I would wager most of the women are closer to being broke. Getting rich in the UFC is a pipe dream.Bad example
This is her second fight in the UFC. The first one she won
She was broke because of fighting on the regional scene
A better example would be a UFC vet who has racked a lot fans/wins and is still broke

“Negative in the account right now”
No, you were broke because you don’t know how to manage money and have no desirable skills for a real job.
Its LOW for a co-main but at the same time, why is she getting that spot? Its her 2nd UFC fight and she was 0-1 in the promotion fighting another unknown fighter, its low but at the same time, she didnt really deserved a whole lot more going into this fight.I agree, it is all but impossible to make a living on the regional scene which is why some people coming into UFC have been fighting so regularly. The low pay just means you have to fight more.
But to be fair 10K + 10K for win for the co-main event is pretty pathetic. That is like 2 months pay for a decent paying job and you have all the extra costs with being a fighter like paying for camp. If she does the standard UFC fight twice a year that is only 40K a year. Not enough to live on let alone set yourself up for a life outside of fighting.
UFC 248 Joanna and Weili made 100k to show while Izzy made 500k and Yoel made 350k.Not true
UFC pays men and women equally. A TOP 5 WMMA fighters makes the same as a TOP 5 make fighter
Now she could actually Cheyenne buys things now!
She deserved that bonus. That headkick was sweeeeeeeeeet.

At her level or even higher she probably should be having a day job.
