As expected, Jon Jones will be paid handsomely for his UFC 239 title fight with Thiago Santos this evening.<\/p>\n

The guaranteed UFC 239 fighter salaries were revealed just moments ago by MMAJunkie\u2019s John Morgan<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to the report, Jon Jones is guaranteed $500k for his Fight<\/a> with \u2018Marreta\u2019 this evening.<\/p>\n

Jon Jones – $500K<\/p>\n

Thiago Santos – $350K<\/p>\n

Amanda Nunes – $300K\/$200K (win bonus)<\/p>\n

Holly Holm – $300K<\/p>\n

Jorge Masvidal – $100K\/$100K<\/p>\n

Ben Askren – $210K\/$160K<\/p>\n

Luke Rockhold – $200K\/$150K<\/p>\n

Jan Blachowicz – $46K\/$46K<\/p>\n

As seen above, Amanda Nunes has the chance to bank as much as \u2018Bones<\/a>\u2019 with a victory over Holly Holm this evening.<\/p>\n

Jones was last seen in action at April\u2019s UFC 235 event, where he scored a unanimous decision victory over Anthony Smith.<\/p>\n

Prior to that, Jon Jones had recaptured his light heavyweight crown at UFC 232 by scoring a third round knockout victory over Alexander Gustafsson.<\/p>\n

With a victory over Santos this evening at UFC 239, many fans believe the next fight for Jon Jones is a trilogy bout with current heavyweight champ Daniel Cormier.<\/p>\n

Jones recently touched on the potential of a third bout with Cormier suggesting that with the right payday, the trilogy bout could actually happen at heavyweight.<\/p>\n

\u201cYea I think that would help a lot,\u201d Jones replied when asked if he\u2019d need a big purse to move up in weight. \u201cYou know the UFC, they are a very successful company. We\u2019re growing every year, and I know they have the funds to make the fight happen. I want to be treated like I am in a super fight, and I know they will do that when the time comes.\u201d<\/p>\n
