Austin McBroom is set to fight AnEsonGib this weekend in another social media star boxing match.
He’s been gaining fans from his previous fights and impressive YouTube career so far, but how much is he worth?
McBroom is reportedly worth $2 million (dwarfing his opponent AnEsonGib’s earnings).
He rose to fame as a social media personality, and has 7 million followers on Instagram, and more than a million on TikTok.

His family has a YouTube channel called The ACE Family, with an enormous amount of followers: 19 million.
The channel has had more than 4 billion views, documenting his life with wife Catherine Paiz. Their proposal video alone had more than 34 million views.
Back in 2019, the couple paid $10.6 million for property in Woodland Hills, California, paying $1 million down and financed around $9 million. The monthly bill for the property was reported at $70,000.
They went on to spend millions of dollars finishing the property, including two mansions, a half basketball court and huge infinity court.
It didn’t have a happy ending though, as on July 7 2021 it was reported that the pair had stopped making payments, and the property entered pre-foreclosure. It then appeared listed for sale for $10 million.

In March 2022 they moved into a rental home that had previously been listed at $50,000 a month.
There was further controversy over the Social Gloves event, which people claimed failed to rake in as much money as promised. They were hoping to receive 2.2 million Pay Per View buys. According to a lawsuit, the event only drew 136,000 PPV buys.
Fans will have to wait and see how many PPV sales his fight against AnEsonGib brings in.
