Jay Silva’s still on his bouncer salary.

A little surprised they didn’t try to capitalize by putting Leben on the main card since they’re already paying him a (relatively) handsome sum to have him on the card – then again maybe they were hoping his fight would be quick so they could slot it in.

Bloody hell.

yeah I don’t think they expected all four main card events to go the distance.

Kinda surprised to see Nate make $48K for a loss. WTF is up with that?

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but you still can't
help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs...

gray made 60 grand for that fight. winning TUF is the way to go if you’re an underwhelming decision extraordinaire. wow.

Gatti. Dekkers. Pele. Aoki. Kang. Vanderlei. Basillio. Harry Greb.

i think he only made 40k. the 20k win bonus was included in that figure. i did read the leben was the highest paid fighter of the night.
