Orlando Salido, winner of this year’s World Boxing Council fight of the year award for his draw against super-featherweight champion Francisco Vargas back in June, enjoys killing his time by driving his truck for Uber.

Of course, as a winner of hundreds of thousands of dollars over the course of his 43-13-4 career record, Salido doesn’t need the money. According to the LA Times, he does it just to pass the time and earn some cash.

From the Times:

Catching a lift to the airport with a former featherweight world champion at the wheel seems like an enhanced Uber service, but Salido says there’s no extra charge, and that some passengers aren’t even aware who he is.

ā€œNot too many know me, but some? Yes,ā€ Salido said. ā€œEverybody who does know are surprised to see me, but at the same time, they don’t know how much money I’ve already made.ā€ļ»æ

Salido is currently seeking a rematch of his 2014 fight against Olympic champion Vasyl Lomachenko, which he won.

He also rents out an apartment complex worth $700,000 and owns a party supplies rental company, you know, when he isn’t punching people or driving them to the airport.

ā€œThat’s what I do,ā€ said Salido, 36, who lives in Phoenix.
