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 discretionary bonuses the UFC oftentimes pays.
For example, as previously reported, UFC officials handed out additional $50,000 UFC Fight Night 63 bonuses to Mendes, Poirier, Pena and Johnson, all of whom earned “Performance of the Night” awards.
In other words, the above figures are simply base salaries reported to the commission and do not reflect entire compensation packages for the event.
