Yair Rodriguez Net Worth, Career Earnings & Endorsement Deals: ‘El Pantera’ Boasts $7 Million Net Worth – originally posted on Sportslens.com

‘El Pantera’ fell just short in his bid to become UFC Featherweight Champion on July 8 at UFC 290. Now, here at SportsLens, we have decided to take an in-depth look at the career of the Mexican MMA superstar, Yair Rodriguez. This includes his net worth, career earnings and endorsement deals.

Yair Rodriguez Net Worth Estimated At $7 Million

Yair Rodriguez fell short in his attempt to win the UFC Featherweight Title against Alexander Volkanovski in the main event on July 8 at UFC 290 at the T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada.

In the aftermath of the bout, here at SportsLens we have decided to take an in-depth look at Yair Rodriguez’s net worth, career earnings and sponsorship deals. Yair Rodriguez’s net worth is estimated to be in the region of $7 million.

The 30-year-old is worth an absolute fortune and is a huge celebrity in his home country. The Mexican MMA sensation has won 15 professional fights, including 10 inside the UFC. Not only that, but he is one of the most recognisable names in the UFC.

Essentially Sports now estimates his net worth to be at least $7 million, based on his lifetime earnings. Rodriguez has had an outstanding career so far, and looks to further solidify his legacy by winning the UGC Featherweight Title next year – if indeed ‘The Great’ moves up to lightweight and the 145-pound strap becomes vacant.

Since winning his first fight in the UFC almost a decade ago, ‘El Pantera’ has earned over $2 million dollars. More about Rodriguez’s career earnings later in this article.

The Mexican’s net worth has also been heavily enhanced through ventures outside of the octagon too. His other main earners outside of MMA come through his various endorsements. Again, more on that later.

The career of Yair Rodriguez has been an incredibly successful one thusfar, with ‘El Pantera’ looking to write his name into the UFC history books in the future, if he is to get another short at UFC gold next year.

Yair Rodriguez Career Earnings

Ever since Yair Rodriguez signed for the UFC, he has gradually earned more money as his career has progressed. For his first UFC fight against Leonardo Morales, Rodriguez was paid around $17,500.

Compare Rodriguez’s UFC debut purse to his last few fights. For his Interim UFC Featherweight Title clash with Josh Emmett at UFC 284, ‘El Pantera’ reportedly pocketed $270,000. This emphasizes just how big of a star the Mexican has become in recent years in the UFC.

The Mexican’s largest career purse of course came last time out as he challenged Alexander Volkanovski for the UFC Featherweight Title at UFC 290. ‘El Pantera’ reportedly pocketed a guaranteed $532,000 for his bout with Volkanovski, despite losing the contest. He could earn another $500,000+ depending on what his share of the PPV was too (source: totalsportal.com).

Just inside the octagon and in his career in the UFC, Yair Rodriguez has earned $2,132,500 according to mmasalaries.com.

The second biggest purse of Yair Rodriguez’s career to date in the UFC came last time out at UFC 284 against Josh Emmett. Rodriguez reportedly earned a guaranteed base salary of $100,000. However, all in all he pocketed an additional $110,000 on top of that from performance bonuses, a win bonus and a percentage of the pay-per-view sales.

Several other high caliber fights of Rodriguez’s career have earned him a fortune too in recent years.  For example, Rodriguez’s fight with The Korean Zombie at UFC Fight Night earned him in excess of $225,000. His rematch with Jeremy Stephens also paid him almost $200,000. He also reportedly earned $211,000 two fights ago against Brian Ortega.
