pfft 200k? Abit more than that, as he was headlining the event it would be around 500k, their pay outs for the fighters have been increasing every event, Brock got like 400k at ufc 100
I don’t think that the actual salaries have been released yet, but I’m sure he made 250-400k. Like the guy above me said, Lesnar got paid somewhere between 400-500k just to show up at UFC 100.

They make no where near what they should be making when you consider the number of PPV buys. They are all ridiculously underpaid. When you see the top boxers raking in 10′s of millions for the same number of buys while the MMA boys are lucky to score a quarter million you know something is wrong.
