    Wonder what the tax man will take from the 200k

    I wonder if he can claim that he's an artist and is therefore exempt from paying tax.
    It is Mixed Martial Arts after all! :pac:

    The only figure that really surprised me in all those payouts was Eddie Alvarez's 100K. Not bad for his first fight with the organisation. What kinda money was he on in Bellator??

    He got $80k + $80k for his last Bellator fight.

    Thanks. Am I correct in assuming this figure would be at the top end of the Bellator salary scale??

    If I remember correctly, their tourney champs used to get 100k.

    I'd imagine Alvarez was their top paid fighter because he was kind of like their number one poster boy.

    Have to say, that's a pretty disgraceful figure for Zingano in my opinion.
    She's still on her initial contract. So that's just her disclosed pay.
    At the post fight, when he announced the FotN bonus, Dana said to Cat (pretty sure it was her anyway), don't worry we'll looked after you.

    Cruz looked great against Takeya Mizugaki, seemed like he never left. Nice verbal ownage of Faber after the fight too.
