UFC 263 Payouts: Diaz Earns $250K, Izzy Doubles It

Nate Diaz, Israel Adesanya, Marvin Vettori and Leon Edwards all earned six figures at UFC 263.

Nate Diaz and Israel Adesanya are among the biggest earners at UFC 263.

Partial salaries for UFC 263 — which took place Saturday, June 12 at Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona on pay-per-view (PPV) — were released by the Arizona Department of Gaming on Monday. The disclosed payouts deviate from the recent trend of commissions privatizing previously public fighter payouts.

The win bonuses for UFC 263 athletes were redacted. MMA Fighting reached out to the Arizona Department of Gaming, and a spokesperson for the commission said it would look into the matter.

Generally, fighters lower on the card get a win bonus equal to the show money. Headliners often take a flat purse with additional pay such as PPV splits, which are not disclosed. The below figures only show the flat show money for UFC 263 fighters.
