CLEVELAND, Ohio - According to figures released by the Ohio Athletic Commission, Stipe Miocic could pocket over a million dollars when it's all said and done for his victory at UFC 203.

The Ohio native and UFC Heavyweight Champion knocked out Alistair Overeem during their main event fight at The Q on Saturday. The Commission says Miocic was paid $600,000 for the fight from the UFC.

That gets added to $90,000 in bonuses Miocic has already earned for his performance. He should get a couple more bonuses, including knockout of the night, when UFC reveals its full numbers soon.

Overeem, who has been with the UFC (and in MMA in general) longer, earned a total of $880,000 for the fight, while former WWE star CM Punk was paid $500,000 to get the crap beaten out of him by Mickey Gall.

Once endorsements and pay-per-view bonuses are factored in, Miocic's earnings could top $1 million. Early estimates have UFC 203 generating upwards of 700,000 pay-per-view buys, which is an high number for an event not featuring one of the UFC's mainstream stars (i.e. Conor McGregor, Ronda Rousey, etc.).
