UFC 131
June 11, 2011
Rogers Arena
Vancouver, British Columbia
Canada
The Vancouver Athletic Commission’s procedures are a little more time-consuming and deliberate when compared to other regulatory bodies, so some of the UFC 131 post-event information was distributed later than most events.

The figures above do not include money paid by sponsors, which can roughly equal a fighter’s purse. In addition, the figures do not include any other “locker room” bonuses the UFC oftentimes pays at their discretion, or the publicy disclosed of “of the Night” bonuses. They also do not include portions of the pay-per-view revenue that some top-level fighters receive. Lastly, the figures do not include deductions for items such as insurance, licenses and taxes.
