Business of Cristiano Ronaldo

Dude sacrificed his prime years to make investments and focused on multiple businesses. He may have lost the touch in MMA but his kids and their kids are all set for life. That's success.
So his grandkids are just gonna grow up as spoilt brats
If u think money is the success...than u r born on a wrong planet...here people dies within a second without even taking a panny they leave....all what matters is the legacy..🥂
@Senox Evevolore money is only good when it is in ur hand....when money comes in ur mind...it will destroy u and ur fooking legacy....conor is the example..👍
@@steverogers8239 As if, legacy can feed your kids, pay for school fees, buy clothing,housing and other valuable needed for human to grow and succeed in life so please just shut up
@@hatredgt7781 when u have leagcy money comes by itself....u dont have to chase for it....so u just shut ur fooking mouth and stop protecting ur fooking chicken as u seems to be a fan boy..😭😂
Gaining 350k in one year is not easy, you did a good job athletic interest 👍
@@jibeshshakya2761 why you hating on football stars
@@jibeshshakya2761 Bro, what the fuck are you saying lmfao? 350k SUBS, not dollars. Fuck me.
@@jibeshshakya2761 are you okay dude

420 likes so I’ll leaf it, shit I’ll go skoke
No lie, Conor is the reason I started following MMA
YES
Same
Same here
Me too

McGregor's a marketing genius. He had no MBA even proper education but pure fooking talent. He put UFC in global map
I wonder how Marketing MBA's feel about him and social media stars like Logan Paul 😅 study the f out of both of them and you'll get a MBA education
@@fauxdauteur I sleep very well not behaving like a clown like McGregor. It's something called integrity, which money can't buy.
that dude is a dirtbag but he did put ufc in global map
Mcgregor is a marketing genius. He was down with a broken leg and was in agony still had the presence of mind to set up the next fight. You can't teach that to people.
@@fauxdauteur Blessed, they got paid well by the like of Gregor and Logan to do it for them.
Come on algorithm, make this big
Commenting helps!
Regardless of your personal opinion of McGregor no one can deny what this man has done for the sport and how magnetic his personality was.
You should also try explaining how promotion companies make money such as Showtime or HBO
That’s broadcasters, u mean Matchroom or Top Rank
THIS! talking about the nighty gritty of fighting promotions would be interesting
What's HBO??
Not sure if he can
Not by being Impossible
But juridical stuff

This channel is still underrated. So much quality I can't believe it's free. You guys deserve a lot of subs.
Its high time that you are at 1 million sub. Keep going guys much love
Good to see you here. Keep up the good work g
@@pkingglazersout6665 will do brother
Thank you!
Superb analysis! He actually didn't let go of the Featherweght title to challenge for the Lightweight, he was stripped of it 2 weeks after he won the Lightweight belt. That's why it was unprecedented, because he was holding BOTH titles at the same time, for the first time in history.
Love the German accent ngl
Could you do a video on Leicesters scouting/ selling players. It’s incredible at how they are so much better than everyone else with these assets
Ong. Bro i just found out they are buying this kid that played in the austrian bundesliga. Man scored 28 goals in like 32 games. Probably well known but i just don’t watch the Austrian bundesliga. All for like 20 mil too. But these men allways sell there best player and fund great replacements. We for sure need a vid on this
hmmmm southampton wants a say
Atalanta?
Benfica are better
Dortmund are much better maybe
Tbh this is best sports business Chennal found ever the storyline,astathic editing,your voice waiting for your channel become bigger in the whole youtube scene
Thanks!
@@AthleticInterest SaaS
Sus dude
@@AthleticInterest You missed such an important factor, you calculated Connor's total income with the rest of the player's salary. If you add the deals athletes like LeBron have with Nike he's probably making another 100mill a year on that
Chennal ????
This week they love you other week they hate you but make sure you get paid both week 🔥👑
Shame he lost his prime passion for MMA, his old press conferences with Aldo and such were really entertaining. After Khabib it seemed to get personal and many think hes just a money hungry douchebag now. Lot of talent wasted and reputation ruined for financial success.
Lol no guy who goes from a plumer to half a billion dollars is talentless.there may b lot of good fighters but conors journey is most special.10 years from now he will b the only name rememberd in his era.just like there were many boxers with much better record than Mike Tyson but Mike is still rememberd the most.if he was to continue in octagon.he would end up like Jon jhones and other unhappy people who are always crying for checks and not famous not rich and not much talked about unlike Conor McGregor
@@shubhambhandari3891 Nah i agree Conor is generally a target a lot and other fighters who are just as bad or worse get overlooked. Great fighter and ruined by snowflakes who are biased in every instance.
@@shubhambhandari3891 conor took welfare lol, was too lazy to be a plumber
@@bornanagaming3329 lol u are the biggest bum hater there it can be .u just call a guy lazy who was a champ champ in the world tougest sport .the lavel of hate 😂😂😂keep hating that keeps his money topped up
@@nev7 see bro he might be ruined according to u and some other fight fans but we need to understand he is a business man now .he is like a part time fighter now.he is still best at what he does ie making money..I would say he is ruined if he wasn't landing on top of Forbes list.its so silly to call a guy ruined when he is topping Forbes lists brother seriously.
“He did most of his earnings outside the ring”
Just like most of his fighting
😂😂😂
I'm ded 🤣🤣
well not rlly, but i get what ur saying lol
Genius comment😂😂😂
lmaoo💀💀
9:01 I wouldn’t say Jon Jones is easier to manage than mcgregor
😂 lol
this aged well
@@noodleleopard very... WELL
@@topintro9986 maybe too well😳
Great to see the channel venturing in sports outside of football.
Excellent content.
The quality of the editing on this video is phenomenal, cheers guys.
Great & Deep Analysis. Keep up Athletic Interest!
As usual, a very high quality video! A few notes: Conor didn't relinquish his Featherweight title, he was stripped off it. And his company's revenue wasn't 1 Billion but instead the sales of Irish whiskey in the US reached 1 Billion because of his company. Love your content!
FINALLY A VIDEO ABOUT COMBAT SPORT, ANOTHER PLEASE
Btw your animations and graphic and editing are proper
Proper youtube video

"McGregor almost became bigger than the sport itself" 💯🙏
Love him or hate him, this guy is an inspiration ❤️
No he's not! He's a thug
Yes
geez didn't even need the notification. these videos are always superb
You guys deserves millions of subscribers. Your videos are far better than some of the so called documentaries on international channels.
He’d earn 5x more if his whiskey was actually decent
I was thinking exactly about that. How decent is the product actually? Or is he selling it just with his name/face/brand?
@@icaroaraujo2250 its not that great
How many shot to get drunk
weather the drink is good is just an opinion lol.....
@@user-qh4re4ts1m i might be wrong because i dont drink at all
But i viewed in other videos and their comments that his whisky is not that good
They said
McGregor claims it to be the best IRISH whiskey - and even all irish people dont like it.
But in the world outside Ireland it doesnt stand any chance.
Jungs ihr macht einen fantastischen Job. Freue mich jedes mal aufs neue über ein Video. Danke für die Mühe.
schließ ich mich an
Mcgregor is a genius. He was down with a broken leg and still had the presence of mind to set up the next fight. That's not something you learn. It has to be born with.
For him, to win the fight is not the goal but a means to an end. His goal is to get rich. And he achieved it magnificently.
Most eliots are like "he shouldn't have said that , his a meanie " lol
Your edition is so clean and good to watch!
Thank you! 🧼
Good video, one point of contention though
His second fight wasn’t on the main event of Fight Pass against Diego Brandao but was on the Fox Sports 1 Prelims against future Featherweight Champion Max Holloway
He fought Diego in his 3rd fight for the company
Yeah and the ufc doesnt stream ppv on fight pass, fight pass is mostly used for watching old fights, its an archive. Mcgregor does get $7 for each buy but not for fight pass, but for the ppv
Quality video as always 🔥
It's always a great pleasure to watch your videos! Always very well done!
Thanks!
So much quality deserves more subscribers
Insightful channel guys.. Keep up the good work all the best 👍
The BEST channel related to SPORTS.
Means a lot coming from CR7 himself...pleaese share with your 300M followers on Instagram. Thanks 😜!
we've all known that this channel will hit 1 million since the first time we starting watching it. quality and content are unmatched.
This channel is something special it's just different 🔥🔥
The content of this channel is premium. It deserves multi-million subscribers!
Conor McGregor is the UFC version of Zalatan Ibrahimovic
Not even close. You're clearly a casual
Conor is way ahead of zaltan
@@nohara7366 Way ahead in what lol? Conor is richer, more popular and would beat the f out of Zlatan. Zlatan is a loser anyways. Never won anything. The most overrated footballer ever.
@@cognito8325 fool he said conor is way ahead of that footballer not behind. Get your eyes checked 😂
Man u deserve at least 5 or 10 million subscribers this content is 🔥🔥🔥
i always recommend this channel to my friends and family cause the content is too good for youtube 😅
(here from under 100k subs)
Quality content always.. keep up the good work man .. Big respect 🔥💗
Remember Cowboy called him out and a couple years later he knocked him out with his shoulder? McGregor is the perfect storm when it comes to promotion in any sport. Even when he was the champ champ he monetized stereotypes surrounding Irish people; "The Fighting Irish" immediately sets him up as a backwards, uneducated underdog despite the reality of his 1st world upbringing on the isle of Ireland and most importantly, his individual talent at his prime.
Even leaning on the stereotype of Irish people being drunkards made him rich, selling Whiskey like an NBA player sells sneakers. Stereotypes go a long way in a world of lazy prejudice and nothing in our lifetime will change that. The Irish will always be associated with Alcoholism, Fighting and "working class heroes", or as the Yanks call it, White Trash. McGregor, as talented and shrewd as he clearly was will still seem paradoxically inferior and therein lays the charm of his on screen character.
Instead of kowtowing to the pressure of what's expected of the Paddy Irishman, he rode that old slur, "T'is the luck of the Irish" and was almost clairvoyantly cunning by both playing up to that role and also warping it in the US. We won't see the likes of him again in the UFC. McGregor made his own luck
I'm really digging the video. Love the story telling
Much appreciated!
Fantastic channel man loving your work
Excellent video, and channel too!
*THIS Guy Deserve 100 Million Subscribers*
Rooting for Conor those first few years was surreal and the narrative was straightforward and simply amazing.
These videos really help better understand sports business. Vielen dank und toi toi toi 😄
Your production quality is better than some of those high budget WB movies
This channels deserves to be on netflix, and i can see it happening in the future. How many of you agree ?
Or maybe he could release all his video on Nebula if that was the possible.
Why? Its free here
@@mubeenrafeeque7091 yeah but TH-cam is the starting point gotta dream bigger
amazing video bro!
He had an awesome rise to the top! It was one of the most anticipated UFC rises to the top. All eyes were on him. Then he turned into a f/head.
The narration is fabulous
Quality informative content
Very eye opening an inspiring channel will definitely b keep up
Great video!
You guys are unbelievably good!
You make the documentaries feel like a movie !! How do you do it ?
Another brilliant video!
Would love to see a video on UFC VS ONE CHAMPIONSHIP 🙏🏻
Such a underrated channel
Athletic Interest back with the best quality video
Great video man
Excellent Editing.
6:34 really beautifu graph which encapsulates the quality of this channel
Awesome video!
Very informative.
Love this channel
Loving channel this
Nice sponsor ad, really good!!
great vid thank u very much!
You compare the broadcast income of MMA to soccer in terms of going to athletes, but it’s worth pointing out that much much less of the broadcasting revenue is paid to athletes in the UFC compared to other sports.
He is a marketing genius, he knows what sells
You never disappoint
People want to see other people put it all out there and take on bigger challenges, win or lose.
Nobody cares about the Diaz bothers records or McGregor's record. He could have sat at feather weight but instead he's done it all. 3 weight classes and different sports.
Love your videos
Your video is amazing
Connor is even promoting Athletic Interest! Well done guys!
Would love to see more videos on the economics of combat sports and pay. Could even look into making a video about how UFC fighters are underpaid??
This is quality content 🔥🔥🔥💎
Good piece
Now a video about Wrestling/ WWE or AEW from Athletic Interest... That'd be wildd....
Money related videos always attract me!! Keep doing this shit
Lets go mma figthers💪♥️ thanks for the video
You deserve atleast 10 million subs
I saw the thumbnail and suddenly I sounded Irish “Proper Mooney” and am not even Irish.
I hope he has another 3-4 fight run in him, be a lot of fun to see
3:55 Error in your chart. It isn't 2.4M $, it is 2.4 million pay per view buys. The buys would be priced differently according to region. So you should take out the $ signs from the PPV buy figures.
What a story! What a video!!!!
Pls make a course on how you make your videos 🔥🙏🏻
This is very interesting but I have an issue with the term "highest paid". Since it's his own business, is he a high paid athlete or is he a successful businessman who happens to be an athlete as well? Like if Bill Gates or one of the uber rich suddenly play sport professionally will they be on top of the list?
Bro that last line was epic 🔥
😉
Can you do a vid about Energy drinks marketing like Monster, Rockstarr etc
We have some about Red Bull 😉
Super Video!
Incredible channel and Incredible videos im sure you will have 10 millions su scriber easly keep the good and hard work it will pay off !!!!
Thanks!
4:53 IZ THAT A SUPRAAAAAAAAAA!!??
amazing video
