Note:

• Lawal was fined 10% of his purse for allegedly splashing Rockstar Energy Drink all over the cage after his match.
• While it appears that Daisuke Nakamura only received $200 in disclosed salary, these are just disclosed salaries that represent only a portion of a fighter’s total purse. The fact that he’s fought on numerous M-1 and Dream cards leads me to believe he’s got a different type of contract and compensation agreement than the rest of the fighters on this card.
