The folks at MMA Manifesto <\/a>have put together the estimated fighter purses from last weekend’s UFC 169 event in Newark, N.J..<\/p>\n

The New Jersey Sate Athletic Commission does not release fighter pay information, so it’s worth noting that none of the estimates below are official. The estimates also include fighter bonuses:<\/p>\n

Alistair Overeem: $407,143 ($285,714 to show, $121,429 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Jose Aldo: $240,000 ($120,000 to show, $120,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Frank Mir: $200,000<\/p>\n

Abel Trujillo: $145,000 ($10,000 to show, $10,000 win bonus, $75,000 Fight of the Night bonus, $50,000 Knockout of the Night bonus)<\/p>\n

Urijah Faber: $100,000<\/p>\n

Jamie Varner: $92,000 ($17,000 to show, $75,000 Fight of the Night bonus)<\/p>\n

Nick Catone: $26,000 ($13,000 to show, $13,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Chris Cariaso: $24,000 ($12,000 to show, $12,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Renan Barao: $22,000 ($11,000 to show, $11,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Ali Bagautinov: $20,000 ($10,000 to show, $10,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Al Iaquinta: $20,000 ($10,000 to show, $10,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Alan Patrick: $16,000 ($8,000 to show, $8,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Clint Hester: $16,000 ($8,000 to show, $8,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Rashid Magomedov: $16,000 ($8,000 to show, $8,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

Neil Magny: $16,000 ($8,000 to show, $8,000 win bonus)<\/p>\n

John Makdessi: $12,000<\/p>\n

Ricardo Lamas: $10,000<\/p>\n

John Lineker: $8,000<\/p>\n

Danny Martinez: $8,000<\/p>\n

Tom Watson: $8,000<\/p>\n

Kevin Lee: $8,000<\/p>\n

Andy Enz: $8,000<\/p>\n

Tony Martin: $8,000<\/p>\n

Gasan Umalatov: $8,000<\/p>\n

The above figures do not represent a full accounting of each fighter’s income. Fighters have other costs that include: training expenses, a percentage to management, a percentage to the trainer, plus insurance, licenses, and taxes.<\/p>\n

On the flip-side, sponsorship money can be a substantial portion of a fighters income. Further more, main card fighters can receive a percentage of the PPV-buys, which can eclipse their respective purse.<\/p>\n
