UFC 199 payouts and salaries: Dan Henderson breaks the bank with $800,000

UFC 199 fighter payouts for those athletes competing at the "Rockhold vs. Bisping 2" mixed martial arts (MMA) event last weekend (Sat., June 4, 2016) from inside The Forum in Los Angeles, were released earlier today by California State Athletic Commission (CSAC).

Cha-ching!

Longtime veteran Dan Henderson was the top earner of the night, pocketing an event-high $800,000 for his vicious elbow of doom against Hector Lombard (watch it). Coming in a distant second was UFC bantamweight champion Dominick Cruz, who raked in $350,000 for turning away Urijah Faber (replay).

That's not all.
