Tai Tuivasa’s UFC wages per fight
We know that the UFC is famous for not paying his fighters what they deserve as the company keeps earning billions thanks to the bulk of them. According to data from different outlets, Tai Tuivasa earns an estimated $500,000 per fight with sponsorships included. With a base salary of $100,000, this means that Tai gets most of his revenue from sponsorships. For this fight, Tai is expected to win more than that. Marcin Tybura made nearly $300,000 for his most recent fight, sponsors and everything included. He is expected to win more than that for this one.
