Alexander Volkanovski Career Earnings
Ever since Alexander Volkanovski signed for the UFC, he has gradually earned more money as his career has progressed. For his first UFC fight against Yusuke Kasuya, ‘The Great’ was paid around $22,500.
Compare Volkanovski’s UFC debut purse to his recent fights. For his UFC Lightweight Title clash with Islam Makhachev at UFC 284, ‘Volk’ reportedly pocketed $1 million. This emphasizes just how big of a star the Australian is and how much of a draw he is to fans all around the world.
The biggest purse of Alexander Volkanovski’s career to date in the UFC came in his last fight at UFC 290. The Aussie reported pocketed somewhere in the region of $1.5 million in total, taking into account his base salary, win bonus, sponsorship earnings, gate and his lion share of the pay-per-view (source: totalsportal.com).
The second larger purse of Volkanovski’s came at UFC 276 against Max Holloway in their trilogy bout. ‘The Great’ reportedly earned a guaranteed base salary of $1 million. It is likely that Volkanovski actually earned closer to $1.5m for the fight when you consider pay-per-view revenue, the gate and endorsement deals.
Just inside the octagon and in his career in the UFC, Alexander Volkanovski has earned $7,301,833 according to mmasalaries.com. This puts ‘The Great’ right up there as one of the highest paid UFC fighters ever. Of course, this is nowhere near the likes of what Conor McGregor, Israel Adesanya, Khabib Nurmagomedov or Jon Jones have earned in their career, but it’s still a lot of money!
Several other high caliber fights of Volkanovski’s have earned him a fortune too in recent years. Given that he was the champion in all of these fights, it comes as absolutely no surprise to discover that the 1988-born MMA superstar was raking in some huge purses.
For example, Volkanovski’s fight with The Korean Zombie at UFC 273 earned him in excess of $500,000. His fight with Islam Makhachev last time out also earned Volkanovski around $1m in total.
