Fighters who has between one and five fights within the octagon will make only $2,500 per fight under the new system. Fighters with six to ten UFC bouts will make $5,000 while fighters with eleven to fifteen will make $10,000. Veterans with 16 to 20 fights will earn $15,000 and those with twenty-one and higher will get $20,000 per bout. Champions and challengers are on a different pay structure. If you are challenging for the title, you will earn $30,000 and the champion will earn $40,000. What do you think of the payout structure? Is it fair? Is it not enough money?
