As of early-2017, sources estimate a net worth that is over $1 million, mostly earned through success in boxing and also acting; he was a full contact kickboxer before entering professional boxing.

Randall attended Abilene High School and played for the school’s football team. After matriculating, he attended Abilene Christian University, however dropped out when he turned 19 and then started training in karate, living in a dojo while improving his craft. After earning his black belt, he moved to kickboxing since he wanted a full contact sport, and quickly earned popularity, setting an early 9-0 record, all of which were knockouts. He won a technical knockout victory against David Ochoa and it later earned Cobb a professional boxing contract which started to increase his net worth, as he learnt the fundamentals of boxing quickly.

Randall had a bit of difficulty adjusting to professional boxing as evident in his two amateur bout losses. In 1977, he made his professional debut and would earn 13 straight wins, becoming known for his hard hitting style which would continue in building up his net worth. After a few losses, he bounced back to earn a title shot against Larry Holmes in 1982, but he was defeated in a unanimous decision however. Two years later, he made a brief return to kickboxing which resulted in a loss, while his boxing matches were also posing some difficulties, so Cobb decided to take a two year break, and after returning, went on to get a 20 fight undefeated streak before a sudden retirement in 1993.
