LAS VEGAS – Regardless of outcome, Cris Cyborg will leave UFC 219 as the highest-paid fighter on the card.
UFC featherweight champ Cyborg (18-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) will be paid $500,000 to step in the octagon for tonight’s title-fight headliner at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Her opponent, Holly Holm (11-3 MMA, 4-3 UFC), will make $300,000. Neither fighter has a contracted win bonus.
MMAjunkie obtained the UFC 219 salaries from a Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) official prior to the event.
The numbers drop sizably for the remainder of the card. Undefeated Khabib Nurmagomedov (24-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) stands to make $80,000 with another $80,000 on the line. Opponent Edson Barboza (19-4 MMA, 13-4 UFC) is on a $75,000/$75,000 deal.
The highest earner outside the main event goes to former UFC interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit (30-10 MMA, 7-6 UFC). “The Natural Born Killer” will receive $115,000 to step in the octagon with another $115,000 at stake for a victory. His opponent, Neil Magny (19-6 MMA, 12-5 UFC), makes $70,000 to show with the possibility for double that should he get his hand raised.
