Patricky Freire was the lone fighter to earn a six-figure payday at Bellator 183, as he took home $110,000 for his triumph against Benson Henderson in this past Saturday’s lightweight main event.
The California State Athletic Commission released salary from the event to MMAFighting.com on Tuesday. Freire took a contentious split-decision victory over Henderson at the SAP Center in San Jose Calif. Henderson, a former UFC 155-pound champion, banked $50,000 in defeat.
In the co-main event, Paul Daley garnered $50,000 for his second-round knockout of Lorenz Larkin ($40,000).
