‘The Boston Finisher’ has not been able to touch the million-dollar mark in the UFC so far. He has been stuck in the six-figure payouts since 2019. The most amount of payment Calvin Kattar ever made was from his fight against Giga Chikadze, which he won. The 36-year-old raked in $256,000, including a $50,000 performance bonus. Kattar’s second biggest earnings were from his fight against Josh Emmett. Although he lost the battle, the Methuen native made a total of $161,000, with another $50,000 bonus.
The paychecks came in thick and fast as Calvin Kattar pocketed $135,000 from his fight against former champion Max Holloway at UFC Fight Island 7. It was another loss, but he bagged another $50,000 bonus and a total of $135,000. After looking at his top three payouts, we can estimate that Kattar could make up to a quarter of a million dollars from his upcoming fight against Aljamain Sterling at UFC 300. Now, let us explore his net worth and total career earnings so far.

There is no exact number as to what the net worth of Calvin Kattar could be. However, reports estimate his net worth is around $500,000 to $1,000,000. It is comparably low when we consider some of the others. But if we examine the top earners, they have established themselves as PPV main event fighters, something Kattar failed to accomplish.
In addition to not earning a million-dollar paycheck in the UFC, ‘The Boston Finisher’ has fallen short of reaching the million-dollar mark in career earnings. Calvin Kattar has competed in a total of 30 MMA fights and has earned an estimated total of $729,000 combined from all those fights.

We can argue that the UFC 300 fight against Aljamain Sterling will be Calvin Kattar’s biggest UFC fight, not only in terms of the money he could earn but also because he cannot afford a loss. Another loss could shatter the veteran’s dream of becoming a champion since he is already 36. It remains to see how things pan out for ‘The Boston Finisher’ on April 13th.
