Middleweight star Sharaputdin Magomedov has captivated not only the UFC but the entire MMA audience with his unique fighting style in his run in the promotion so far. With his growing status as one of the most exciting fighters on the entire roster, fans might wonder if his bank account has seen a bump as well. The Dagestan native will be returning to action at UFC on ABC 9 against Marc-Andre Barriault in Abu Dhabi, but before that, we’ll be taking a look at his financial status as of 2025.

For the unversed, ‘Shara Bullet’ had battled a crippling financial situation before his UFC advent. The 31-year-old has mentioned in the recent past that he even had problems with money after he got married, which led him to curb some of his wife’s needs. But now, the 185er is in a much better place, so let’s take a look at how much he’s worth and all the sources of his income as a UFC fighter.

Sharaputdin Magomedov’s net worth and endorsements

 Well, it looks like there’s no correct estimation available when it comes to Sharaputdin Magomedov’s net worth. Various sources have different numbers, but the consensus is that the undefeated star’s net worth could float around the $200,000 mark. Apart from his earnings from the fights, Magomedov also gets paid for the sale of his merchandise as well.

Moreover, Magomedov could also be earning a hefty sum after he revealed that he was approached to take on the role of a villain in a Hollywood movie. On the other hand, the 15-0 middleweight contender also has his fair share of endorsements. The most known deals he has is with the combat sports apparel brand, ‘Full Violence’.

Magomedov’s career earnings and beyond

Sharaputdin Magomedov recently received the biggest payday of his whole career when he fought Armen Petrosyan at UFC 308. After earning a bonus due to an emphatic double-spinning back fist knockout win, ‘Shara Bullet’ took home an impressive $234,500 cheque as reported by BETMGM.com. After getting that sum, the 15-o undefeated fighter decided to gift his coach a gold-plated iPhone, which signaled the fact that he was in a better financial position than before.

When it comes to Magomedov’s lowest UFC payout, he received that payday in his debut fight at UFC 294 against Bruno Silva. Unlike his KO win over Petrosyan, this one went to the distance, and due to a standard scrap, Magomedov couldn’t earn any bonus on this night. Reportedly, the 31-year-old banked a payout of around $44,000, which was a couple of thousand dollars more than his opponent. But what about his earnings in a fight that marked the end of his undefeated streak?

How much did Sharaputdin Magomedov earn against MVP at UFC Riyadh?

After starting his UFC career with 4 straight wins, Sharaputdin Magomedov suffered his first loss, both in MMA and inside the Octagon, at UFC Fight Night 250. He faced Michael “Venom” Page in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and dropped a unanimous decision.

But while he lost the fight, he didn’t walk away empty-handed. In fact, it may have been one of his highest paydays to date.

Based on disclosed figures and past Fight Night trends in Saudi Arabia, Magomedov earned $300,000 for the bout. MVP, on the other hand, took home $250,000. It’s a big jump from the standard pay scales in North America, and it reflects how events in Saudi Arabia often deliver fatter checks for UFC athletes.
