Overview
- Starting with UFC 324 in Las Vegas, the four standard awards move to $100,000 each after more than a decade at $50,000.
- A new $25,000 bonus goes to winners by KO, TKO, or submission who are not selected for Fight of the Night or Performance of the Night.
- The guaranteed bonus pool per card increases from $200,000 to at least $400,000, according to Dana White’s comments to Sports Business Journal.
- UFC 324 marks the promotion’s first U.S. event on Paramount+, replacing the traditional pay‑per‑view model for numbered shows.
- Managers and reporters say base pay raises are being handled case by case, even as fans broadly welcome the expanded bonus structure.
