Michelle Waterson Got Paid $15k/$15k Show/Win for a Main Event

[knock_you_out]

That's very low pay for a main event. And some people are tired of fighters complaining about low pay (Paige got paid $43k).

 

[Sonny Qc]

Gsp first fight in the UFC was for 3k/3k.

could be worse lol.

(just kidding that is awful)

 

[dontlaugh]

Her bonus was 15k only ? Fuck. That's some bullshit.

It seems you get paid from how much popular you are.

 

[No Mas McGee]

union

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

I've seen game show winners take home bigger prizes.

 

[daltonames]

She needs to call GSP cause that is just awful, win in main event of Fox card. Think MMAAA just won another member.

 

[mosotogari]

Damn! I would have thought she was pulling more loot than that...

Why pay the world-talent guys hundreds of thousands of dollars when you can throw 15k at an attractive woman and get better TV ratings? #wmebless #hollywoodelite #liberalismwillbethedeathofmma

 

[Degen Gambler]

And yet still they can't get a union together

 

[in the liver]

helwani brought this up in an interview, it seemed very rude and awkward to me. faber made more than everyone else on the main card put together

 

[Osiris3657]

She got a $50K bonus too.

 

[MikeMcMann]

Have we heard if the new owners still allow Dana to hand out bucket loads of cash back stage for great performances???

 

[GOAT]

This is why fighters like Ferguson are demanding proper pay as soon as they have a little leverage. The UFC has been cheating fighters out of money since the start of the organization.

 

[VAfan]

that really is criminal.

 

[mikehunt]

 

[FinalFight]

I wonder how much she was left with after taking into account her expenses.

So, what you're saying is the UFC should change it's name to "Ultimate Female Combat"?

 

[AP_RESURRECTION]

we prob are going to see way more womens mma main events then

 

[Abazzdeboom]

Had only one fight in the UFC and that was like 10 years ago
A bit short to ask for more $$$$
