‘UFC 196: McGregor vs. Diaz’ Salaries Released

Stockton’s medical marijuana facilities better stock up, because Nate Diaz (pictured) has plenty of cash and he wants to celebrate – I mean, help him sleep. Or help his migraines. Or help his lack of appetite. Or whatever excuse he used to get a weed license.

Diaz made a flat $500,000 salary in last night’s submission win over Conor McGregor. McGregor, meanwhile, became the first UFC fighter to score a disclosed salary of $1 million.

McGregor was also ineligible for a win bonus.

Holly Holm also earned $500,000 for meeting Miesha Tate in the show’s co-main event.
