Payout Perspective:

Gaethje has earned 4 bonuses in his 3 fights in the UFC.  He is an entertaining fighter with a style that is not long for a career.  But, he is making a lot of fans while he’s here.  Returning Yushin Okami made $70,000 ($35K and $35K).  It was his second fight in the UFC since returning from the PFL. His last fight in the PFL he made $50,000 ($25K and $25K).  Oliveira, filling in for Matt Brown, collected $150,000.  The Cowboy made $50K and $50K plus another $50K performance bonus for his upset over Condit

It seems that TKO has really screwed up WWE/Wrestlemania with ads and celebs and getting away from the heart of pro wrestling - and talented performers are paying the price.
