Do contenders get a special amount as well? Didn't know that. 


Yh they get 30, champ 40.


Aparently legends get 5.

Big foot is not a legend. Are you his friend or something?

Holly Holm made 100k with OTN bonuses alone, but I would be mad if I didnt get the Chad Mendez treatment (500k flat) for this fight.


FOTN should have gone to Joanna vs Leturneau.

I agree about the FOTN..


But Bigfoot is most definitely a legend. He's been fighting for a decade with wins over Travis Browne,Overeem, Fedor, Arlovski (srikeforce).. What about that war with Mark Hunt?

He's gotten a lot of shit because of how chinny he's become..but he had a valid reason for his medical condition to use TRT and is now probably putting himself in harms way for your entertainment, making 5k in sponsor money, how can you say otherwise? What's a legend to you?

I completely agree, especially about the TRT thing.

Everyone thinks it's SO evil, they can't even let themselves accept that some people truly need it.

"but if they need it, they shouldn't be fighters"

Ignorant BS


I can't imagine how hard it is to train like these guys do with dogshit testosterone levels.

Some men can hardly function working an 8 hour desk job when their shit gets too low, imagine being a pro athlete in one of the hardest sports there is.

All you have to do is look at him to see how much he's struggling.

Poor guy. Much respect to Bigfoot, and to hell with the idiots who won't let him use (basically the only valid) medication to treat a legit health problem.

^ Yup, it's really sad to see man. He looked hurting taking his shirt off just before walking in the cage..I don't know how he manages it..

I just hope nothing bad happens to him because of this whole situation...cos fighting aside, him just living like that must be a pain

If I recall, Bigfoot has won a whopping 3 ufc fights, in his career. To put that into prespective, Cody Mckenzie won that many ufc fights. Phone Post 3.0

I think you are mistaking what a legend is with an undefeated fighter.

Well I'm inclined to disagree. Refer to the definition of legend above as to why.

Elias Cepeda - In all fairness, 5k can buy a guy a lot of Reebok... Phone Post 3.0

I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop, when we learn that the sponsorship money paid out each fight is in the form of Reebok store credit.

For comparison purposes

“UFC 193: Rousey vs. Holm – $245,000
“UFC Fight Night 77: Belfort vs. Henderson 3” – $160,000
“UFC Fight Night 76: Holohan vs. Smolka” – $62,500
“UFC 192: Cormier vs. Gustafsson” – $192,500
“UFC Fight Night 75: Barnett vs. Nelson” – $102,500
“UFC 191: Johnson vs. Dodson 2” – $192,500
“UFC Fight Night 74: Holloway vs. Oliveira” – $142,500
“UFC Fight Night 73: Teixeira vs. Saint Preux” – $107,500
“UFC 190: Rousey vs. Correia” – $202,500
“UFC on FOX 16: Dillashaw vs. Barao 2” – $212,500
“UFC Fight Night 72: Bisping vs. Leites” – $110,000
“UFC Fight Night 71: Mir vs. Duffee” – $137,500
“The Ultimate Fighter 21 Finale: Ellenberger vs. Thompson”– $90,000
“UFC 189: Mendes vs. McGregor” – $235,000


I somewhat agree, though a double championship fight is always going to have a higher payout, and I don't think 193 was as good as 189 (which had a slightly lower payout). But it does make the difference clear with the fight nights if anyone ever had doubts.
