Longtime UFC veteran Nate Marquardt handily led the disclosed payroll of UFC Fight Night 96, pocketing a salary of $112,000 for his knockout victory over Tamdan McCrory, according to figures released this week by the Oregon State Athletic Commission.

Marquardt picked up his thirteenth UFC victory with a dazzling combination that floored McCrory late in the second round. The fight headlined the preliminary card on UFC Fight Pass. McCrory earned $15,000 in defeat.

UFC 203 took place Oct. 1, 2016 at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon. The night's main card aired live on FOX Sports 1.

Marquardt was the only fighter on the card to hit the six-figure mark in earnings. Bantamweight headliner John Lineker was the next-highest earner, cashing a $72,000 paycheck for his split decision victory over John Dodson ($38,000) while also forfeiting 20 percent of his show purse ($8,000) to Dodson for missing weight.

In addition to their commission-reported salaries, Marquardt, Brandon Moreno, Luis Henrique da Silva, and Curtis Blaydes also took home $50,000 fight night bonuses for their performances.

A complete list of the UFC Fight Night 96 salaries can be seen below. As always, these figures do not represent a fighter's total earnings, as certain sponsorship incomes and discretionary post-fight bonuses are not publicly disclosed.
