Conor McGregor bought out of ownership stake in Proper No. Twelve whiskey

2F27A21600000578-0-image-a-44_1449534928588.jpg


Conor McGregor has become just as well known for hawking his whiskey brand over the last few years as he has been for fighting. But his connection with the alcohol company may be loosening.

Over time, Becle increased its ownership stake in the company. First they increased their stake to 49 percent in 2020 at a valuation of $235 million. Then, as Whisky Cast reported on Monday, Becle recently acquired the other 51 percent. The deal for the remaining 51 percent stake is expected to close in the second quarter of 2021.

If Becle now owns 100 percent of the company, that suggests McGregor sold his share for a large amount of money. It also calls into question what kind of association the popular 32-year-old fighter will have with the brand moving forward.

Report: Conor McGregor ‘doubled his net worth’ by selling Proper 12 whiskey
By Jesse Holland Mar 10, 2021, 11:47am EST

I guess ownership isn’t for everyone.

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) two-division champion Conor McGregor, who helped found Proper 12 Irish Whiskey back in late 2018, was bought out by the Becle beverage company earlier this month, alongside manager and business partner Audie Attar.

As a result, “Notorious” doubled his net worth.

That’s according to JOE.co, which has McGregor — already valued at $120-$130 million prior to handing over his “Proper” percentage — taking home somewhere in the neighborhood of $130 million. It’s not billionaire status, but I don’t think anyone on the McGregor team is complaining.

Does the article tell us how large of a stake Conor had out of the remaining 51% stake?

I mean, at the end of the day, good for him. His managers/financial planners are probably telling him it's a good time to sell, especially since his stock has to be dropping in the UFC. Cash out now before it is worthless...good move on his behalf.

I have never been a fan of Conor, mainly due to the crap talk and more importantly never defending a belt. But I will say this, he did a great job of making a shit ton of money, I hope he squirreled some of it away.
 
Interesting.

Proper commercials are still airing here on TV so it's surprising.

Maybe he's listening to what everyone's been saying since he's lost. He has too many businesses to take care of to be fully focused on MMA.

Perhaps he's trying to fully commit to being a fighter again.
 
Good. He was spread out over too many things. Ronda got spread out too much and then got slept. Conor just did not lose, he lost to a guy via getting TKO'd for the first time and with the hands (not even Mayweather could knock him down), and a guy he dusted with ease before with his hands. That'd be like Meisha arm barring Ronda. I think that probably woke him up - or I hope it did - and he realizes he has to get back to the things and the life that made him succesful. In the MMA game, you are either all in at the highest levels or you are losing. We have seen this many times before - Twoods rap game, Ronda's movies, Aldo's burgers, many fighters getting into professional wrestling, etc. It could be time has just passed him, but better to bring in GOAT Artem again, hire a nanny for the kids, get out of all other business ventures, sober up and only focus on fighting.

I remember a stupid bitch from Housewives of NY doing the same thing. They sell shitty companies for millions. Hard to argue with that move.
