Check out the official fight purses for UFC Sacramento.
The official payouts for UFC Sacramento have been released, courtesy of the California State Athletic Commission. Topping the payroll is unsurprisingly Urijah Faber, whose 46-second TKO win over Ricky Simon turned $170,000 into $340,000 when you tack on the win bonus. For what was an otherwise lower-tier Fight Night, Faber was the only one to reach six-figures strictly in terms of purse money, as Josh Emmett and Andre Fili both received post-fight bonuses that drove them above $100,000.
As for the actual headliners, Germaine de Randamie recorded a purse of $90,000, with Aspen Ladd at $35,000 as a result of her 16-second loss to GdR. If a title shot is next for de Randamie, ideally she’ll get a significant bump in pay as the #1 ranked women’s bantamweight contender.
