Let's just spitball anything that comes to mind regarding how these two will get paid. If you have work experience in this type of space do share your thoughts.
Usman - likely got paid under 500,000 USD for the title shot and maybe got 1M USD for the Colby fight
Masvidal - made 3M USD for the Nate Diaz fight. He says UFC offered him lower that what they paid for the BMF if he was gonna fight Usman for the first negotiations.
I would say both parties will make 3.5-4M USD for this fight, meaning the UFC would likely lose money or breakeven for UFC 251.
