Breh....names? There is NO way possible that Devon Alexander, Amir Khan, Timothy Bradley, Keith Thurman, should all have been guaranteed more money than Jon Jones + Daniel Cormier COMBINED
We comparing regular HBO/Showtime free cable purses to UFC PAY PER VIEW, again PPV, payouts....and for Timothy Bradley to make 4x as much as Jon Jones (who's basically MMA's biggest star right now) is insane considering Timothy Bradley doesnt even HAVE a fanbase
The 18 boxers who fought each other on cable on December 11th, their purses grossed 5.1 million. That's about 283k per boxer on average

Comparing that with the 22 fighters who fought each other at UFC 182 on PPV at 59.99 per buy, their purses (including bonus/perfomance bonus/etc) grossed 1.5 million. That's about 68k on average
Daniel Cormier was guaranteed almost the SAME amount of money as Leonard Bundhu who isnt known at all. Cormier was guaranteed 90k and Bundhu was guaranteed 85k
