Walker stated that he was planning to give his purse to charity. So, did he give his disclosed purse of $600 to charity or his off-the-books purse? Update: Scott Coker told MMA Junkie that Strikeforce made a "six-figure donation to charity."

Strikeforce: Miami's total disclosed payroll was $469,600, total bonus money was $60,000 and total base salary was $409,000.

SBN coverage of Strikeforce: Miami

After the jump WKR continues our new feature where we rank the fighters based upon their perceived value to Strikeforce (based on "to show" money). Followed by our own rankings.

Nick Diaz/Robbie Lawler > Bobby Lashley > Jay Hieron/Marius Zaromskis/Joe Riggs > Wes Sims > Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos > Greg Nag/Melvin Manhoef > Marcos DaMotta > Marloes Coenen/Ryan Keenan > Craig Oxley/David Zitnik/Pablo Alfonso > Hadar Hassan/John Kelly/Michael Byrnes/David Gomez/Joe Ray/John Clarke/ Sabah Homas > Herschel Walker 

Obviously there is a lot of undisclosed pay roll on this fight card.

Now this is what WKR believes the ranking should look like.

Nick Diaz/ Robbie Lawler> Bobby Lashley/Herschel Walker > Jay Hieron/Marius Zaromskis/Joe Riggs/Melvin Manhoef > Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos > Marloes Coenen > Wes Sims/Greg Nagy* > Ryan Keenan/Marcos DaMotta > Craig Oxley/David Zitnik/Pablo Alfonso > Hadar Hassan/John Kelly/Michael Byrnes/David Gomez/Joe Ray/John Clarke/ Sabah Homas > Herschel Walker 

Lashley and Walker are bigger draws but not better fighters only reason why they are ranked second.
