Frank Mir tops annual list of highest-paid athletes

In 2022 it looked like the athlete’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Tuesday (December 24) that Mir is the highest-paid athlete in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $60 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American athlete has an estimated net worth of $275 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Mir Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Las Vegas Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondermir - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Frank) and a fashion line called “Frank Mir Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Frank fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
