Monday, the Nevada Athletic Commission released fighter purse details from UFC 207 in Las Vegas on Dec. 30, 2016. As expected after fight night reporting, Ultimate Fighting Championship women's bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes walked away with $200,000 total for her 48-second demolition of Ronda Rousey in her first UFC title defense, not including her $50,000 “Performance of the Night” bonus. Conversely, Rousey took home a reported $3 million flat purse for her lopsided defeat.

In other UFC 207 title action, Cody Garbrandt made a flat $200,000 for his UFC bantamweight title capture over Dominick Cruz, while the former champion took in a reported $350,000 in defeat.

Other notable earners, not including discretionary or event bonuses, include former UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw who raked in $200,000 for his decision win over John Lineker, and victorious welterweights Dong Hyun Kim and Neil Magny who took home a respective $134,000 and $114,000 after UFC 207.

Note: The disclosed purses reported by state athletic commissions do not include any performance-based or discretionary bonuses that may be awarded to a fighter by the promotion. Additionally, the reported figures do not reflect any deductions made by the commission for taxes, insurance, etc., and do not include any sponsorship money that a fighter may acquire for their performance.
