correct me if i'm wrong anyone. | In the Dana's videoblog video, Dana says to Vitor that if he makes weigh he will receive 20% of Rumble's purse, so I think all the money went to Vitor.
Unless they deducted even more from Rumble. Maybe they deducted 40% of his purse so 20% went to Belfort and 20% to the Comission, but I doubt it.

I'm sure Zuffa compensated Belfort in other ways with a couple of extra little bonuses to say thanks for going ahead with the fight because if he had said no, the UFC would have had no co-main event.

What does Vitor make per fight? Quarter Million to show?

4K.
That's fucked. | A quick payday and loss of respect from your home town...
There are more things in life than money. I bet the feeling has right now is worth more than any amount of Rumble's money.
Vitor is brave. He even offered to fight Fedor when Fedor vs. Barnett was called off. I always love to see the guys with the will to fight.
