- Confirmed: Anderson Silva signs new 10 fight deal with UFC.
- Confirmed: Michael Bisping vs. Anderson Silva, If Bisping Beats Vitor.
- Dana White: I know Cyborg can make the cut to Bantamweight. The UFC is willing to cover the costs and have Mike Dolce, of the Dolce Diet, get her to 135 pounds.
- Retirement: UFC Hall of Famer, Dan Severn, retires at the age of 54. Having amassed a professional record of 101-19-7.
Myles Jury: $16,000 (includes $8,000 win bonus)
def. Michael Johnson $14,000
Todd Duffee: $16,000 ($8,000 win bonus)
def. Phil De Fries: $14,000
Max Holloway: $24,000 (includes $12,000 win bonus)
def. Leonard Garcia: $20,000

def. Chris Cariaso: $12,000
Now, the usual disclaimer: The figures do not include deductions for items such as insurance, licenses and taxes. Additionally, the figures do not include money paid by sponsors, which can oftentimes be a substantial portion of a fighter's income. They also do not include any other "locker room" or special discretionary bonuses the UFC oftentimes pays. They also do not include portions of the pay-per-view revenue that some top-level fighters receive.
For example, as previously reported, UFC officials handed out additional $65,000 UFC 145 bonuses to Duffee ("KO of the Night"), Moraga ("Submission of the Night"), and Miller and Lauzon ("Fight of the Night").
In other words, the above figures are simply base salaries reported to the commission and do not reflect entire compensation packages for the event.

lol rankings
from the comments I can see that the categories are voted on separately, but its kind of funny that frankie edgar is like #8 on the p4p and like #5 in his division, while only one guy in his division (aldo obv) is ranked higher on the p4p list
rankings are pretty much a joke right now anyway. now that there is an official list, maybe they will work out a decent methodology over time.
I wonder how much drama this is going to create for their matchmaker when people are all, "omg wtf #10th in the division vs #2? FAVORITISM!11" Its really a good thing for the UFC from the give-the-fans-something-to-talk-about perspective. Still, the list's very existence is going to have an effect on matchmaking one way or another. No clear harm will come from that though.
