Floyd Mayweather took on Conor McGregor in a fight for the ages that saw both men leave with respect for one another and their pockets deeper than ever before.

While we didn’t get a clear estimate of who took home what until a few days before the fight, it was revealed that Mayweather and McGregor would be getting a guaranteed $100 and $30 million respectively for their efforts.

They certainly earned every penny.

In a fight that started off with McGregor being the aggressor, the world held its breath as it appeared he may have had what it took to defeat Mayweather. But in true Mayweather fashion, he waited until it was his turn to turn up the heat and started landing at will once McGregor became fatigued in the later rounds.

The fight was stopped in the 10th round with Mayweather getting the TKO victory, which improved his record to 50-0 and handed McGregor the very first loss of his boxing career.

After this fight, Mayweather became the world’s first boxer to make over $1 billion in career earnings. An accomplishment like this has only ever been done by a few elite athletes, which includes the likes of Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods.

Despite losing inside the ring, McGregor is far from a loser outside of it. In his most fight in the UFC, McGregor made a cool $3 million in his all-out war with archrival Nate Diaz. It took him one fight in the boxing world to make ten times that amount.
