Following Saturday’s UFC 195 pay-per-view event in Las Vegas, Nevada, which featured one of the best action-packed title fights of all-time between Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit, the Nevada Athletic Commission has released the salaries paid out to the fighters who competed on the card.
As seen below, the winners have two dollar amounts listed, as they received their contracted “show purses” as well as their contracted “win bonuses” for getting the victory. Their opponents obviously receive only their “show purses.”
It’s important to note that the following salaries are strictly those reported to the NAC, and do not include the discretionary post-fight bonuses, non-Reebok sponsorship money some fighters make, pay-per-view points or other income that is not reported to the commission.
