UFC 94, bonuses, salaries, live gate and more

2110742423_4de38bc758_medium


UFC 94 looks to be a big success with a live gate of 14,855 for a sum of $4.3 million. 

While the night featured eight decisions, five of which wee split, there were still plenty of 'fight night' bonuses. A total of five bonuses of $65,000 were awarded Saturday night, four 'fight night' bonuses and one bonus for 'knockout of the night.' Lyoto Machida earned the knockout bonus for his victory over Thiago Silva, partially due to being the only fighter to knock anyone out. While Josh Howard, Chris Wilson, Clay Guida and Nate Diaz all earned the 'fight night' bonus. 

For those interested in fighter salaries MMAWeekly has the numbers for the evening,
