Pimblett signed for the UFC back in 2021, hence why his net worth has massively increased in the past two years. Before he signed for the UFC, Pimblett’s net worth was estimated at around $1 million.
However, as of December 2023, it is reported that Paddy Pimblett’s net worth is now somewhere in the region of $5 million (source: Give Me Sport).

Paddy Pimblett’s net worth is also inflated due to world famous rapper Drake gifting him a six-figure worth Rolex watch. Drake handed ‘Paddy The Baddy’ the watch after he and good friend Molly McCann earned the rapper $3.7 million in a winning bet.
The 1995-born MMA phenom also earns additional cash from his YouTube channel @PaddyTheBaddyUFC. He has over 890,000 subscribers, and is set to hit the 1 million mark in 2024! Pimblett certainly earns plenty of additional cash from his YouTube channel.

The second largest fight purse of Pimblett’s career came two fights ago against Jared Gordon. The scouser reportedly pocketed $304,500 for his closely fought lightweight encounter.
Given that Pimblett has only fought five times in the UFC, his previous purses prior to signing to Dana White and his organisation are unknown. He is the former Cage Warriors featherweight champion though, so may well have earned five or six-figure purses on a few occasions.
Pimblett’s first two purses in the UFC earned him $78,000 each, before the Liverpudlian then signed a new seven-figure deal with the UFC. As you can see in the table below, Pimblett’s earnings have catapulted in his past three fights, showing just how big his new UFC contract actually is.
