Okay, so I was browsing the internet the other day, just killing time, and I stumbled upon this name – Michelle Waterson. I recognized her as an MMA fighter, but I didn’t really know much about her beyond that. Then I saw some stuff about her net worth, and it got me curious. How much is this fighter actually worth? I decided to dig in and find out.
Start Digging
First, I hit up Google. Just a simple search, “Michelle Waterson net worth,” to get a general idea. You know how it is, the first few results are always a mixed bag. Some websites said one thing, others said another. It was all over the place, with numbers ranging from like $1 million to $5 million. Not very helpful for getting a clear picture.
Check Some Sources
So, I decided to check out some of the more reliable sources I know for this kind of info. I went to a couple of sports news sites and some financial websites that usually have decent estimates. They were a little more consistent, but still not completely in agreement.
- Some sports sites were mostly talking about her fight earnings, which made sense. They listed her purses for different fights, which adds up but doesn’t tell the whole story.
- Financial sites were more focused on her endorsements, which she has. I’ve seen her in some sports ads.
Put It Together
After looking at all this, I started to piece things together. It’s pretty clear she’s made a good chunk of money from her fights in the UFC. Each fight gets you a decent amount, and she’s had a bunch. Then there are her sponsorships. She’s been the face for a few brands, and that definitely adds to her income. Plus, she’s got some businesses, I think, so there is passive income, right?.
My Best Guess
So, what’s my guess for Michelle Waterson’s net worth? It’s tough to say for sure without having access to her actual financial records, but based on everything I found, I’d say it’s probably somewhere in the $2 million to $3 million range. It could be a little higher or lower, but that feels like a reasonable estimate.
It was a fun little research project. It’s always interesting to see how much these athletes are worth, especially someone like Michelle Waterson, who’s had such a long and successful career. It’s clear she’s done well for herself, both inside and outside the octagon.
