Conor McGregor is reportedly in serious negotiations to buy the adult subscription website OnlyFans. The deal, valued at about $6 billion, was initially in progress between OnlyFans owner Leonid Radvinsky and Forest Road Company, a Los Angeles investment firm. However, the former UFC champion has now joined the race to acquire the platform. McGregor shared a post hinting at these ongoing talks.
Leonid Radvinsky, a Ukrainian-American businessman, made his fortune by founding the adult webcamming site MyFreeCams in 2004. He acquired a 75% stake in OnlyFans’ parent company, Fenix International Ltd., in 2018 from its British founders, Tim and Guy Stokely.
McGregor, 36, has grown his fortune not only from fighting but also through smart investments. Forbes estimates his net worth at around $31 million, though some sources suggest it could be closer to $150 million. His business ventures include the Proper 12 Irish Whiskey brand, launched in 2018 and named after his Dublin postal district. McGregor sold most of his stake in Proper 12 in a deal worth roughly $500 million, reportedly earning about $120 million. Despite selling the brand to Proximo Spirits in 2021, McGregor remains a prominent promoter of the whiskey.
In addition, McGregor owns a business empire in Ireland, including The Blackforge Inn, a pub in Dublin. He invested around $2.5 million to purchase and renovate the venue, which also serves as a promotional backdrop for his whiskey and stout brands on social media.
