Wow, UFC has decided to start paying good money. I am impressed. I am sure this will attract more and more fighters.

Yep, can not stand that, a winner should never make less than the loser of a fight, it's the stupidest thing I have ever seen...

i dont think any fighters should get paid 3000$, i think 5000$ should be the mininum +5000 for winning. fighters cant get better if they have to work their ass off to survive, 3000$ is nothing.
good on mirko for getting 350000$

damn, crocop must love it at UFC...getting paid 350K to win a fight he barely had to break a sweat for, let alone fear losing or getting injured over (not discrediting sanchez in any way, but you all watched it).
and i think silva should be getting paid a lot more than that...doesnt say that it was a flat rate though so maybe dana decided to pay him less seeing as how it wasnt a title defense...idk...
good deal on rampages part too...got 170K and his pride back...cant beat that...

Damn! I bet Silva is kicking himself right now, wondering why he didn't get such an awesome contract.

Mirko Cro Cop: $350,000 flat fee
Man, it looks like Chuck Liddell isn't the highest paid UFC fighter anymore. Cro Cop makes a $100,000 more then he does.
