Unsurprisingly, the event's headliners Lawler and Woodley banked the most moolah with the sum total of their disclosed earnings coming to a tasty $840,000. Woodley also received a $50,000 performance of the night bonus for knocking out Ruthless inside the first round as well as $30,000 in Reebok pay, while Lawler took home $40,000 from Reebok.
Jake Ellenberger and Jorge Masvidal were the only other fighters on the card to break the 100k mark, with co-main event winner Karolina Kowalkiewicz taking home a measly $38,000 for her title-shot securing performance against Rose Namajunas. Both Karolina and "Thug" also took home $50,000 apiece for winning the fight of the night.
