The Ultimate Fighting Championship’s return to London proved to be one of the promotion’s best events so far in 2022, and the the athletes on the card were compensated accordingly.
During the ESPN post-fight show, UFC president Dana White revealed that every fighter on the card who secured a finish would receive a $50,000 post-fight bonus. The promotion typically hands out four post-fight bonuses and has on a few occasions given out six. It probably didn’t hurt that the card, which took place at the O2 arena in London, was the highest-grossing event in venue history and the highest grossing Fight Night in UFC history, according to promotion officials.
