Hector Lombard's payday UFC 182

I just saw that Lombard made 53k/53k with his win over Burkman and according to http://www.mixedmartialarts.com/news/442297/Estimated-UFC-171-salaries/ He made 300k with his win over Jake Shields in his fight before that. Is there any reason why this would be considering he's been winning, now he's making considerably less money.

 

Perhaps that website is wrong, I'm not even sure if Texas releases the salaries.

 

Shields last fight on original contract?

That being said for rank and the fact he really beat tim, huge paycut

 

Maybe he's out of his strikeforce contract and now into his U Fight Cheap contract.

 

He fought for Bellator

 

not bad at all

 

I don't know why I had that brain fart. Maybe his awesome grab you from Bellator contract is done.

 

Corn dogs are for hillbillies....

 

Position on card?

 

Kind of a free gimme fight...not sure if they would pay the same if it were a top 10 he was facing....

 

They renegotiated his contract once it became clear he wasn't going to walk in and become a division champ.

 

Showeather money

 

But he was.

From 03:04.

 

Yeah, I gotta imagine some of the bigger names get more incentive based contracts considering who they're fighting, winning streaks, PPV numbers, performance, etc. Lombard will get paid better for bigger fights.

 

This

 

He was a Bellator champ.

Presumably he started out at $300,000 per fight but then got shafted because Dana needs more snow at his house.

 

maybe it varies with where you are on the card, prelims or co main or main, and ranking of opponent
