The official salaries for last weekend’s Strikeforce: Rousey Vs Kaufman event are now in, and despite being by far and away the biggest selling point of the card, headliner Ronda Rousey’s $40,000 pay day wasn’t the most lucrative of the night.
That honor instead went to former middleweight champ Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza who took home $94,000 for his night’s work.
Despite featuring on the undercard, another former champion Miesha Tate was the night’s third biggest earner with $38,000, with Tarec Saffiedine close behind with $35,000.
