Not much. The average pro mma guy makes about 600 per fight. We have a guy who is considering some fights in Mexico because they guarntee 2000/fight. In the UFC the purses are much higher. I would imagine several thousand for each fighter.
Being a pro fighter is tough work and unless you're really good, you don't get much pay. _________________ "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."

As far as pro fighting goes, the Boxers are the ones who rake it in, I think. _________________ Success is where preparation meets opportunity.

Yup. UFC guys are probably pretty close to that now too. But that's a really advanced level (obviously). _________________ "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."
