Alright, let’s gab a bit about this fella, Justin Buchholz. Don’t know him? Well, he’s one of them fighting fellas, you know, the ones that punch and kick each other for money. Guess they call it “mixed martial arts” or some such fancy name. Sounds painful if you ask me, but hey, to each their own, right?

So, who is this Justin Buchholz anyway? Well, from what I hear, he was born back in 1983, August 22nd to be exact. Makes him… let me see… well, he’s getting on in years, ain’t he? He’s a Filipino-American, which I guess means his folks came from the Philippines, but he grew up here in America. Probably ate a lot of adobo and apple pie, I reckon.
- Born: August 22, 1983
- Nationality: Filipino-American
- Profession: Former Mixed Martial Arts Fighter
Now, this Justin, he fought for a good long while, from 2005 all the way to 2018. That’s like, what, 13 years? A long time to be getting punched in the face, if you ask me. He was in this UFC thing, that’s the big one, the one everyone watches. Also fought in some other places, EliteXC and World Series of Fighting, they say. Never heard of ’em myself, but I guess they’re important if you’re into that fightin’ stuff. Sounds rough, all that brawlin’. My joints ache just thinkin’ about it.
They say he even took a fight on short notice once, against some fella named Marques. That’s gutsy, I tell ya. Like jumpin’ into a cold creek without testin’ the water first. Probably got paid good though, these fighters make a pretty penny, or so they say.
Speaking of money, how much is this Justin Buchholz worth? Now, that’s the million-dollar question, ain’t it? Or maybe the twelve-billion-dollar question, considering that UFC thing is worth a whole heap of money. They say it’s worth $12 billion as of October 2024! That’s more money than I can even imagine. All them tickets and them pay-per-view things, that’s where the money comes from, I guess. And don’t forget them selling shirts and hats and whatnot, “merchandise” they call it. Folks will buy anything these days, I swear.
But back to Justin. It’s hard to say exactly how much he’s got. They don’t just go around tellin’ everyone their bank account balance, you know. But folks online, they like to guess. They look at his salary, his fights, how much he probably made from winnin’ and such. They estimate his “net worth”, which I guess is everything he owns minus what he owes. It ain’t an exact science, mind you. It’s more like guessin’ how many beans are in a jar.

Some folks say he’s done alright for himself, made a decent livin’. They compare him to this McGregor fella, who they say is worth $200 million. Now THAT’S a lot of money. Makes you wonder if getting punched in the face is worth it after all. Probably got a nice house, maybe a fancy car. Maybe he even invested his money, like them smart fellas on TV tell you to do. Put it in stocks and bonds, or whatever they call it. Me? I just keep my money under the mattress, safer that way, I figure.
What’s he doing now, you ask? Well, I ain’t his keeper, so I don’t rightly know. But I heard he might be coachin’ other fighters now, teachin’ ’em how to punch and kick and not get punched and kicked too much themselves. Makes sense, I guess. Use what you know, right? Like me, I know how to make a good apple pie, so I make apple pies. He knows how to fight, so he teaches fightin’. That’s the way the world works, as far as I can tell.
So, there you have it. A little somethin’ about Justin Buchholz. A fighter, a Filipino-American fella, probably made some good money, and now maybe teachin’ others how to do the same. Seems like an alright fella, even if he does punch people for a livin’. Hope he’s happy, that’s all that matters in the end, ain’t it? Money ain’t everything, you know. Health and happiness, that’s the real wealth. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my apple pie. Don’t want it burnin’ now, do we?
Searching online, there’s a lot of information on Justin, mixed in with a lot of other fighting news. You gotta dig through a bunch of stuff to find what you’re looking for. They got these forums and news sites and all sorts of things. It’s a whole different world out there on the internet, I tell ya. Makes my head spin sometimes.
Folks are always interested in how much these fighters make. It’s like a big secret they wanna uncover. Makes you wonder why. Maybe they wanna see if they could do it too, if they could get rich punchin’ people. Or maybe they just like to be nosy, who knows? People are funny that way.

Anyways, that’s all I got to say about Justin Buchholz. Seems like a decent fella, made a livin’ doin’ what he’s good at. Can’t fault him for that, I reckon. Now, I’m gonna go have a slice of that pie. All this talkin’ has made me hungry.
