Conor McGregor was named the highest paid athlete last year by Forbes, beating out the likes of Roger Federer, Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo. McGregor gained a big chunk of his revenue from selling his whiskey brand Proper No. Twelve that sold for over $600 Million to Proximo Spirits.

McGregor reportedly pulled in over $150 million from the sale which help him surpass Federer for the top spot.
