lol...such shitty pay for Rocha, Banuelos, Omigawa and Reuidger.

Oh well, Reudiger just got paid 8 G's to get knocked around the ring for a round and a half...he didnt even deserve that much.

Feel bad for the other guys that fought hard for an entire fight though.

Damn Vitor signed a hell of a contract it seems. Him and Forrest made some nice bank.

No wonder why Forrest said he is good for the year lol

Yeah, they also get some share of the profits and what not, plus sponsorships that pay them.

Those figures are just a chunk of what they actually pulled away from their fights.

Shit Bader only made 20 grand????

Vitor made more than Anderson

That's from his six figure contract he won on TUF.

Tthat is weird. He only made 30g at UFC 104, and half that for the TUF finale, UFN 18 though is a mystery.

Is Vitor's contract still carrying over from Affliction?

Someone fucked his wife, that's all I'm saying.
