UFC increases performance bonuses to $100K

Ahead of UFC 324, Dana White confirmed the promotion is increasing its fight-night payouts, setting the two Fight of the Night and two Performance of the Night awards at $100,000 each.

The company is also introducing a $25,000 finish bonus for fighters who score a knockout or submission but do not receive one of the main awards, according to sources.

Those changes lift the guaranteed bonus pool per event to about $400,000, roughly double the previous baseline.

The timing aligns with the start of the promotion's new media rights agreement with Paramount, with UFC 324 serving as the inaugural event under the deal.

Additional details and implementation notes are reportedly available in the original report.
