function not found

The Nevada State Athletic Commission on Monday released the Strikeforce Challengers 20 fighter salaries.

Lumumba Sayers topped Antwain Britt in the main event, while Olympic medalist Ronda Rousey continued her roll through the women’s ranks.

Strikeforce Challengers 20 took place Friday, Nov. 11, at the Pearl at the Palms in Las Vegas.

The following figures are based on the fighter salary information that promoters are required by law to submit to the state athletic commissions, including the winners’ bonuses.

Although mixed martial arts fighters do not have collective bargaining or a union, the fighters’ salaries are still public record, just as with every other major sport in the United States. Any undisclosed bonuses that a promoter also pays its fighters, but does not disclose to the athletic commissions (specifically, pay-per-view bonuses, fight of the night bonuses, etc.), are not included in the figures below.
