Dana White and the UFC have always worked, both publicly and privately, to keep fighter salaries out of the public eye.
While the UFC CEO’s policy was to not reveal a fighter’s pay unless they had misrepresented it to the public, White is well aware that athletes would regularly disclose their earnings to one another. That bit of information comes according to a 2017 deposition for the UFC antitrust lawsuit that was recently unsealed by federal judge Richard Boulware.
“All the fighters know what other fighters are making,” White said.
