Francis Ngannou Net Worth, Career Earnings and UFC Heavyweight Champion’s MMA record

Francis Ngannou’s unexpected ascent in the MMA world has been astounding. Ngannou was born and reared in Batie, Cameroon, and at the age of ten, he was forced to move in with his aunt instead of his parents. He was solicited by various gangs while working in a sand quarry to join them. He turned down all of those opportunities, though, and at the age of 22, he began to focus on boxing.

He spent months homeless after arriving in France. Then, a buddy connected Ngannou to Fernand Lopez and the MMA factory. Ngannou became fully engrossed in MMA and began sleeping and training there. Fernand Lopez even loaned Ngannou some of his MMA gear. At 100% Fight in 2013, he made his professional MMA debut and he currently fights in the UFC.

Francis Ngannou’s net worth

The estimated net worth of Francis Ngannou is $4 million. In the octagon, he is often regarded as the world’s most terrifying guy, and for good reason. The consensus among analysts is that following his victory over Stipe Miocic, no man is capable of defeating him inside the octagon last year. Ngannou has faced several challenges in order to reach the top of the food chain. 

Ngannou, who comes from a lowly background, has never been forthright about his financial aspirations in any interview. The heavyweight did, however, comment on the difficulties in the negotiations between the UFC and Jon Jones and provided an indication as to his goals.

Francis Ngannou’s career earnings

Ngannou barely made any money when he first entered the UFC. But his match with Miocic earned him a whopping $530,000. Since that time, he has been paid more than average. The Sports Daily estimates that he has made $2,157,500 throughout his career. He allegedly received $22,500 for the battle, which included a $2,500 Reebok sponsorship, $10,000 to show, and a $10,000 victory bonus.

When Ngannou faced Stipe Miocic in a rematch for the heavyweight championship at UFC 260, it was the largest payday of his career. His overall payout of $580,000 consisted of $500,000 to show, a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus, and $30,000 in incentive pay for the fight week. Francis Ngannou has endorsed a number of companies, including Cryo Pain Relief, CBD Research Labs, and Gym King Fight Division.

Francis Ngannou’s MMA record

He was signed by the UFC in 2015 after accumulating a 5-1 record with the promotion. He currently has a record of 17-3-0 in the UFC. Stipe Miocic and Derrick Lewis prompted the two UFC defeats. He did, however, triumph over Stipe Miocic in their much-awaited rematch at UFC 260 for the heavyweight title.
