The winner of the UFC 197 title fights were the only competitors to make over 100k in disclosed salary.
Jon Jones was advised by his team that taking a last-minute replacement bout at UFC 197 after the removal of Daniel Cormier might not have been the best idea. Maybe his paycheck had something to do with him signing up for the interim title bout against Ovince Saint Preux. The new UFC interim light heavyweight champion made a cool 500k in disclosed salary to compete on the card, and took a unanimous decision victory.
