UFC 146: Fighter Salaries

The full salary list for Saturday night’s UFC 146 event is now in and shows that the highest payout of the evening was $200,000.

That’s the figure that main and co-main event stars Junior Dos Santos, Frank Mir and Cain Velasquez all pocketed after their fights, while Antonio Silva was some way behind with just $70,000.
