UFC fans can be rather curious. After all, everyone wants to know what’s going on with the fighters. UFC flyweight Jeff Molina recently shared a picture of a bonus payment he received for the fight at ESPN 86 in Las Vegas. The fight had taken place on October 23 last year against Daniel Lacerda. Molina won the fight through TKO and hence received a bonus.

Twitter’s reaction to Jeff Molina’s fight bonus tweet
However, it was the reactions that caught a lot of attention. Many people were not happy with the fighter’s post. This is because of the ongoing pay controversy the promotion is facing. Other Twitter users had some hilarious reactions. Many also wanted to know how much the UFC bonus was.
How much of that did you pocket after taxes, camp payouts, management, etc?

Lmao this is what they do to avoid paying fighters their worth, they throw you bonuses so you think “oh how nice of them” but in reality that’s nothing compared to all the money they are stealing from y’all.

While the fighter blurred the amount, he had initially forgotten to do so. Thus, he deleted the initial tweet and, later on, blurred the amount.
lol didn’t realize I didn’t blur out the full amt
I shall try again 😂— Jeff Molina 🇺🇸🇨🇴 (@jmolina_125) February 5, 2022
But Twitter users were quick, and a few posted Molina’s initial tweet revealing the amount.

Many people were busy discussing fighter pay and the percentage that the promotion gives them. But UFC President Dana White’s signature was another topic of discussion. People thought his signature was rather odd. As a result, people pointed it out.

What the fuck is Dana’s signature

Can we talk about Dana’s signature? It looks like the first three brush strokes of painting a face. https://t.co/2Ojl6rNa4N

Several others asked the fighters the motive behind posting the bonus months later. Whatever it may have been, it is great to see that Jeff Molina is happy with the work he is doing.
