The Amount Of Money Conor Mcgregor Earned Per Second Is Ridiculous

#1 UFC 194 was projected to break records, but no one could have seen this one coming.

#2 In just 13 seconds, Conor McGregor knocked out Jose Aldo for the fastest finish ever in a UFC title fight.

#3 With his quick work, the undisputed featherweight champion will be paid more per second than any other fighter in company history.

Forbes tried to estimate how much McGregor made from the historic bout against Aldo.

#4 By using what Ronda made during her 34 second fight with Bethe Correia. Her total earnings were reported as high as $5 million. Using that ceiling, Rousey made just north of $147,000 per second.

McGregor's contract gives him a cut of pay-per-view shares: a reported $3-$5 for each purchase. Going off the lowest figures in that equation, one million PPV buys with a $3 cut, McGregor would already be getting paid more than $230,000 per second. Add in his $580,000 combined fight and sponsor pay, and that number rises to over $275,000 per second ($3.5 million total).

If McGregor took a $5 PPV cut and 1.5 million PPV buys, he would have earned nearly $622,000 per second ($8 million total).

Basically, he just made a SH*T TON OF MONEY!
