Well, it is disclosed pay. Plus, I don't think he's getting PPV points. On a side, Jones was paid $500,000.

I'm not trying to take away from Jon getting his black belt that's a great accomplishment, but belt level doesn't matter in MMA anymore. Everybody trains in BJJ, so unless you're a Fabricio Werdum or Gilbert Durinho level black belt your ranking is insignificant.
Benson Henderson (Who's my second favorite fighter) got his black belt and then proceeded to get tapped out by Anthony Pettis, who was a blue belt at the time, a few months later.
