The figures do not include deductions for items such as insurance, licenses and taxes. Additionally, the figures do not include money paid by sponsors, including the official UFC on ESPN 10 Promotional Guidelines Compliance pay. They also do not include any other “locker room” or special discretionary bonuses the UFC sometimes pays. They also do not include pay-per-view cuts that some top-level fighters receive.
For example, UFC officials also handed out four $50,000 “Performance of the Night” bonuses to Aguilera, Agapova, Nam and Vettori.
In other words, the above figures are simply base salaries reported to the commission and do not reflect entire compensation packages for the event.
