MMAWeekly has obtained the fighter salary information from the Nevada State Athletic Commission for UFC 106 featuring the light heavyweight rematch between Tito Ortiz and Forrest Griffin, which took place on Saturday, Nov. 21, at the Mandalay Bay Event Center in Las Vegas. The following figures are based on the fighter salary information that promoters are required by law to submit to the state athletic commissions, including the winners' bonuses. Although mixed martial arts fighters do not have collective bargaining or a union, the fighters' salaries are still public record, just as with every other major sport in the United States. Any undisclosed bonuses that a promoter also pays its fighters, but does not disclose to the athletic commissions (specifically, pay-per-view bonuses, fight of the night bonuses, etc.), are not included in the figures below. In the listings below, "Main Event Fighters" are defined as fighters who compete in the main event of a show. "Main Card Fighters" are defined as fighters whose fights appear on the main card, but not in the main event. "Preliminary Card Fighters" are defined as fighters whose matches take place before the main card goes on the air, regardless of whether or not those matches end up airing on the TV or Internet broadcast. MAIN EVENT FIGHTERS -Forrest Griffin: $250,000 (includes $150,000 win bonus) def. Tito Ortiz: $250,000* - Josh Koscheck: $106,000 (includes $53,000 win bonus) def.

Tito is a legend and a name but 250000 is stupid money not worthy of that in my opinion if you are not 100% |

Tito WAS 100% he got unforeseen injuries during his training camp, his pay for the fight was probably decided a long while before it. Ideally someone of his status should be making $500,000 a fight IF he fights like 3x a year. Totally $1.5 Million a year, which in comparison to boxing is still pretty low with boxers making $24 Million, $30 Mil, etc for one fight, and doing sometimes two of those a year. Hopefully salaries will be on the rise. |
