BELLATOR salaries

[Alexandoy]

It’s good news for Bellator fans that the league is somewhat thriving as evidenced by the increased pay of the fighters in the recent Bellator 220. Getting more than $100k paycheck are Rory MacDonald with $200k and his opponent Jon Fitch with $140k who fought to a draw. Benson Henderson earned $100k for his win over Adam Piccolotti who was paid a meager $22k. Phil Davis was paid $160k and his losing opponent Liam McGeary earned $75k. (Davis actually earned $80k and got a fight bonus of $80k).

10k is the minimum in the UFC basically all deals grow as the fighter wins and progresses through their contract. I don't expect Bellator to match that minimum but I'd find it hard to believe that a 5k minimum wasn't feasible with what they are making from Dazn and their other revenue streams. This was a huge card in the Sap Center on a billion dollar streaming service.
