The Nevada Athletic Commission has released the official fight purses from Friday’s The Ultimate Fighter 28 Finale. This was a low-level card featuring only a few ranked fighters, of which two were in the main event. UFC welterweight contender Kamaru Usman was the top earner at $150,000, getting $75,000 base pay along with the $75,000 to win. Of course, he also got a $50,000 performance bonus to make it $200,000, but we’re only focusing on the money that was guaranteed immediately after Friday night’s results. Perhaps Usman’s next fight could be for the title, and thus a much bigger payday.
