There is no denying that Conor McGregor is a combat genius. The Irishman holds some of the best finishes of the UFC under his credit. Having said that, he is equally smart outside the octagon, too. And the fortune he’s built for himself should make for himself with his UFC purse as well as his number of businesses. Especially his whiskey brand, Proper Twelve, which has contributed a mammoth sum to his net worth. But aside from the fact that the whiskey brand brings him an abundance of wealth, ‘The Notorious’ also manages to capitalize on the tax part of it, too.
