UFC Fight Night 81 payouts disclosed

February 5, 2016 by Jason Cruz 1 Comment

MMA Junkie has obtained the payouts from UFC Fight Night 81 a couple weeks ago in Boston.  Travis Browne, Dominick Cruz and Eddie Alvarez led the roster payroll which totaled $1,189,000.

Notably, Alvarez had the highest show money of all the athletes for the event.

The rest of the payroll via MMA Junkie:

Dominick Cruz: $110,000 (includes $55,000 win bonus)
def. T.J. Dillashaw: $70,000

Eddie Alvarez: $100,000 (no win bonus)
def. Anthony Pettis: $80,000

Travis Browne: $120,000 (includes $60,000 win bonus)
def. Matt Mitrione: $36,000

Francisco Trinaldo: $54,000 (includes $27,000 win bonus)
def. Ross Pearson: $48,000

Patrick Cote: $86,000 (includes $43,000 win bonus)
def. Ben Saunders: $18,000

Ed Herman: $94,000 (includes $47,000 win bonus)
def. Tim Boetsch: $52,000

Chris Wade: $34,000 (includes $17,000 win bonus)
def. Mehdi Baghdad: $12,000

Luke Sanders: $20,000 (includes $10,000 win bonus)
def. Maximo Blanco: $25,000

Paul Felder: $36,000 (includes $18,000 win bonus)
def. Daron Cruickshank: $20,000

Ilir Latifi: $44,000 (includes $22,000 win bonus)
def. Sean O’Connell: $18,000

Charles Rosa: $24,000 (includes $12,000 win bonus)
def. Kyle Bochniak: $10,000

Rob Font: $20,000 (includes $10,000 win bonus)
def. Joey Gomez: $10,000

Francimar Barroso: $30,000 (includes $15,000 win bonus)
def. Elvis Mutapcic: $18,000

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.
