When the Brazilian footballing superstar Neymar made his big-money transfer, amounting to £77.4 million to Al-Hilal from Paris Saint-Germain, little did he know that his weekly wages would be no match to the net worth of the UFC’s richest ring girl, Arianny Celeste. It was back in 2017, when the 31-year-old had joined PSG from Barcelona, after the French club met his release clause of £198 million, with the expectation of winning trophies in Europe, but it wasn’t the case.

It led to Neymar signing a two-year contract with the Saudi Pro League club in the summer transfer window, to take the football in the country to the next level. He is expected to earn £138 million as yearly wages, amounting to £2.65 million a week from his deal with Al-Hilal, one of the clubs in Saudi Arabia which went under the ownership of the Public Investment Fund in June of this year.
But still, the weekly wages of Neymar is far less than the UFC’s richest ring girl Arianny Celeste, who has an estimated net worth of £3.65m, according to the Daily Star from the United Kingdom. While the earnings of the self-professed “UFC Mama” aren’t comparable to the overall contract of “The Menino” at Al-Hilal, she is quite the star in the world of combat sports with her social media following going past three million recently.
Arianny Celeste is a world-travelled UFC ring girl who was the “Hottest UFC Octagon Girl” in 2010 as per Maxim magazine. It led her to post nude in the Playboy edition in November of the same year.
The 37-year-old talked about the moment and said, “Playboy approached the UFC after they saw me in Maxim. President Dana White called me and told me they wanted me on the cover, and I was shocked, excited, and honoured!”

"It's a privilege and an honour. I find the magazine to be very classy and beautiful, and the women on the covers are icons. My favourites are the Carmen Electra and Cindy Crawford spreads," she added.
