There was a changing of the guard in the lightweight division at UFC Fight Night 90 when former Bellator champion Eddie Alvarez took the crown from Rafael dos Anjos in the main event last Thursday night. Yet, it was the former champ who made the most money, not merely in that fight, but on the card with a total of $310,000. Even if dos Anjos had won, he was not scheduled to win a bonus.
Alvarez and Roy Nelson were the only other fighters on the card who were past the six-figure mark.
