UFC 100 Salaries: Lesnar, St. Pierre, Henderson Earn Big
("And I'll be taking your lunch money every morning, got it geek?")
The UFC paid out $2,190,000 in disclosed salaries and bonuses for Saturday's UFC 100 show, with the victorious Brock Lesnar, Georges St. Pierre, and Dan Henderson taking home just over half of the total. Lesnar and St. Pierre also earn a percentage of the pay-per-view revenue, which isn't reflected in the list below; according to MMA Junkie, Lesnar will make about $3 million from the fight even before the majority of his sponsorship money is tallied. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. The salary figures are below:
- Brock Lesnar: $400,000 (no win bonus)
- Georges St. Pierre: $400,000 (includes $200,000 win bonus)
- Dan Henderson: $350,000 (includes $150,000 win bonus, $100,000 Knockout of the Night bonus)
- Yoshihiro Akiyama: $160,000 (includes $20,000 win bonus, $100,000 Fight of the Night Bonus)
- Michael Bisping: $150,000
- Alan Belcher: $119,000 (includes $100,000 Fight of the Night Bonus)
- Tom Lawlor: $116,000 (includes $8,000 win bonus, $100,000 Submission of the Night bonus)
- Mark Coleman: $100,000 (includes $50,000 win bonus)
- Jon Fitch: $90,000 (includes $45,000 win bonus)
- Thiago Alves: $60,000
- Dong Hyun Kim: $58,000 (includes $29,000 win bonus)
- Frank Mir: $45,000
- Stephan Bonnar: $25,000
- Jim Miller: $22,000 (includes $11,000 win bonus)
- Mac Danzig: $20,000
- Jon Jones: $18,000 (includes $9,000 win bonus)
- C.B. Dollaway: $14,000
- Jake O'Brien: $13,000
- Shannon Gugerty: $10,000 (includes $5,000 win bonus)
- Paulo Thiago: $8,000
- Matt Grice: $7,000
- T.J. Grant: $5,000
Underpaid: Frank Mir. $45,000 for an interim belt holder, former champion, and eight-year UFC veteran? It goes to show what Mir is really worth to the UFC, when young stars like Thiago Alves and Michael Bisping are out-earning him. Of course, Jon Jones also needs a big bump in pay after completing his first three UFC fights in memorable fashion.
Overpaid: Michael Bisping. U.K. poster boy or not, the dude's biggest win leading up to UFC 100 was over Chris Leben, and he wasn't even fighting for a title on Saturday. I wonder if the UFC will ask him to take a pay cut now that his A-list salary looks a little inflated. Meanwhile, the poster boy for the Asian market, Yoshihiro Akiyama, only got $40,000 to show. Maybe Bisping and Akiyama should square off next to determine who deserves what.

Woooh! Hendo got some nice bonuses, as did GSP's win bonus.
Frank Mir needs to re-negotiate his contract definitely.
I heard Coleman got 50 gees. $25,000 to show and $25,000 for a win bonus?
I think either Belcher or Akiyama will put down bisping. Akiyama needs to work on his conditioning tho.
BeastUnleashed Says:
Damn...Lawlor is so fucking caked up after this it aint even funny.
Fight Fan Says:
Can't believe Mir only made $45K. Seems insulting.
NastyNudoh Says:
would love to see Akiyama do work on Bisping- I think it could def be a good fight
El Famous Burrito Says:
Also overpaid: C.B. Dollaway.
Come on, $14,000!?!
That's like $1 per square foot of douche in that guy.
BeaverLord Says:
Maybe Bud Light will pay Mir some money just to spite Lesnar?
Fight Fan Says:
I didn't see anything special in Akiyama.
Bag Puncher Says:
I don't think I would let Brock punch me in the face for a measly $45 K.
Horror Fighter Says:
Wow, $45K won't even pay for Mir's plastic surgery. He got robbed. Maybe he'll join the list of former UFC heavyweight champs who made more money when they left the organization. Frank deserves better.
831 Son Says:
Hahaha that picture is great. Fucking Mir got rocked. Fool got what he deserved. Glad that Brock confronted him too after the fight.
Bag Puncher Says:
I am kind of curious as to what Frank's face looks like today?
AkilleeZ Says:
LMAO at the caption.
And I agree with Fight Fan. Akiyama looked good. Not great.
rokabee Says:
That was Akiyama's first fight in the UFC against a good opponent, plus he got his nuts smashed early.
Akiyama will mix up some things in the middle of the pack but I don't think he will make it to the top.
Biffmiester Says:
Damn at least split Mir off with at least $75,000... this guy finished Nog and is gettin less than a douche whose biggest wins are over Chris fuckin Leben and Matt Hamill (which he shouldve lost in the 1st place... fuckin judges). Mir was part of the fuckin' main event. Mir got raped in more ways than one this UFC.
Sheps Says:
Rok, from what I heard he got 50k to show, 50k to win.
Sexyama needs to work on his game, not bad for his first cage fight though. Either way we need a sexy asian in the UFC. Sexyama is just a fucking fantastic nickname.
agentsmith Says:
I tell you what, $400,000 buys alot of ammo and beef jerky. Now Brock will be all stocked up for that coming Civil War that Ted Nugent told him about.
I see from Coleman's salary that Dana decided to take pity on a broke old man. How the fuck is he getting more to show than either Fitch or Mir? I know it's based on star power and not rankings, but come on... is anyone really tuning in to watch Mark Coleman?
Walrus Says:
Poor Frank Mir
i.had.to.register Says:
"Lesnar will make about $3 million from the fight even before the majority of his sponsorship money is tallied."
So I'm guessing that's based on % of ppv buys or something? Isn't that was Tito was always crying about?
Spacebump Says:
Mir got robbed.
NECROPHYTE Says:
Yes Mir got paid peanuts. That's fuct. Shit ain't kool.
HAL_13 Says:
HEY BITCHES, THAT WHAT MIR GETS FOR RUNNING HIS MOUTH IN THE FIRST PLACE. I BET THE DUMB SHIT WILL ALSO GET HIMSELF A BIG'OL SLEDGE HAMMER AND BEAT THE HELL OF A TIRE FROM HERE ON OUT BEFORE EVERY FIGHT. I BET HE WILL ALSO START HOOKING UP SOME ROPE TO HIS BACK, AND RUNNING WITH IT JUST AS LESNAR DOES. LOL THIS SHIT IS AWESOME, AND I FUCKING LOVE THIS SITE, AND HELL I EVEN LOVE ALL YOU DUMB FUCKS THAT GO ALONG WITH IT.
HAL_13 Says:
MY ALL TIME FAVORITE IS "NOW YOU'LL SEE FRANK MIR" YEAH WE SEE YA FRANK. NOW GO FUCK YOURSELF...........
rokabee Says:
Get off my nuts fool.
HAL_13 Says:
GET OFF MY NUTS FOOL LOL........
Dojima Says:
id love to be Tom Lawlor today... going from a guarenteed 8G's to over 100k was a pretty fucking awesome weekend for him
Titos Head Says:
Paulo Thiago damn 8g's that almost doesn't cover the plane ride from Brazil!
shartacus Says:
Jesus, Frank got owned. That picture just kills me.......his hair is disheveled, he's bruised, battered and filled with fear that that freak of nature is about to kick his ass again. If he wasn't such a douche, I'd feel sorry for him
Chri534. Says:
I'm glad Belcher got the Fight of the Night Bonus. Maybe they should re-name that award "Judges' Fuck Up of the Night Bonus".
Edit: I might be eating my words, I'll have to go to the booth review
Clyde Says:
Shit. I've only just watched it. May we all pray that someone will knock that cock tattooed cunt out. I'm talking Hendo-Bisping knockout. And Hendo, you don't have to appologise for the second one. Hell, I'd probably let it slide if you kicked him in the balls as stitch was helping him up. Maybe even give you another bonus for "unnecessary parting shot of the night."
portland mma Says:
Did anyone else notice Hendo kissed his hand right after he KO'd Bisping, and then did his controversial shot. Its hard to deny that you didn't do it on purpose when you knowingly kissed your hand because you knew you KO'd him. Its not like too many people should care though, Bisping has been asking for that for years. It was also hilarious when Bisping realized he was gonna get his ass kicked in the stand up so he tried to shoot on Dan...great game plan there, if my opponent was an Olympic wrestler I'd definitely go for the take down.
portland mma Says:
No way Chris, Akiyama won that fight, but it was close.
Bag Puncher Says:
Is Hal a kid?
DangadaDang Says:
I know I might be called an asshole for this, and I know your just trying to make a point, but CP, please don't imply that a victory over Chris Leben is a bigger victory than over Matt Hamill
House Party Says:
45k? That can't be right. shit even if you hate frank mir you gotta think 45k is nothing for a headliner at UFC 100
Endocat Says:
the UFC pays for a fighter to fly to an event, plus like 3 other people i think as well. They also give them some chump change for the weekend, something like 50 dollars
AgentoftheBat Says:
I loved Hendo's extra shot after the KO.
I don't care if he did it on purpose.
I wish he had gotten up, and then dove in for one more.
Bisping needed to get knocked out. He's good but he's just
an asshole.
HAL_13 Says:
@ BAG PUNCHER. I'M A KID THAT WOULD KICK YOUR ASS IN THE CAGE YOU PRICK. THIS PICTURE SHOULD BE THE COVER OF EVERY MAGAZINE ON EARTH.
portland mma Says:
Hal you don't fight. You don't even know the first thing about MMA in a keyboard warrior sense, which is proven by every comment you leave. Once your balls drop and you start to get hair in funny places you'll realize just how much of a fucking retard you sound like, or you won't because you lack the mental capacity to realize just how much of a loser you are.
NECROPHYTE Says:
lol @ HAliburton! U Word raped

HAL_13 Says:
PORTLAND MMA YOU DON'T FIGHT. YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT MMA IN A KEYBOARD WARRIOR SENSE. WHICH IS PROVEN BY EVERY COMMENT YOU LEAVE. ONCE YOUR BALLS DROP AND YOU START TO GET HAIR IN FUNNY PLACES YOU'LL REALIZE JUST HOW MUCH OF A FUCKING RETARD YOU SOUND LIKE, OR YOU WON'T BECAUSE YOU LACK THE MENTAL CAPACITY TO REALIZE JUST HOW MUCH OF A LOSER YOU ARE. NO WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT YOU DUMB PRICK. I GUESS YOU THINK I MADE PERFECT SENSE ON THAT ONE DON'T YOU.

Im serious fool, if you think your such a badass then get your worthless ass over here and we'll see who gets the lesson in life motherfucker.
Cuntalope Says:
Leave UFC fan alone guys, I'm pretty sure he's retarded or something. Don't be mean, it's not his fault he's dumb as pig shit. It's his parents and their bad genetics, they don't have good genetics like your heavyweight ruler of the world Brock Lesnar.
Ohh look who made the most money at UFC 100? Hmm the best Lesnar, I wonder why. Go suck a dick you fucking haters. Eat shit!
john t Says:
LOL @ Hal, dude you just copied and pasted exactly what Portland MMA wrote you unoriginal dumb bastard. LOL the fact you called him a wagon jumper because he likes Fedor as opposed to Brock is the most ironic thing i've heard all day, as well as the most idiotic. You don't have the slightest clue what you are talking about which is why you just say dumb ass shit instead of giving an intelligent rebuttal. Dude everyone here hates you, except maybe Goog whom you seem have an insane man crush on.
Cuntalope Says:
john t more like john fag! shut your ignorant mouth, seriously making your self look foolish. stop embarrasing yourself and being a faggot all the time.
HAL_13 Says:
HEY DUMB ASS JOHN T. IT IS YOU THAT IS AN UNORIGINAL DUMB BASTARD. dude you just copied and pasted exactly what Portland MMA wrote. SEE WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SAY PEOPLE LIKE YOU HAVE NO FUCKING CLUE AS TO WHAT THE FUCK YOUR EVEN TALKING ABOUT. 1. I DID NOT COPY AND PASTE A DAMN THING EXCEPT THAT STUPID LITTLE SHIT OF YOURS THAT I POSTED IN THIS COMMENT YOU FUCKING MORON. 2.YOU DON'T HAVE THE SLIGHTEST CLUE OF WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT WHICH IS WHY YOU JUST SAY DUMB SHIT LIKE 'dude you just copied and pasted exactly what Portland MMA wrote. AND 3. GOOG IS ONE OF THE MORE REASONABLE, AND MMA SMART GUYS ON HERE BESIDES THE FACT THAT HE LOOKS ALMOST JUST LIKE BROCK LESNAR WHICH I THINK IS PRETTY FUCKING COOL TO ME. I'D SAY YOU LOOK MORE LIKE A FRANK MIR AFTER BROCK DAMN NEAR KILLED HIM. ALL FAT IN THE FACE, AND FULL OF FEAR WHEN YOU GET PUT IN YOUR PLACE. SO PLEASE UNLESS YOU CAN CATCH ON TO WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON AROUND HERE THEN YOU NEED TO SHUT THAT FUCKING COCK HOLE OF YOURS. YOU ARE A FUCKING DUMB ASS MY FRIEND.
