Bellator’s big main-card introduction to DAZN is in the books. The longtime Paramount Network (née Spike) promotion pulled out all the stops for their arrival on a new platform, putting a bevy of their highest profile stars, notable veterans, and one of their brightest prospects all on one show.
But, a line-up like that comes with a price tag.
‘Rampage’ Jackson and Wanderlei Silva were the top earners, with $300,000 & $200,000 respectively, for their co-main event tussle. While Gegard Mousasi and Rory MacDonald topped the rest of the billing at $150,000 each for their main event fight.
