UFC 300 has a stacked card with some of the best fighters on the roster. However, Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje may have been two of the important additions to the pay-per-view. Given how accomplished the duo is, many people have started to wonder how much they will earn for the triple-century event, and that’s what we will take a look at today.

The stage is set for an electrifying battle between Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje, two of the UFC’s most prominent figures. As fans eagerly await their clash for the BMF title this weekend, the buzz surrounding this event is reaching new heights. With an event as big as UFC 300, let us make an estimation of the financial windfall that awaits ‘Blessed’ and ‘The Highlight’ this weekend.

Estimation of UFC 300 payout for Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje

There is no doubt regarding how popular Max Holloway and Justin Gaethje are. They may not be champions at the moment, but they have been at the top of their careers. As such, according to reports, Gaethje, the BMF champion, has a base salary of between $500,000-$600,000, and as far as his biggest payout is concerned, ‘The Highlight’ made the most money when he fought Rafael Fiziev, pocketing $1,056,000. With these financial stats, we can assume that Gaethje could make around $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 on April 13th.

Meanwhile, Max Holloway, who’s been with the UFC for over a decade, has a base salary of around $500,000. He got his biggest paycheck when he fought Brian Ortega at UFC 231 and took home an estimated amount of $1,050,000. Hence, we can predict a similar kind of payout for ‘Blessed’ as we have estimated for Justin Gaethje. However, UFC 300 is going to be bigger than ever when it comes to bonuses after Dana White‘s recent announcement.

Dana White to give $300,000 bonus

During the recent press conference, fighters were asking Dana White for a raise in the bonus earnings. And what did the UFC CEO do? He obliged in one of the biggest ways possible. The typical bonus pay for any fighter usually stands at $50,000. This amount is awarded to the fighters who get ‘Fight of The Night’ honors, and to those who register impressive victories. Given how big of a landmark event it is on 13th April, White decided to grant $300,000 in bonus earnings for the fighters on the UFC 300 card.

“$300,000, it’s done,” Dana White confirmed when he was asked about the bonus by a reporter. In addition to the estimated million-dollar paycheck, they could cash in another $300,000. There is no doubt that they will try to outperform each other and grab the bonus since they are not two of the most exciting fighters on the UFC roster.

After a successful WrestleMania XL, the TKO group would be hoping that UFC 300 turns out to be a success as well. Moreover, Dana White may have big plans for 2024 and a UFC event in the Sphere is one of them, but the upcoming PPV is perhaps the most important event not only in 2024 but in the history of the promotion so far.
