MMA Payout has obtained the payouts from the UFC Fight Night event last month in Nashville. Anthony “Showtime” Pettis earned over $300,000 with his fight purse.
Pettis earned a KO over Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson. He received $145,000 to show and another $145,00 for the win. Thompson earned $120,000 to show and would have doubled that with a win. Notably, the payout sheet received from the Tennessee Athletic Commission indicated Wonderboy would receive $12,000 to show although I would assume that is a typo.
The rest of the payouts are as follows:
Anthony Pettis: $145K/$145K
Stephen Thompson: $120K
Curtis Blaydes: $75K/$75K
Justin Willis: $38K
John Makdessi: $44K/$44K
Jesus Pineda: $12K
Deiveson Figueiredo: $23K/$23K
Jussier Vieira: $46K
Luis Pena: $8,400/$12,000 (Luis forfeited a percentage of his purse to Petersen for missing weight)
Stephen Petersen: $15,600
Maycee Barber: $12K/$12K
JJ Aldrich: $21K
Bryce Mitchell: $12K/$12K
Bobby Moffett: $12K
Marlon Vera: $45K/$45K
Frankie Saenz: $30K
Alex Davis: $35K/$35K
Jennifer Maia: $12K
Randa Markos: $25K/$25K
Angela Hill: $24K
Ryan McDonald: $10K/$10K
Chris Gutierrez: $10K
Eric Shelton: $14K/$14K
Jordan Espinosa: $10K
Payout Perspective:
Pena had to forfeit a portion of his purse to Petersen thus the $8,400 for the show and $12,000 for the win. Pettis’ $290K plus his Performance Bonus upped his takeaway salary and Reebok pay to over $350K. A good night for Showtime who may have found a new home in the welterweight division.
