Paul Buentello: $80,000 (includes $20,000 win bonus)
vs. Gary Goodridge: $25,000

* - Fight postponed due to time constraints. Both fighters paid negotiated salaries.

I agree the even payed Levens and Lizama there money for showing up and not fighting . But Affliction could be in big trouble with that high payroll. next card will be about 1.5 mil in salaries my guess not 3.3 mil.

[The HOFF]

How did Sylvia make almost 3x and Arlovski 2.5x what they paid Fedor?

[MMAJOE]

My guess Since there was no win bonus .Fedor and Barnett made a percentage of pay preview buys . Guys like Chuck Liddell get the same type of contracts.
