Keep in mind the salaries listed above do not include fight bonuses, sponsorships, percentages and other unofficial payments. It also does not include deductions for expenses such as insurance, taxes, etc.

For example, the UFC often hands out extra cash for "Fight of the Night," "Knockout of the Night" and "Submission of the Night." To check out these figures for UFC 118 go here.

the bottom guys are starting to get more money... it used to be 2000k

I'm sure Maia got all his money guaranteed since it was a short notice replacement fight. I'm interested to see what both Gray and Frankie get for their fight.

I was going to say Toney's conned them out of 500k but in the end he might have sold more pay per views, so in theory he could turn into a bargain.

I'm eager to see how many buys 118 got.

Damn Toney and I think he has another fight with the UFC as well. I better not ever hear about him being broke

hahaha thats hilarious

You wont see Toney in the cage again!

at least i hope not

I'd like to see Toney fight Crocop.

Crazy to think Randy is one of the biggest names in the whole sport and is only getting payed $250k, compare that to Manny's $20 mill he'll be getting in November.

LMAO! Kevin u are right he wont never make that much I dont think.

500k to get choked out in 2 minutes and not get off a single punch. Now that's the american dream right there...

Those salaries are staggeringly low for the most part. Shocked at how little some of those guys are making.

those girls should repaint their asses to say Fuck the Fighters

and Dana laughing holding his money

Who cares about this argument anymore when we can look at that cool sig of NoRegret's? Hot college girls...YUMMY

Someone dig up the salary numbers from 2005.
