Despite losing, Robbie Lawler’s still by far UFC 201’s highest earner according to disclosed payouts

The disclosed fighters' salaries for UFC 201 have been released and despite losing his belt to Tyron Woodley, Robbie Lawler was top of the pile.

Unsurprisingly, the event's headliners Lawler and Woodley banked the most moolah with the sum total of their disclosed earnings coming to a tasty $840,000. Woodley also received a $50,000 performance of the night bonus for knocking out Ruthless inside the first round as well as $30,000 in Reebok pay, while Lawler took home $40,000 from Reebok.

Jake Ellenberger and Jorge Masvidal were the only other fighters on the card to break the 100k mark, with co-main event winner Karolina Kowalkiewicz taking home a measly $38,000 for her title-shot securing performance against Rose Namajunas. Both Karolina and "Thug" also took home $50,000 apiece for winning the fight of the night.
