Now, the usual disclaimer: The figures do not include deductions for items such as insurance, licenses and taxes. Additionally, the figures do not include money paid by sponsors, which can oftentimes be a substantial portion of a fighter's income. They also do not include any other "locker room" or special bonuses the UFC oftentimes pays.

For example, as discussed above, the figures above do not include the UFC's traditional "fight night" bonuses. The UFC awarded $60,000 each to Struve (Submission of the Night) and Hardonk (Fight of the Night), and $120,000 to dual-award winner Barry (Knockout of the Night and Fight of the night).

In other words, the above salary figures are simply base salaries reported to the commission and do not reflect entire compensation packages for the event.

* - Anthony Johnson was reportedly fined 20 percent of his purse for failing to make the 171-pound welterweight limit. The CSAC's initial report did not include information on the penalty.






I hope (but doubt) Razak Al-Hassan has some decent sponsors cuz $3,000 is shit money when you consider all it takes to get ready for a fight.

Razak Al-Hassan: $3,000...

With the 20% bonus Yoshi made almost 20k. Not bad for less than 1 round.

I remember reading an article about a struggling new UFC fighter who achieved the same accomplishment, but I don't remember who it was. Pretty sweet to get a $120,000 bonus check.
