UFC 295 Purse: How much will Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall earn?
Estimating fighters’ purses and payouts is not the easiest job in the world. Fighters rarely reveal their contract details and there are several conditions to a fight purse. However, with numerous rumors and reports, we can arrive at a close enough ballpark figure.
According to some reports, Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall will both earn $256,000 at UFC 295. This is obviously the base pay and they could get a potential win bonus and performance bonus. This could take their earnings up to $400,000.
However, in his last fight, Sergei Pavlovich earned a reported $465,000. This included a $350,000 base pay, a $100,000 win bonus, and a $15,000 sponsorship fee. Therefore, if he is on the same contract, he could earn close to $500,000 with a potential $50,000 performance bonus.
Aspinall, on the other hand, earned $375,000 for his last fight against Marcin Tybura. This included his $210,000 base pay, $100,000 win bonus, $50,000 performance bonus, and a $5000 sponsorship share. Thus, if it is the same contract, he can earn close to $375,000 at UFC 295 again.
Therefore, it is clear that the win bonus will be the difference between the two fighters’ earnings. Thus, whoever wins between Sergei Pavlovich and Tom Aspinall will earn more.
