Payout Perspective:
Browne and Cruz made six figures with their win bonuses. The notable omissions from the top paid of the night was former bantamweight champ T.J. Dillashaw who we assume was on $70K and $70K. Dillashaw’s purse appears to be a step up from his last officially reported purse from UFC 177 which was $50K/$50K. There was no official report from UFC on Fox 16 this past July although we might assume based on the step ups that he made $60K/$60K in his rematch win over Renan Barao.
