Actually, top Mma guys also get a cut of the PPV sales
Someone like GSP gets 250k to fight, 150k win bonus, and 1$ for every PPV buy up to 500k, and 1.25$ or 1.50$ for everything over 500k
So he pulls about $1.7M a fight. Nothing Like top boxing of course, but some guys do make pretty good money.
And on the lower and mid level, the money is about the same.
Also just to clarify in case
Mma is the sport, UFC is a league. Like football and NFL
ETA, I am a huge boxing fan and would love to see a return to the glory years. At least some more interesting bouts.
