Amanda Nunes leads all salaries for UFC 239 with bonus for Holly Holm knockout

UFC double-champ Amanda Nunes picked up another huge win this past Saturday night with a first-round knockout against Holly Holm and she also goes home with the biggest disclosed payday for anyone on the card.

The Nevada State Athletic Commission released salary figures for UFC 239 on Monday following the event in Las Vegas this past weekend.

Nunes earned $300,000 to show with an additional $200,00 for her win over Holm in the UFC 239 co-main event. Nunes then earned an another $50,000 for one of the ‘Performance of the Night’ bonuses, which brought her to $550,000 for her total payday.

Holm earned $300,000 in a losing effort after falling to Nunes at UFC 239.

UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones took home $500,000 for his split decision victory over Thiago Santos in the main event. Jones had a guaranteed purse, which meant his disclosed $500,000 payday was the same win, lose or draw in his fight against Santos.

For his part, Santos took home a flat $350,000 fee for his performance against Jones where he came up just one round short from dethroning the light heavyweight champion.

Welterweight contender Jorge Masvidal went home with $250,000 in his pocket after earning the fastest knockout in UFC history with a flying knee that put Ben Askren down and out just five seconds into the fight. Masvidal earned $100,000 to show with another $100,000 to win plus an additional $50,000 for ‘Performance of the Night’.

That means Masvidal made $50,000 per second in his victory over Askren on Saturday night.
