There's no such thing. You mean mma fighters? It varies. The MMAFA hasn't taken hold yet. MMA is still in its darkages. Most fans and fighters don't seem to care much about improving things. But why let the stupid masses lead. GSP is a ******, so we should look to Fedor.
I think Brock and Fedor are the highest paid in MMA. I've heard UFC fighters dont get paid anything near to what there boxing counterparts get. But im not sure how much....but I do remember Tito and Randy giving an estimate to what they were earning in a couple of interviews. If I find them i'll post them :good
The very top guys, when they are at their peak, both fighting and popularity wise, get several million; more than 2 less than 10. Nobody outside of the fighters, the organization, the accountants, and the IRS knows the exact number. I cannot stress that enough; no "civilians," as it were, knows the exact amount. The reasons that the top guys pay is unknown are that a large % of the pay is outside of the fight purse reported to the commision and made public; the top UFC guys get a % cut of the PPV, in the case of Liddell at his powers, it was rumored to be 2-3 million. Then there is the pay provided as "bonuses"; the "of the night" bonuses (sub, ko, and fight) are public, but sometimes there are duplicates that aren't official. There are also the "locker room bonuses" that are given for doing something the organization likes, putting on a good fight, showing real effort, finishing the fight, whatever; there was one $500,000 bonus check that had been cashed by Randy Couture when him and the ufc were publicly shown. There are also payments made to fighters for being UFC employees, either doing interviews online like Swick did, or just nominally, these account for a decent amount of money, not quite as much for the smaller guys, but say for Randy who did television work, it can be as much or more than his fight purse. Short answer is "we don't know for sure" Slightly longs and better accident is "we don't know for sure, but we know it's far more than the fight purse reported to the commision, and all signs point to it being around $5,000,00 to $8,000,00."
