Payout Perspective:
Interesting to note that Hendricks’ pay has decreased since the last official reported payout from UFC 181 in December 2014. In that fight, a loss to Robbie Lawler, Hendricks made $150,000. Roy Nelson had a $75,000 show purse and $50,000-win bonus. A good night for Mike Pyle who made a total of $153,00 with his Fight of the Night Bonus plus his show and win bonus. OSP and Joseph Benavidez also made six figures Saturday night.
Dave says
I’m surprised that there is not one mid-tier fighter who fought the other night.
d says
Another major star developing in Wonderboy, more good news for mma.
The Greatest says
That was suppose to be a ppv?
Not good.
I wonder if Wonderboy will be as good as the last major star the UFC had. Sage Northcutt.
d says
How about all of those boxing ppvs…. oh that’s right, they can only put together a few every year that can sell. Haha.
Wonderboy is also elite, Northcutt isn’t. Thompson just destroyed Hendricks, Northcutt did nothing even remotely close. ST will be the next ww champ.
That PBC news is killing you. HAHAHA!
