Payout Perspective:

Anthony Johnson’s salary is a substantial decrease from his reported pay in his May fight with Daniel Cormier when he made $500,000.  Hence, one might assume that the $500K payday was just a “one off” due to AJ’s fight for the title.  Johnson did grab another $50K win bonus to total $280K for the night.  Demetrious Johnson’s pay grew by at least $8,000 as his last reported payday from UFC 178 last September was $183K including a $54K win bonus.  No official pay info from UFC 186 for Mighty Mouse.
