My vote is GSP, Rampage, Chuck, Lesnar or Fedor.

GSP- has made several movie appearances, most popular sports figure in Canada and is sponsered by Gatorade. He is a huge draw and ultra popular.

Rampage- made several movie appearances, starred in a hit movie The A-Team. I'm pretty sure his reason for filming instead of fighting Evans in his home town is the paycheck he was going to get out of making a summer blockbuster.

Chuck- because he and Couture helped put UFC and MMA into mainstream. Dancing with the Stars and all that jazz, I'm very sure he makes a ass load of money especially when you're betting 30k on your boss and best friend. He's been a huge draw for quite sometime now and both him and Hughes have been fighting in the UFC for a real long time.

Lesnar- His first fucking fight that he lost, he made 400k. With every fighter out there, there's sponsorship money and the share in PPV Buys. Brock has not gone under 800k in PPV buys. With huge drawing power comes huge money, especially for someone who just makes 400k to win or lose. Plus, WWE pays VERY well and the hype he got there was unbelievable, in UFC All Access, the dude has 200 acres of land, a huge house and an equally huge gym he made as well and that was BEFORE he fought in the UFC.

Fedor- With his long win streak he use to have, I'm very very sure he makes a ton of money. He also does Sambo, has the President of Russia watches his fight and M-1 are money fiends so I'm also sure he gets a ton of money when it comes to PPV buys.

I would put Dana White but he's not a fighter, but according to Heath Herring, the dude has six ferraris. I'm pretty sure he bought a ton of things for his wife and family.

Actually, BJ was listed as a net worth of $40 million

^^^ That Ps3 break through me off. My guess is it would be Lesnar and then Chuck.

on top of all the other guesses, I wouldn't doubt that Sakuraba has made some sort of retard money fighting in japan. People love shoveling money at him to get his face beaten into meatloaf then pull off a Macguyver-esque submission.
