Jon Jones might have knocked out Daniel Cormier and taken back the light heavyweight title at UFC 214 in Anaheim, California, but as far as the official books go, Cormier still took home twice what Jones did.
Monday, the California State Athletic Commission provided Sherdog.com a list of reported payouts for this past Saturday's UFC 214 card at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California. In the main event, the aforementioned Jones felled his rival Cormier with a third-round head kick and followed up with punches to earn the stoppage. While it may be misleading given Jones' extra compensation and forthcoming pay-per-view revenue, officially, Jones earned $500,000 for his title conquest, while Cormier earned $1 million.
