Their pay scale is beyond confusing! How does the best heavyweight on their roster make only 30k/30k on a new contract. I mean they had to of had some competition from Ufc or apparently not much competition at all. Then you look a fighter on the undercard, Najib idala made a flat 60k in a loss. Their pay scales are all over the place!!
They give up front sums/signing bonuses

It was about 10 years ago when I stopped caring about the disclosed pay figures.
RKing85 -?? It was on the front page news section?It was about 10 years ago when I stopped caring about the disclosed pay figures.
A lot of 1k/1k and 2k/2k on that card…
vintirex - A lot of 1k/1k and 2k/2k on that card.....I had a few lower level pro fighters in my gym and they were making 1k/1k most of the time, even at little regional shows. That was 10 years ago, it blows my mind fighters can be making that today especially fighting for a huge promotion like bellator!

sometimes, this was one
I don’t get why people think bellator is some big promotion. They are the glorified B league, and a bad one at that, but that’s why the pay is fine.
TeamPrimal -Bellator main card is a big promotion. Bellator prelims is pretty much a regional show.vintirex - A lot of 1k/1k and 2k/2k on that card.....I had a few lower level pro fighters in my gym and they were making 1k/1k most of the time, even at little regional shows.

Much like the UFC, the posted purses have little to do with actual pay.
Patricky got a big payday. I dont think he gets that kinda money anywhere else.
At least not before proving he deserves it.

Yeah that’s kinda sad that 2 and 2 thing has been going on since like 2003
Dissapointing in 2017.
Especially after that little crisp boxing card had guys making 100k +on undercard
Pura Vida -How so in regards to Ufc? I know that sometimes they give locker room bonuses at times but what other income am i missing?Much like the UFC, the posted purses have little to do with actual pay.

Not much, purses are pretty straight forward these days much to the Bellator number 1 crowd dismay.
Couple things are left like sponsorship or lack thereof, and PPV points.
edit: oh and there's also the signing bonus.
