These are some amounts that Kenan has earned from the UFC. Besides UFC, Kenan has appeared in several other fights where he won some of them. However, the amounts he received have not been disclosed. Still, we can estimate that he got paid thousands of dollars for those matches.
Although a professional fighter, yet we do not have any reliable sources to estimate his net worth.
The fact that whether the 29-year old MMA fighter is single or in some courtship evades us. He neither talks about his love life openly nor makes headlines for that. Or, we can say Kenan might be focussed on his career than being in a relationship now.
