UFC 200<\/a> saw an absolutely stacked event card from beginning to end and the monumental pay-per-view event is likely the biggest payout in UFC history because of that.<\/p>\n

Brock Lesnar<\/a> took home the biggest check with his disclosed payout of $2.5 million, setting a new record for the highest disclosed payout in UFC history. Prior to Lesnar’s pay for his UFC 200 win over Mark Hunt<\/a>, who made $700,000, Conor McGregor’s $1 million disclosed payout for UFC 196 set the record.<\/p>\n

MMA Junkie<\/a> reported the full disclosed payouts for UFC 200 after getting them from the Nevada State Athletic Commission.<\/p>\n

Numerous fighters on the historic card took home six figures. Interestingly rising star Sage Northcutt<\/a> who fought on the FS1 preliminary card took home twice as much as former UFC bantamweight champion TJ Dillashaw<\/a>, who fought on the main card. Northcutt picked up a cool $100,000 with his contracted $50,000 to fight and an additional $50,000 to win in his fight versus Enrique Marin who had the smallest check from the event, which was $13,000. Dillashaw took home $50,000 with his contracted $25,000 to fight and additional $25,000 to win over Raphael Assuncao who took home $42,000 in his loss to the former champ.<\/p>\n
