These are the fighters salaries from ultimate fight night 6. I think this is bullshit. Diego Sanchez won his fight and got $32,000 and that was on spike tv and from that one event they made $411,050. Now even though Babalu lost his fight at UFC 62, he only got paid $21,000 and the whole event made like 3-4 million. Thats bullshit if ya ask me. Babalu was in the main event and definitly should have gotten more than that even though he lost IMO





UFC Fight Night 6 took place last Thursday, August 17th, in Las Vegas, Nevada and aired nationally on Spike TV. What follows is a full listing of the fighter salaries for the event, which the UFC is required by law to submit to the Nevada State Athletic Commission. Any additional bonuses that the UFC has chosen not to disclose are not included in the listings below.

Regarding the "known event revenue" that is listed below the disclosed fighter payroll, the live gate for this event at the Fertitta-owned Red Rock Resort was $187,050. The total attendance was 1,412; with 1,052 tickets sold and 360 free comp tickets.

As previously disclosed by Neilsen Monitor Plus, the average price for a 30-second commercial on UFC programming is $3,500, so the gross advertising revenue is $112,000 per hour. Therefore, the gross advertising revenue for a UFC broadcast is $224,000 if it's a two-hour broadcast. The amount of the rights fee that Spike TV pays Zuffa is not known.
