Last night, the UFC returned to our screens with UFC Charlotte, an exciting, 12-fight card that aired on FOX.<\/p>\n

In the main event of this card, Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza improved to 2-0 against Derek Brunson, putting his fellow contender down with a first-round head kick and a storm of followup punches<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the co-main event, Team Alpha Male staple Andre Fili authored one of his finest wins to date, scoring a close and controversial win<\/a> over the UFC’s 11th-ranked featherweight, Dennis Bermudez.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere on the card, we watched Gregor Gillespie deliver a first-round stoppage of Jordan Rinaldi, Drew Dober decision Frank Camacho in a Fight of the Night winning slugfest<\/a>, Bobby Green out-duel Erik Koch, Mirsad Bektic crumple Godofredo Pepey with a Fight of the Night earning body shot, and much more.<\/p>\n

At present, the purses for this 12-fight card have not yet been disclosed. We do, however, know how much each of the 24 fighters on the UFC Charlotte bill took home for wearing Reebok, as part of the UFC’s athlete outfitting program.<\/p>\n

Under the UFC\u2019s deal with Reebok, fighters are paid based on the amount of fights they\u2019ve had in the UFC\u2019s Octagon, and in the Zuffa-owned eras of Strikeforce (April 2011 and after) and WEC (January 2007 and after). Champions and title challengers, however, are paid $40,000 and $30,000 respectively, regardless of their experience in the aforementioned promotions. These are the two highest payouts possible under this UFC-Reebok partnership.<\/p>\n

Under this framework, the card’s top earner was Derek Brunson, who earned $15K for wearing Reebok. The next biggest earners were Jacare, Bermudez, Green, Koch, and Pepey who all pocked $10K apiece.<\/p>\n

Here’s a full rundown of the a Reebok figures for UFC Charlotte (via MMAJunkie.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n
