MMA fighters get worldwide renown by competing in the world’s largest MMA promotion, the UFC. However, only a few fighters capitalize on their fame and create a business for themselves outside of boxing. Such endeavors also help them sustain themselves once they leave the promotion or stop fighting professionally. Fighters like Khabib Nurmagomedov, Conor McGregor, and Jorge Masvidal, to mention a few, have done well outside of the UFC. However, a lesser-known name is the UFC welterweight fighter, Matt Brown.
Brown is famous for his outstanding UFC record and his latest spat with Conor McGregor. However, the UFC fighter recently stated that he had reached a significant milestone in his real estate firm, which pleased fight fans.
Fans react to Matt Brown’s new accomplishment
Matt Brown took to his official Twitter account to announce that he has made over a million dollars in real estate now. He also stated that a few years ago, his net worth was zero after his divorce. He wrote:
“Just closed on another short term rental property and I officially own over a million dollars in real estate now. Not a crazy high number but is pretty awesome number to me considering I had almost zero net worth a few years ago (divorce).”

Matt Brown’s Beef with Conor McGregor
Matt Brown defeated Court McGee via a first-round knockout in May. With this win, he became the UFC fighter with the most wins via knockout alongside heavyweigh6t star Derrick Lewis.
Following his achievement, the former dual-weight UFC champion Conor McGregor announced on Twitter that he will break this record. However, his words didn’t sit well with Brown.
He instantly challenged McGregor to a fight. He also threw shade at the former UFC champion in his interview with MMAFighting by calling it irrelevant. McGregor later followed with a personal jab at the welterweight.
The Irishman called him a drug addict. But later deleted the tweet. McGregor’s tweet was aimed at Brown’s past problems with addiction. However, the beef seems to have cooled down for now.
