How does Bryan Caraway only make $21,000 in his 9th UFC fight??? His opponent, Cody Stamann, made only $1,000 less in base pay in his third fight for Dana and Co. Pedro Munhoz, in his 9th UFC fight on the same card, made $34,000. Mackenzie Dern, in her UFC debut, made $25,000 in base pay. Sean O'Malley, in his second UFC bout, earned $22,000 in base pay.

Caraway's deal is awful.

CB got paid to get laid

Caraway got ripped off

Some pretty low payouts for some of these fighters IMO

If these are merit based I don't think Caraway got robbed. He really isn't all that exciting and I don't think he draws much of a fanbase. Honestly I find him terribly boring but hey some folks seem to like the guy.

Zingano, who's only fought once a year for the past several years, mainly due to injuries, is taking home $35,000 before taxes? And she's a single mother? That's the harsh reality of this business. Cyborg's making bank, and I'd imagine she got a cut of PPV sales, if there were any. Frankie signed a terrible deal, former champion, this far along in his career (possibly at or near the end), and like Cat he had a long break between fights, so I'd imagine he took the Ortega fight in large part for the paycheck. Edgar should be past the point of signing bout agreements to pay bills and to think this was his big pay bump coming out of free agency.

Dodson has fought for the title twice, has had a top notch run in the ufc, gave Mighty Mouse his toughest fight ever at 125, yet is only at 41K and has been ranked in the top 7 at least at 125 for like 4yeras now.

Caraway also is way way underpaid, fuck you WME. 21k Show? WTF, dudes been top 10 at 135 for 3 years.
