How much did their training camps cost? That needs to be taken into account.

hard to tell how much they really make, Some fighters may choose to sign an large signing bonus and fight for less money per fight as well.

That's why they should quit fighting and find a 9 to 5 job

Rountree deserves 1.4 milly but I don’t see how they pay him that much.

Don’t accept these numbers. No one not in a title fight is getting more than 100k tops. 50k more likely.

Read the article too. The writer didn't even cite where he got those numbers. Are people this gullible around here?
Edit: Wasn't sure who released fighter payouts.

Think real numbers comes from the commission or some shit of that state (for states where it is disclosed)? From what I've heard, Utah is a bit weird. Individual fighters can choose whether to disclose their official fight purses in that state.

If I were in the BW mens division, I would be identifiying wmma to make that easy bank as champ. No way women champs should be making anywhere over 250k. None of them are draws and only riding the wake of the mens league. Put the women on their own ppv cards and we'll see they true numbers instead of having the men keep them above the water like the NBA does for the wnba.

This are NOT real numbers, it says right there, estimated payouts, thats not purse or actual PPV numbers. How accurate are they? Probably for Pereira and Pennington, the two defending champs, who knows if Pereira negotiated a killer deal, the man is carrying the UFC on his shoulders, but im not too sure Peña and Rountree are getting PPV points as challengers, specially Rountree, Peña as bad as she is is a former champ and now two time champion, which is a disgrace on its own, lol.
Almost* every year, and even then, jumping on the PPV money from the UFC with a division as bad as it is it beats the potential earnings in PFL, she already milked that cow, she ran away basically on time, Cyborg is a PFL fighter now, and Nunes is not here anymore, she has a weak division to try and get the title, milk it for over 1 million a fight, not 1 million and change for a few fights there, even if she loses, as champion the pay will be the same, in PFL she has to win, and last time she didnt.
Tecia allegedly making more is a consequence of her being in the UFC for years, 17 fights, that seems to add up even if they never amount to anything of note (keep in mind those payout numbers are 100% made up anyway) and well, she married a champion, lol, now former champion, the whole taking the other girl´s name when they marry seems ridiculous, considering sometimes not even traditional couples do it.

Kevin Holland deserves a lot of credit for being a smart business fighter. He's above average and and normally doesn't take a lot of damage. Signs up to fight like every other month to cash in on close to $375k. That's close to a couple of $mil a year!

Dern had a confirmed payout of $350k IIRC. Aldo somewhere along there too. Some people especially vets or those with a bit of star power/notoriety get paid okay (Venum Page, Kayla, Holland, Lewis, etc)
The main issue is the product sucking as a result of the lowest tier guys not being paid enough. And not enough for big dudes who take more damage. LHWs and HWs want to see the money

Wait. I didn't know the UFC made payouts public. Is there a page on their website for this info?
