Please note that these figures are simply those disclosed to the commission, and do not include the “Performance of the Night” or “Fight of the Night” bonuses the UFC hands out after each event. The UFC also tends to give out bonus checks at their discretion that are not made public, so those too do not factor into the numbers above.
