Mid-way through 2016, the UFC was sold to WME-IMG for upward of $4 billion. Needless to say, those that had a stake in the company at the time pocketed a pretty penny. One of the most significant owners at the time of the sale was Frank Fertitta, brother of Lorenzo Fertitta. Together, the brothers owned 81% of the mixed martial arts promotion. It is estimated that, with the sale of the UFC, Frank Fertitta pocketed about $800 million, which in turn elevated his net worth to something in the area of $2 billion. In other words, he’s loaded.<\/p>\n

According to New York Post columnist Jennifer Gould Keil, the absurdly wealthy Fertitta recently made a pretty extravagant purchase, buying a Manhattan penthouse with a price tag of $70 million.<\/p>\n
