No matter how much McGregor is defeated or in a difficult situation, he always finds a way to keep succeeding.
McGregor was forced to pull out of his big comeback fight on June 29th due to a broken toe, and there’s no indication that the UFC is in a rush to rebook him. That left McGregor in ‘deep mental pain’ during UFC 303 fight week.
However, things have drastically changed since last week. This week, Mac is thriving and experiencing the best moments of his life, amassing millions through successful sports betting ventures.
McGregor made headlines when he announced he was putting $500,000 on former opponent Nate Diaz to beat Jorge Masvidal in their ‘Last Man Standing’ boxing bout. It was a risky bet given some of Nate’s recent performances, but Mystic Mac was convinced the Stockton fighter would ‘do Masvidal in easy.’

Although it was challenging, Diaz managed to secure a majority decision victory, earning “The Notorious” a handsome sum of $1.6 million. Nate took a moment to ponder before expressing his thoughts on the matter to the press.
With a wry smile, he eventually remarked, “That’s pretty cool. Well done for us.”
Conor proclaimed on X (previously known as Twitter), “The wealthy keep growing wealthier! Excellent job, Nate, congratulations! I generate such vast amounts of wealth for you that you could swim in it!”
He specifically set aside the money he won from the sportsbook for ‘Yacht fuel,’ and he might receive more if Spain keeps winning at the Euro 2024 tournament. McGregor wagered $85,000 on Ronaldo’s team to win the entire tournament, with odds of +1100, which would earn him an additional million dollars. Additionally, he placed a $350,000 bet on Argentina to win the Copa America, which would also result in another million-dollar payout.

McGregor is currently relaxing on vacation with his fiancé Dee Devlin in Switzerland. New photos and videos have him enjoying the music at Montreux Jazz Festival, but don’t think he’s forgotten about training. Another video showed McGregor in the gym late Sunday night with the festival blaring less than 50 feet away.
He proudly proclaimed, “While they indulge in festivities, I am dedicated to putting in the effort. Value your well-being or find another place for it! That’s our motto. I embody Irish resilience. I have a considerable amount of work to accomplish, even today. The party may be happening in the backyard, but where can you find me? Right here, still going strong. Late into the night, I’m ready to unlock that gym!”
